APPLICATIONS
You may use this product for the following purposes:
 Charging 12 V RIDGID Lithium-ion battery packs
CAUTION:
If at any point during the charging process none
of the LEDs are lit, remove the battery pack from
the charger to avoid damaging the product. DO
NOT insert another battery. Return the charger and
battery to your nearest service center for service
or replacement.
CAUTION:
Charge in a well ventilated area. Do not block
charger vents. Keep them clear to allow proper
ventilation.
 For use with 12 V lithium-ion battery packs, see tool/
appliance/battery pack/charger correlation supplement
988000-313.
CHARGING
See Figure 3, page 10.
Battery packs are shipped in a low charge condition to
prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge
them before first use.
If the charger does not charge your battery pack under
normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and
charger to your nearest repair center for electrical check.
For the location of your nearest repair center, please call
1-866-539-1710.
 Make sure the power supply is normal household voltage,
120 volts, AC only, 60 Hz.
 Connect the charger to a power supply.
 Attach the battery pack to the charger by aligning the
raised ribs on the battery pack with the grooves in the
charger, then slide the battery pack into the charger.
 Press down on the battery pack to be sure contacts on
the battery pack engage properly with contacts in the
charger.
 Do not place the charger in an area of extreme heat or
cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.
NOTE: The charger and battery pack should be placed
in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F
but less than 96°F.
 The battery pack will become slightly warm to the
touch while charging. This is normal and does not
indicate a problem.
 After charging is complete, the green LED will remain on
until the battery pack is removed.
 When the battery pack is fully charged, remove it from
the charger.
 To remove the battery pack from the charger, pull up on
the battery pack.
