full charge.
CHARGING INDICATOR
This charger is a "smart charger" that is designed
to provide you information on the status of your
battery charge. Indicator lights n the table below will
show the charging status.
If you receive a defective battery indication light (red
on), insert a new battery to determine if the charger
is OK. If the new battery charges correctly, then the
original pack is defective and should be returned to
a service center or recycling service center. If the
new battery pack displays the same problem as the
original Battery Pack, have the charger tested at an
authorized service center.

BATTERY TEMPERATURE PROTECTION
This charger has a battery temperature protection
feature. When the charger detects a battery pack that
is too hot (the light will be red and flash), its internal fan
will rapidly cool the battery to the correct temperature.
When the charger detects a battery pack that is too cold
(the light will be red and flash), it automatically activates
the protection circuit, and suspends charging until the
battery pack has reached the correct temperature .The
charging process will then automatically begin (the light
will be green and flash). This feature ensures maximum
battery life.
LEAVING THE BATTERY PACK IN THE
CHARGER
If a fully charged battery pack is left in the charger, the
Light will remain green. The battery pack will remain
charging with a maintenance trickle current.
DEFECTIVE BATTERY PACKS
This charger will detect a defective battery pack. When
a defective battery pack is inserted into the charger, the
charger will try to repair it. This process will last about
30mins (the light will be green and flash). If the repair
is successful, the charger will automatically begin to
charge the battery pack to the highest capacity possible
(the light will be green and flash). If the light becomes
solid red, the battery pack is dead.
NOTE: Repaired battery packs are still usable but
should not be expected to perform as much work as
new battery packs.
MOUNTING CHARGER ONTO THE
WALL
Install screws (not provided) in the wall .Use screws
sufficiently strong to hold the combined weight of the
charger and battery pack. (See Fig. B)
