A battery charge indicator is located on the
control panel. The flashing LED indicates the
battery is charging. A continuous LED indicates
the battery is fully charged.
A battery may last much longer if it is charged
as soon as it starts to loose power and is not
discharged completely.

WARNING
Always use the Remington brand
charger
to charge the battery.
Never attempt to use any other
charger. Use of a different
char-
ger may cause a fire or e×plosion
and will void the warranty.
You can lengthen the life of your battery by
following some simple guidelines.
* Always charge the battery indoors in
a garage or other covered area where
it will be dry and protected from the
weather.
* Only charge the battery when the tem-
perature is at least 32°F (0°C) - above
freezing - but not more than +104°F
(+40°C). Charging in lower or higher
temperatures can be harmful to the bat-
tery.
* Always keep the battery away from
water, heat sources (stoves, radiators,
open flames,
etc.),
and hazardous
chemicals.
* Never use the charger with any other
product. Never operate the charger if it
is damaged. If a cord or the charger unit
has been damaged, replace the charger
or have it repaired by a qualified service
center.
* Do not worry about leaving the battery
charging for longer than l 0 hours - the
battery cannot be overcharged and will
not be damaged after l0 hours. It will
not impact the battery to leave it on the
charger for up to six months.
Always fully recharge the battery immediately
after each use, no matter how short a time it was
used. Fully recharge even if the green LED lights
on the battery power indicator are still green.
This is important inorder to maintain m aximuln
mower performance and extend the useful life of
the battery. |fthe red LED comes on while using
the mower, stop the mower and either replace
the battery with an optional backup battery or
recharge the battery completely.
Unlike "smart batteries"
found in devices
such as cell phones, the Remington brand bat-
tery should NOT be run until it is completely
drained. Running the battery until it is fully
depleted will reduce the long-term performance
of the battery.
Leaving the battery on the charger for an
extended period of time (up to six months)
will not damage the battery. It is impossible to
overcharge the battery.
IMPORTANT: If a depleted battery is stored, the
battery's charging capacity will decrease.
