OPERATION
CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK
When using a tool continuously, the battery pack may
become hot. A hot battery pack may be placed directly onto
the charger port but charging will not begin until the battery
temperature cools to within acceptable temperature range.
When a hot battery pack is placed on the charger, the orange
LED will begin flashing and the green LED will be off. When
the battery pack cools, the charger will automatically begin
charging.
