Warning! Do not charge the battery at ambient temperatures
below 10 °C or above 40 °C. Recommended charging
temperature: approx. 24 °C.
Note: The charger will not charge a battery if the cell
temperature is below approximately 10 °C or above 40 °C.
The battery should be left in the charger and the
charger will begin to charge automatically when the cell
temperature warms up or cools down.
Note: To ensure maximum performance and life of lithium-ion
battery packs, charge the battery pack fully before first
use.

Hot/Cold Pack Delay
When the charger detects a battery that is too hot or too cold,
it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay, the green LED
(9a) will flash intermittently, while the red LED (9b) will remain
on continuously, suspending charging until the battery has
reached an appropriate temperature. The charger then
automatically switches to the pack charging mode. This
feature ensures maximum battery life.

Warning! Charger will not charge a faulty battery pack, which
may be indicated by the charging light(s) staying OFF. Take
charger and battery pack to an authorized service center if
light(s) stay(s) OFF.
Hot/Cold Pack Delay
When the charger detects a battery pack that is too hot or too
cold, it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay, suspending
charging until the battery pack has reached an appropriate
temperature. The charger then automatically switches to the
pack charging mode. This feature ensures maximum battery
pack life.
A cold battery pack may charge at a slower rate than a warm
battery pack.
The hot/cold pack delay will be indicated by the green light(s)
(9a) continuing to blink and with the red light (9b) continuously
ON or blinking. Once the battery pack has reached an
appropriate temperature, the red light will turn OFF and the
charger will resume the charging process.
