Reading the Lamps
This charger is provided with a charging time lamp which displays estimated charging
time, and a charging status lamp which displays the charging status.
(a) Charging Time Display
After beginning charging, the charging time lamp lights red with about 30 minutes
remaining, lights orange with about 20 minutes remaining, and lights green with about
five minutes remaining. When charging is complete, the charging status lamp lights
green.
(b) High Temp Standby Display
Charging will not begin if the battery temperature is high. When this happens, the
charging time of lamp flashes red (0.6 second cycle). Leave the battery in the charger, and
charging will begin automatically when the temperature decreases.
(c) Charging Standby Display
Because the charger prioritizes power source output, charging is paused when the
cordless tool switch is triggered during charging. When this happens, the charging time
lamp will repeatedly flash (1 second cycle) in the current charging time display color (red/
orange/green). After the switch is released, charging automatically resumes in
approximately one minute, and the lamp will light continuously.
(d) Unable to Charge Display
When the charger or the battery is malfunctioning, the charging status lamp flickers
orange (0.2 second cycle). (See Table 2)
