red lights will flash together with rapid blinking. The battery will
no longer charge and should be returned to a service center or a
collection site for recycling.

LEAVING THE BATTERY IN THE CHARGER
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the red
lights glowing indefinitely. The charger will keep the battery pack
fresh and fully charged. This charger features an automatic tune-up
mode which equals or balances the individual cells in the battery

be tuned up weekly or whenever the battery no longer delivers the
same amount of work. To use the automatic tune-up mode, place
the battery pack in the charger and leave it for at least 8 hours.
Important Charging Notes

pack is charged when the air temperature is between 65°F and
75°F (18°- 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air
temperature below +40°F (+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C).
