• If the battery pack is charged while at
EN
a temperature below 0 degrees, a full
charge will give only around 50% of a
normal charge. Commence charging
after 1 hour or more at the prescribed
temperature.
9) Do not charge in a poorly ventilated
place.
NOTE:
Your battery pack is not fully charged at
the time of purchase. Be sure to charge
the battery before use.
How to charge
1. Plug the charger into the AC outlet.

but this is not a problem in terms of
safety.

charger.
1 Line up the alignment marks and
place the battery onto the dock on
the charger.

flashing until the battery cools down.
Charging will then begin automatically.
4. The charge lamp (green) will flash
slowly once the battery is approximate-
ly 80% charged.

6. If the temperature of the battery pack is
0°C or less, charging takes longer to

it will have approximately 50% of the
power of a fully charged battery at
normal operating temperature.
7. Consult an authorized dealer if the
charging lamp (green) does not turn off.
8. If a fully charged battery pack is insert-
ed into the charger again, the charging
