Charging
1.
Plug the battery charger into the proper AC voltage source. Charging light will flash in green color repeatedly.
2.
Insert the battery cartridge into charger until it stops adjusting to the guide of charger. Terminal cover of charger can be opened with
inserting and closed with pulling out the battery cartridge.
3.
When the battery cartridge is inserted, the red charging light will light up and charging will begin with a preset brief melody sound
coming out for assurance as to which sound will come out to notify the completion of charging.
4.
With finish of charge, the charging light will change from red one to green one and the melody sound or buzzer sound (a long beep)
comes out to notify completion of charge.
5.
Charging time varies by temperature (10°C (50°F) – 40°C (104°F)) that battery cartridge is charged at and conditions of the battery
cartridge, such as a battery cartridge which is new or has not been used for a long period of time.
6.
After charging, remove the battery cartridge from the charger and unplug the charger from the power source.
Changing melody of completed charging
1.
Inserting the battery cartridge into charger brings out last preset brief melody sound of completed charging.
2.
Removing and re-inserting it within five seconds after this action makes the melody sound change.
3.
Every time removing and re-inserting it within another five seconds after this, the melody sound changes in order.
4.
When the desired melody sound comes out, leave the battery cartridge being inserted and the charge will begin. When a "short beep"
mode is selected, no completed charging signals comes out. (Silent Mode)
5.
With finish of charge, the green light remains lit with the red light going out and the melody sound preset at the insertion of battery
cartridge or buzzer sound (a long beep) comes out to notify completion of charge. (In selected silent mode, no sounds come out.)
6.
Preset melody sound remains stored even when the charger is unplugged.

NOTE:
• The battery charger is for charging DOLMAR-battery cartridge. Never use it for other purposes or for other manufacturer's batteries.
• If charging light may flash in red color, battery condition is as below and charging may not start.
– Battery cartridge from just-operated tool or battery cartridge that has been left in a location exposed to direct sunlight for a long time.
– Battery cartridge that has been left for a long time in a location exposed to cold air.
When the battery cartridge is too hot, charging will begin after the cooling fan installed in the charger cools the battery cartridge. Charg-
ing will begin after the battery cartridge temperature reaches the degree at which charging is possible.
• If the charging light flashes alternately in green and red color, charging is not possible. The terminals on the charger or battery cartridge
are clogged with dust or the battery cartridge is worn out or damaged.
