Preparing To Work - SNOWJOE SUN JOE 24V-HCS-CT Manual Del Operador

When to Charge the iON+ 24V Lithium-
iON Battery
NOTE: The iON+ 24V lithium-iON battery pack does not
develop a "memory" when charged after only a partial
discharge. Therefore, it is not necessary to run down the
battery pack before inserting the charger plug.
• Use the battery indicator lights to determine when to charge
your iON+ 24V lithium-iON battery pack.
• You can "top-off" your battery pack's charge before starting
a big job or after a long day of use.
Charging the Battery
1. Press the push lock buttons on the battery to pull it out of
the equipment (Fig. 1).
