Putting into operation:
Loading the Ni-Cd battery pack
1. Check that your mains voltage
is the same as that quoted on
the rating plate. Insert the
charger in a socket-outlet.
2. Pull the battery pack out of the
handle (Figure 5) by depres-
sing the clips on the side.
3. nsert the battery pack in the
charger. The red light comes
as a sign that the battery pack
is being charged. The green
LED comes on to signal that
the charging is completed. It
takes 1 hour to charge an
empty battery. The temperature
bat- of the battery may rise slightly
during the charging operation.
This is normal.
If the battery pack fails to become
charged, please check
whether there is voltage at the
socket-outlet
whether there is proper contact
at the charging contacts on the
charger.
If the battery still fails to become
charged, please return
the charger
the battery pack
to our Customer Service

Timely recharging of the Ni-Cd bat-
tery pack is recommended in the
interest of long battery life.
Recharging is always necessary
when you notice that the power of
the battery-powered drill/screwdri-
ver is decreasing.
Never allow the battery pack to
discharge completely. This will
result in damage to the Ni-Cd bat-
tery pack!
