Fuel Gauge
Use the Fuel Gauge to determine the lowest battery
pack's remaining run time. When less than 10% of
charge is left, 1 light on the fuel gauge will flash 4
times. When the battery reaches 0% charge, 1 light
on the fuel gauge will flash 8 times. Charge the bat-
tery packs.
If the Fuel Gauge doesn't appear to be working,
place the battery pack on the charger and charge
as needed.
Immediately after using the battery pack, the Fuel
Gauge may display a lower charge than it will if
checked a few minutes later. The battery cells "re-
cover" some of their charge after resting.
