Lithium-iON Batteries
NOTE: The iON+ 24VBAT‑XR12 lithium‑iON battery packs
do not develop a "memory" when charged after only a partial

battery packs before charging them again.
• Use the battery indicator lights to determine when to charge
your iON+ 24VBAT‑XR12 lithium‑iON battery packs.
• You can "top‑off" your battery packs' charge before starting
a big job or after a long day of use.
