1. The charger was designed to fast
charge the battery only when the battery
temperatrue is between 32º F (0º C) and
113º F (45º C). If the battery pack is too
hot or too cold, the charger will not fast
charge the battery. (This may happen if
the battery pack is hot from heavy use).
When the battery temperature returns
to between 32º F (0º C) and 113º F (45º
C), the charger will automatically begin
charging.
2. A substantial drop in operating time per
charge may mean that the battery pack is
nearing the end of its life and should be
replaced.
