IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR RECHARGING HOT BAI-rERIES
When using your drill-driver continuously, the batteries in your battery pack will become hot. You should let a hot
battery pack cool down for approximately 30 minutes before attempting to recharge.
Note: This situation only occurs when continuous use of your drill causes the batteries to become hot. It does
not occur under normal circumstances. Refer to "CHARGING BA'n'ERY PACK" for normal recharging of
batteries. If the charger does not charge your battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery
pack and charger to your nearest Sears repair center for electrical check.
