I
Do
not use force when inserting the battery cartridge.
If the cartridge does not slide in easily,
it
is
not being inserted correctly.
Charging
Plug the fast charger into your power
source. Insert the battery cartridge
so
that
the plus and minus terminals on the bat-
tery cartridge are on the same sides
as
their
respective markings on the
fast
charger.
Insert the cartridge fully into the port
so
that
it
rests on the charger port floor.
Press
the
start
button (red). The charging
light will come on and charging will begin.
If the charging light does not come on, press the reset button (yellow) first, then the start
button (red). If the charging light goes out within
10
seconds even after pressing the
reset button and
start
button
a
couple of times, the battery cartridge
is
dead. (CAUTION:
Wait
for more than
5
seconds after the charging light goes out to press the
reset
button
again.) Replace
it
with a new one. When the charging light goes out after about one our,
you may remove the fully charged battery cartridge.
After charging, unplug the charge from the power source.
CAUTION
:
0Your new battery cartridge
is
not charged. You will need to charge
it
before use.
*Do
not keep the button pressed in with tape,
etc.
or the circuit will not function pro-
perly. Also,
a
malfunction of the charger may result possibly causing overheating, etc.
If you try to charge
a
cartridge from
a
just-operated tool, sometimes the charging light
will not come on. If this occurs,
let
the cartridge cool off for
a
while. Then re-insert
it
and try to charge
it
once more.
When you charge
a
new battery cartridge or
a
battery cartridge which has not been used
for
a
long period,
it
may not accept
a
full charge. This
is
a
normal condition and does
not indicate
a
problem. You can recharge the battery cartridge fully after discharging
it
almost completely
a
couple
of
times.
If you wish to charge two battery cartridges, allow
15
minutes between chargings on the
fast charger.
