CAUTION:
If at any point during the charging process none
of the LEDs are lit, remove the battery pack from
the charger to avoid damaging the product. DO
NOT insert another battery. Return the charger and
battery to your nearest service center for service
or replacement.
CAUTION:
Charge in a well ventilated area. Do not block
charger vents. Keep them clear to allow proper
ventilation.
NOTE: Charge only RIDGID lithium-ion batteries on the
RIDGID lithium-ion charger and RIDGID nickel-cadmium
batteries on RIDGID nickel-cadmium chargers. These
batteries and chargers are not interchangeable.
Refer to the General Safety Rules for compatibility.
THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS ARE
FOR RIDGID 24V LITHIUM-ION BATTERY
PACKS AND THE 24V RIDGID LITHIUM-ION
CHARGER.
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
NOTE: New 24 Volt lithium-ion battery packs will not
work without first being charged. Before first time use,
charge the battery pack to activate it.
It is not necessary to drain the battery pack completely
before recharging. Lithium-ion battery packs have no
“memory” and can be recharged at any time. It is therefore
possible to charge the battery pack before extended usage
even if the battery pack is not completely drained of charge.
Use the charge level indicator to determine the amount of
charge in the battery pack.
Lithium-ion batteries deliver fade free power for their entire
run time. 24 Volt lithium-ion tools will not gradually lose
power due to decreasing battery charge. Instead, power from
the battery pack will drop from full to zero once the full charge
has been drained from the battery. Once this happens, the
tool’s power drops from full to zero, and recharging of the
battery is required
