7.2.5 Reading the charge status LED display on
Li‑ion batteries 12
NOTE
The charge status cannot be indicated while the power
tool is in operation. LED 1 blinks when the battery is
fully discharged or when it is too hot (temperature
above 80°C). The battery must then be inserted in
the charger. If all 4 LEDs blink, this indicates that the
power tool has been overloaded or has overheated.
The Li-ion battery features a charge status LED dis-
play. The charge status is indicated by the LEDs on the
battery during charging (please refer to the operating
instructions for the charger). When the battery is not
in use, pressing one of the battery release buttons
or inserting the battery into the power tool causes
the battery charge status to be displayed by the four
LEDs for three seconds.
See section: 2.10 Li‑ion battery charge status
8.2 Care of the power tool
CAUTION
Keep the power tool, especially its grip surfaces,
clean and free from oil and grease. Do not use
cleaning agents which contain silicone.
The outer casing of the power tool is made from
impact-resistant plastic. Sections of the grip are made
from a synthetic rubber material.
