battery pack will become hot, You shou]d let a hot bat-
tery pack cool down for approximately 30 minutes before
attempting to recharge. When the battery pack becomes

come on instead of the red LED. After 30 minutes, reinsert
the battery pack in the charger. If the green LED continues
to remain on, return battery pack to your nearest Sears

occur under normal circumstances. Refer to "CHARG-

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
