NOTE: This could also mean a problem with a charger.
If the charger indicates a problem, take the charger and battery pack to be tested at an authorised service centre.
Hot/Cold Pack Delay
When the charger detects a battery that is too hot or too cold, it automatically starts a hot/cold pack delay,
suspending charging until the battery has reached an appropriate temperature. The charger then automatically
switches to the pack charging mode. This feature ensures maximum battery life. A cold battery pack will charge
at about half the rate of a warm battery pack. The battery pack will charge at that slower rate throughout the
entire charging cycle and will not return to maximum charge rate even if the battery warms.
Lithium-Ion Battery Packs
STANLEY Engineered Fastening PB Series Li-Ion tools are designed with an Electronic Protection System that
will protect the battery against overloading, overheating or deep discharge.
The tool will automatically turn off if the Electronic Protection System engages. If this occurs, place the Li-Ion
battery on the charger until it is fully charged.

Storage Recommendations
•
The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold. For
optimum battery performance and life, store battery packs at room temperature when not in use.
•
For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully charged battery pack in a cool, dry place out of the
charger for optimal results.
NOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely depleted of charge. The battery pack will need to be re-
charged before use.
