CHARACTERISTICS
After inserting the battery pack into the charger, the battery
is automatically charged (red control lamp is illuminated
continuously).
When a hot or cold battery pack is inserted into the charger
(fl ashing red lamp), charging begins automatically once the
battery reaches the correct charging temperature (+5 °C –
+40 °C). The maximum charging current is fl owing when the
temperature of the li-ion-battery is between +5 °C and +40 °C.
The battery charging time is between 1 - 20 minutes (at 1.5
Ah), depending on the state of discharge.
When the battery is fully charged, the LED on the charger
changes from red to green.
Recharge the battery pack when convenient for you and your
job. MILWAUKEE batteries do not develop a memory when
charged after only a partial discharge. It is not necessary to run
down the battery pack before charging it.
As a general practice, it is best to unplug battery chargers and
remove batteries when not in use. No battery pack damage will
occur if the charger and battery pack are left plugged in.
If both LEDs fl ash alternately, the rechargeable battery is either
not fully installed or there is a fault with the battery or charger.
Take the charger and battery out of use immediately for
safety reasons, and have them inspected by a MILWAUKEE
customer service centre.
The charger can charge two battery packs at the same time.
