PROBLEM: No battery in charger, but CHARGING, BATTERY FAULT , AND TEMPERATURE LEDs are ON.
CAUSE: Dirt or foreign objects are in the charger battery pocket.
SOLUTION: Unplug charger from outlet. Remove any dirt or foreign objects from charger battery pocket.
If the LEDs continue to remain ON, the charger may be defective. Return charger to an
Authorized Greenlee Service Center.
PROBLEM: POWER ON LED is ON, battery is inserted, but CHARGE LED is OFF and no other LEDs
are on.
CAUSE: Battery not making contact with terminals in charger battery pocket. Terminals misaligned.
SOLUTION: Realign terminals. Push battery in firmly. Do not "slam" the battery into the battery pocket.
PROBLEM: BATTERY FAULT LED is ON.
CAUSE: The battery has less than the minimum voltage necessary for proper charging.
This indicates one of the following:
• The battery is new and has not yet been charged.
• The battery has been used and has discharged in storage.
• The battery is exhausted and needs to be replaced.
• The battery is damaged and needs to be replaced.
SOLUTION: Place the battery into the charger to begin the low-current, or maintenance charge mode. A new
battery should be left in the charger for one hour; a battery that has been used should be left in
the charger for twelve hours. After the suggested maintenance charge, completely remove the
battery from the charger and place it back into the charger.
• If the Charge LED comes on, the battery is good. Leave the battery in the charger for the
normal one-hour charge.
• If the Battery Fault LED comes on again, the battery is exhausted or damaged and needs
to be replaced.
Please dispose of used batteries in accordance with federal, state, and local laws.
