after only a partial discharge. It is not necessary to run
down the battery pack before placing it on the charger.

your MILWAUKEE Li-Ion battery pack.
• You can "Top-Off" your battery pack's charge before
starting a big job or long day of use.

battery packs will not charge if the Radio + Charger
is not plugged in. Place the battery pack onto the bay
by sliding the pack on from the top of the bay. The
red light will turn on, either flashing (pack is too hot
or cold) or continuous (pack is charging).
• A fully discharged battery pack with an internal tem-
perature in the normal range will charge in about 30
to 185 minutes, depending on the battery pack.
• Heavily cycled batteries may take longer to charge
completely.
• The Fuel Gauge lights on the battery pack are
displayed as the pack is being charged, indicating
how fully charged the pack is.
