TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods Legislation
requirements.
Transportation of those batteries has to be done in accordance with
local, national, and international provisions and regulations.
Batteries can be transported by road without further requirements.
Commercial transport of lithium-ion batteries by third parties is

transport are exclusively to be carried out by appropriately trained
persons and the process has to be accompanied by corresponding
experts.
When transporting batteries:
• Ensure that the battery contact terminals are protected and
insulated to prevent short circuit.
• Ensure that the battery pack is secured against movement within
the packaging.
• Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leaking.
• Check with the forwarding company for further advice.
CHARACTERISTICS
After inserting the battery pack into the reception of the charger, the
battery pack will automatically be charged (red lamp is illuminated
continuously).
When a hot or cold battery pack is inserted into the charger (fl ashing
red lamp), charging will begin automatically once the battery pack
reaches the correct charging temperature (0°C – 65°C). The
maximum charging current is fl owing when the temperature of the
battery pack is between 0°C and 65°C.
The battery pack's charging time is between 25 min and 130 min (at
1.5 Ah battery), depending on the state of discharge.
Once the battery pack is fully charged, the LED on the charger
changes from red to green and the LEDs on the battery pack go out.
It is not necessary to remove the battery pack after charging. The
battery pack can be stored permanently in the charger without the
danger of it being overcharged.
If the light indicator fl ashes red and green, check that the battery
pack is fully seated into the bay. Remove the battery pack and
reinsert it. If the light continues to fl ash red and green, the battery
pack may be extremely hot, cold, or wet. Allow the battery pack to
cool down, warm up, or dry out and then reinsert it. If the problem
persists, contact a MILWAUKEE service centre.
Two 18 V battery packs can be inserted into the charger at the same
time, one on each side of the charger. It will then charge any other
attached batteries in sequence in a clockwise rotation.
