Charging the Battery Pack
Important: For best results, your battery tool should be
charged in a location where the temperature is more than 5°
C (41° F) but less than 40° C (104° F). To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, do not store outside or in vehicles.
Charging time will be increased if not charged within this
range.

to the charger (Figure 12), then plug the power cord into
a power socket.
2. Turn the battery upside down and line up the battery terminal
with the slot in the charger (Figure 12 and Figure 13).
