and hold the button on the backside of the
battery pack.

this indicates the batter pack is fully charged.

indicates the battery pack is slightly charged.
When no lights illuminate, this indicates the
battery pack is completely discharged.

Plug charger cord into your standard power
outlet, then slide the battery pack into charger
(Fig. 8).
The charger’s green indicator will begin to
“BLINK”. This indicates that the battery is
receiving a fast charge. Fast-charging will
automatically stop when the battery pack is
fully charged.
When the indicator light stops “BLINKING”
(and becomes a steady green light) fast
charging is complete.
When you begin the charging process of the
battery pack, a steady green light could also
mean the battery pack is too hot or too cold.
The purpose of the light is to indicate that the
battery pack is fast-charging. It does not
indicate the exact point of full charge. The
light will stop blinking in less time if the
battery pack was not completely discharged.
When the battery pack is fully charged,
unplug the charger (unless you're charging
another battery pack) and slip the battery
pack back into the tool handle.
