OPERATION

5-LED INDICATOR ON BATTERY PACK
This lithium-ion battery pack is equipped with a 5-LED indicator, press the power button to display the charge level or its working condition, the LED indicator will be illuminated for 10 seconds

BATTERY PROTECTION

The battery circuitry protects the battery pack from extreme temperature, over-discharge, and over-charge. To protect the battery from damage and prolong its life, the battery pack circuitry will turn off the battery pack if it becomes overloaded or if the temperature becomes too high during use. This may happen in extremely high torque, binding, and stalling situations. The battery pack will shut down with power indicator shinning red for 10s when its operating temperature exceeds 70°C, and will begin normal operation when it returns to 67°C.

Notice: A significantly reduced run time after fully charging the battery pack indicates that the batteries are near the end of their usable life and must be replaced.

COLD WEATHER OPERATION
This Lithium-Ion battery pack will provide optimal performance in temperatures between 10°C and 26°C. When the battery pack is very cold, it may “pulse” for the first minute of use to warm itself. Put the battery pack on a tool and use the tool in a light application. After about a minute, the battery pack will have warmed itself and will operate normally.

WHEN TO CHARGE THE BATTERY PACK

NOTICE: Lithium-Ion battery packs are shipped partially charged. Before using it the first time, fully charge the battery pack.
NOTICE: This battery pack is equipped with an advanced self-maintenance function to extend the battery life. Depending on the battery charge,it will automatically performa self-discharge operation after one month of storage. After this self-maintenance, the battery pack will enter sleep mode and maintain 30% of its charge capacity. If stored for a month or longer, fully recharge the battery before the next use. (Not applicable to BA2240T which is equipped with other advanced technology to extend the battery life.) It is not necessary to run down the battery pack charge before recharging. The Lithium- Ion battery can be charged at any time and will not develop a “memory” when charged after only a partial discharge. Use the power indicator to determine when the battery pack needs to be recharged.

HOW TO CHARGE THE BATTERY PACK
