Appropriate Use of Battery Charger
• Make sure the terminals of the battery charger
are not contaminated with liquid, grease, or other
substances before charging the battery pack. If
you notice that the terminals of the battery charger
are contaminated, be sure to wipe or take them
off before use. The life of the battery pack may
adversely be affected when the terminals are
clogged with the dust or dirt which becomes solid
with liquid or grease.
• During charging, the charger may become slightly
warm. This is normal.
