TO CHARGE THE 6.0V JET TURBO BATTERY PACK,
PLEASE FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS:
1.Plug wall pack charger into standard wall outlet.
2.Click the battery pack into the charger. Make certain the battery pack is
secure in charger.
3.To disconnect, push the red button on the front of the charger and
simultaneously slide battery pack out.
4.Your battery pack consists of new parts and materials; therefore, you charge
the battery pack for 5 1/2 hours the first two times you charge the battery.
Subsequent charges will require only 4 hours.
5.After charging for 4 hours, the battery will feel warm. This condition is normal
for fully charged batteries.
6.Charging the battery pack for more than 4 hours will not give you longer
running time. 4 hours is all that is required for a fully charged battery pack.
7.Unlike alkaline batteries, where the power loss is gradual, a NiCd (NickelCadmium) battery will run for its normal running time, depending on your
particular vehicle, and then lose most of its power at once. It is time to recharge
the battery pack.
8.After use, the battery pack will be hot! Wait at least 20 minutes until the
battery pack cools before recharging. Recharging a warm or hot battery pack
will greatly reduce the number of times your battery pack can be recharged.
CAUTIONS:
• DO NOT RECHARGE BATTERY PACK IF IT’S HOT. ALLOW TO COOL
BEFORE RECHARGING.
• DO NOT CHARGE A BATTERY PACK THAT SHOWS LEAKAGE OR
CORROSION.
• DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THE BATTERY PACK. THE BATTERY PACK IS
A SEALED NiCd (NICKEL-CADMIUM) BATTERY.
• DO NOT DISPOSE OF THE BATTERY PACK IN FIRE.
• EXERCISE CAUTION IN HANDLING A HOT BATTERY PACK.
• IF BATTERY PACK AND/OR CHARGER ARE WET, THOROUGHLY DRY
BEFORE CHARGING.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Here are our answers to some of the questions our customers ask most often.
Take a second to read them over. Maybe the answer to your question is here.
ANSWERS!
Can I leave my battery pack for
longer than 4 hours?
QUESTIONS?
Can I leave my charger plugged
in all the time?
Although 4 hours is all you need for a full charge,
leaving the battery pack charging for a brief
additional period will do no harm. However,
“overcharging” the battery pack on a regular basis
will decrease battery pack life.
Just as a matter of basic electrical safety, we do not
recommend this practice.
Although you can do this occasionally without harm
to the battery pack, we don’t recommend it as a
routine practice. To cut down on waiting time, you
might want to buy and charge an extra battery pack.
We discourage this practice. Although it poses no
safety hazard, it may significantly reduce battery
pack life.
After many, many uses, the battery pack’s average
running time will start to decrease: it’s nearing the
end of its life.
At room temperature, the battery pack will hold a
charge for a good while; at warmer temperatures, it
will discharge more quickly. For gift giving, you
can certainly charge your battery pack a day or so
beforehand and wrap the battery pack and vehicle
together. That way the fun can start right away!
From the standpoint of electrical safety, we
recommend storing the battery pack in a
discharged condition.
Can I charge my battery pack for
less than 4 hours if I don’t need
the full running time?
Can I recharge my battery pack
before it’s fully discharged?
How will I know if my battery
pack is “wearing out”?
How long will a fully-charged
battery pack hold its charge if
I’m not actually using it?
If I’m going to store my battery
pack for a long time, should I put
away charged or discharged?
