LED FUNCTIONS OF CHARGER
See Figure 2.
CHARGER LED WILL BE ON TO INDICATE STATUS OF
CHARGER AND BATTERY PACK:
n Red LED on, Green LED off = Power to charger is on.
n Red LED flashing, Green LED off = Battery is being
tested.
n Red LED flashing, Green LED flashing = Battery is
defective.
n Red LED on, Green LED flashing = Battery is
charging.
n Red LED off, Green LED on = Battery is fu lly
charged.
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
Use only Ryobi One+ 18 V and 14.4 V battery packs
with this charger:
Battery packs for this tool are shipped in a low charge
condition to prevent possible problems. Therefore, you
should charge them until the green LED on the front of
the charger comes on.
NOTE: The charger will also charge Ryobi One + 18V and
14.4V Ni-Cd and Li-ion battery packs.
CHARGING A COOL BATTERY PACK
If the charger does not charge the battery pack under
normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and
charger to your nearest Authorised Service Center for
electrical check.
n Charge the battery pack only with the charger
provided.
n Make sure the power supply is normal household
voltage, 220V-240V, 50-60Hz, AC only.

OPERATION
n Make sure the latches on each side of the battery
pack snap into place and the battery pack is secured
in the charger before beginning operation.
n Connect the charger to the power supply.
n Place the battery pack in the charger aligning raised
rib on the battery pack with the groove in the charger.
n Press down on the battery pack to be sure contacts
on the battery pack engage properly with contacts in
the charger.
NOTE: After charging is complete, the green LED will
remain on until the battery pack is removed from the
charger or charger is disconnected from the power
supply.
n
The battery pack will become slightly warm to the
touch while charging. This is normal and does not
indicate a problem.
n Do not place the charger and battery pack in an
area of extreme heat or cold. They will work best
at normal room temperature.
NOTE: The charger and battery pack should be
placed in a location where the temperature is
more than 10°C but less than 38°C.
n When batteries become fully charged, unplug the
charger from the power supply and remove the
battery pack.
n To remove the battery pack from the charger, depress
the latches on each side of the battery pack.
CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK
When using a tool continuously, the batteries in the
battery pack will become hot. You should let a hot battery
pack cool down for approximately 30 minutes before
attempting to recharge.
NOTE: This situation only occurs when continuous use
of a tool causes the batteries to become hot. It does not
occur under normal circumstances. Refer to "CHARGING
A COOL BATTERY PACK" for normal recharging of
batteries. If the charger does not charge your battery
pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery
pack and charger to your nearest Authorised Service
Center for electrical check.
