is normal for fully charged batteries.
5. New battery packs must be charged for 5 1 ⁄
2
hours the first two times
charged. Subsequent charges will require only 4 hours. Charging the
battery pack for more than 4 hours will not give you a longer running time.
4 hours is all that is required for a fully charged battery pack
6. Unlike alkaline batteries, where the power loss is gradual, a NiCd (Nickel-Cadmium) battery will run for its
normal running time and then lose most of its power at once. It is now time to recharge the battery pack.
7. 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 IT TO COOL BEFORE RECHARGING.
" DO NOT RECHARGE A BATTERY PACK THAT SHOWS LEAKAGE OR CORROSION.
" DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THE BATTERY PACK. THIS PACK IS A SEALED RECHARGEABLE
NICKEL-CADMIUM BATTERY.
" DO NOT DISPOSE OF THE BATTERY PACK IN FIRE.
" EXERCISE CAUTION IN HANDLING A HOT BATTERY PACK.
