CHARGING YOUR DRILL-DRIVER
The battery pack for this tool has been shipped in a
low charge condition to prevent possible problems.
Therefore, you should charge it until light on front of
charger changes from red to green.
Note: Batteries will not reach full charge the first time
they are charged. Allow several cycles (drilling
followed by recharging) for them to become fully
charged.
TO CHARGE
■ Charge battery pack only with the charger
provided.
■ Make sure power supply is normal household
voltage, 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only.
■ Connect charger to power supply.
■ Place battery pack in charger aligning raised rib in
charger with groove in battery pack.
■ Press down on battery pack to be sure contacts on
battery pack engage properly with charger
contacts.
Normally, the yellow and green lights on charger
will come on. This indicates charger is in soft start
mode and should switch to fast charge mode within
5 minutes. When charger is in fast charge mode
the red light will come on. If after a period of 15
minutes the yellow and green lights remain on,
remove battery pack, wait
1
minute and reinsert
battery pack in charger. If the yellow and green
lights continue to remain on after an additional 15
minutes, the battery pack is damaged and will not
accept a charge. Return battery pack to your
nearest Sears Repair Center for checking or
replacing.
When your battery pack becomes fully charged, the
red light will turn OFF and the green light will turn
ON
After normal usage, 1 hour of charging time is
required to be fully charged. A minimum charge
time of
1
-
1 / 2
hours is required to recharge a
completely discharged tool.
The battery pack will become slightly warm to the
touch while charging. This is normal and does not
indicate a problem.
Do not place charger in an area of extreme heat or
cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.
When batteries become fully charged, unplug
charger from power supply and remove the battery
pack.
