When charging
Whenthechargingbegins,therst(farleft)indicatinglamp
beginstoicker.Then,aschargingproceeds,theotherlamps
light, one after the other, to indicate the battery capacity.

ask your local service center.

Whenpushingthecheckbuttonwiththetoolswitchedo󰀨,theindi-
cator lamps turn on for approx. 5 seconds to show battery capacity.
Iftheorangelampickers,thetoolstopsbecauseoflittle
remaining battery capacity (Auto-stop mechanism). Charge the
battery cartridge or use a charged battery cartridge at this time.
When the tool is used with the battery that has not been
used for a long time and is switched on, no lamps may
light up. The tool stops because of little remaining bat-
tery capacity at this time. Charge the battery properly.
