TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods
Legislation requirements.
Transportation of those batteries has to be done in accordance
with local, national, and international provisions and
regulations.
● Batteries can be transported by road without further
requirements.
● Commercial transport of Lithium-Ion batteries by third
parties is subject to Dangerous Goods Regulations.
Transport preparation and transport are exclusively to
be carried out by appropriately trained persons and the
process has to be accompanied by corresponding experts.
When transporting batteries:
● Ensure that battery contact terminals are protected and
insulated to prevent short circuit.
● Ensure that battery pack is secured against movement
within the packaging.
● Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leaking.

CHARACTERISTICS
After inserting the battery into the reception of the charger, the
battery will automatically be charged (red lamp is illuminated
continuously).
When a hot or cold battery pack is inserted into the charger
(fl ashing red lamp), charging will begin automatically once the
battery reaches the correct charging temperature (0°C–60°C).
Charging time varies depending on the battery temperature,
charge needed, and type of battery pack being charged.
As soon as charging is completed, the charger switches over to
trickle charge to maintain the full capacity (green control lamp
is illuminated continuously, red lamp off ).
It is not necessary to remove the battery after charging. The
battery can be stored permanently in the charger without the
danger of being overcharged.
If both LEDs fl ash at the same time, either the battery has
not been completely mounted or there is a fault in the battery
or the charger. For safety reasons, you must stop using the
charger and battery immediately and have them inspected by
a MILWAUKEE customer-service center.
