BATTERY PROTECTION FEATURES
Ryobi 18 V lithium-ion batteries are designed with features
that protect the lithium-ion cells and maximise battery life.
Under some operating conditions, these built-in features
may cause the battery and the tool it is powering to act
differently from nickel-cadmium batteries.
During some applications, the battery electronics may
signal the battery to shut down, causing the tool to stop
running. To reset the battery and tool, release the trigger
and resume normal operation.
NOTE: To prevent further shut down of the battery, avoid
forcing the tool.
If releasing the trigger does not reset the battery and tool,
the battery pack is depleted. If depleted, the battery pack
will begin charging when placed on a lithium-ion charger.
TO INSTALL/REMOVE AAA BATTERIES (INCLUDED)
See Figure 2.
It is advisable to write down stored frequencies before
replacing the clock batteries.
There is a 15-second time frame for replacing the AAA
batteries. If batteries are not replaced within 15 seconds,
the radio will lose all settings previously stored in memory,
and they will require reprogramming.
Always use new alkaline batteries for replacement.
