1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet

before inserting battery pack.

2. Insert the battery pack (m) into the charger.

The red (charging) light will blink continuously indicating that the charging process has started.

3. The completion of charge will be indicated by

the red light remaining ON continuously. The pack is fully charged and may be used at this time or left in the charger. NOTE: To ensure maximum performance and life of lithium-ion batteries, charge the battery pack fully before first use. Charging Process Refer to the table below for the state of charge of the battery pack. Charge indicators: DCB105 charging fully charged hot/cold pack delay replace battery pack The compatible charger(s) will not charge a faulty battery pack. The charger will indicate faulty battery by refusing to light or by displaying problem pack or charger blink pattern. NOTE: This could also mean a problem with a charger. If the charger indicates a problem, take the charger and battery pack to be tested at an authorised service centre.

When the charger detects a battery that is too hot or too cold, it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay, suspending charging until the battery has reached an appropriate temperature. The charger then automatically switches to the pack charging mode. This feature ensures maximum battery life.

• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones in this manual. The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together.

• These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging DeWALT

rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
