20 BATTERY RUN TIME & CHARGING (CONT.) FIGURE 10 CHARGING A BATTERY PACK NOTE: NEW BATTERY PACKS MUST BE CHARGED BEFORE FIRST USE. Battery packs should be charged when the internal temperature of the battery pack is between 0 C and 45 C (32 F to +113 F). Charging below 0 C (32 F) is not recommended. Depending upon the battery pack state, charging could take up to 6 hours. Do not charge more than 16 hours. 1. Connect the 120 VAC power cord to the power supply/battery charger. (See Figure 10) 2. Connect the other end of the 120 VAC power cord to the AC source. (120 VAC, 60 Hz) 3. Connect the right-angle DC plug on the power supply/battery charger to the battery pack charging port. and tighten connector collar clockwise. (See Figure 10) 4. When the battery pack is connected to the power supply/battery charger, the battery pack charge status LEDs on the battery pack will illuminate and indicate charging status. Refer to Table 2 to read the battery pack status. 5. When charging is complete, the 4 LEDs will be green on the battery pack. 6. Disconnect the right-angle DC plug on the power supply/charger from the battery pack by rotating the plug collar counterclockwise and pulling on the connector. 7. Disconnect the power supply charger from the 120 VAC source. BATTERY MAINTENANCE & TEMPERATURE The power supply/battery charger used with the Case Light is engineered to monitor the charging of the Nickel-Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) battery packs and to prevent overcharging. The battery packs are also thermally protected to safeguard from overheating during charging. The user should charge the Ni-MH battery packs before first use and allow 3 to 5 cycles of charging and discharging to recover full capacity if stored for a long time. It is also suggested to rotate the battery storage - First In, First Out (FIFO) inventory and charge the batteries every six months if not in use. As temperature increases, the battery life decreases by Ni-MH self-discharging. Change the battery packs and store them at room temperature while not in use. It does not affect battery life it the units are stored fully charged or fully discharged. The worst storage temperature environment is the trunk of a car. 20
