BATTERY CHARGER. WHY?

specically designed for working together.
b) The battery can be inserted into the charger only in
one direction. Turn the battery around until it can be
inserted into the slot, the indicator light should be
green and ash when the battery is charging.
2. REASONS FOR DIFFERENT CHARGING TIMES
The charging time can be affected by many reasons
which are not defects in your product.
a) If the battery pack is only partly discharged it may
be re-charged in less than rated charging time.

very cold/ hot, it may take longer to re-charge.
Please nd an appropriate environment with proper
air temperature to start charging.
