Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using battery. Makita’s 18V & 14V batteries have a built in memory chip that records the battery usage history. While the battery is connected it will transmit the data to the charger
Conditioning charge can extend the life of battery by automatically searching the optimum charging condition for the batteries in every situation. The battery employed in the following conditions repeatedly requires "conditioning charge" to prevent fast wear out. In that case, yellow light lights up.Charging delay: If the battery is cooled down or too cold, there may be a charging delay. In this case, you should bring the battery to room temperature and try again. Plug the battery charger into the proper AC voltage source. Charging light will flash in green color repeatedly. The products should be sent to repair or maintenance, if the yellow warning light will frequently flash.
Adaptive charging: The charger can perform adaptive charging to extend the battery's lifespan. In certain situations, the charger automatically searches for optimal charging conditions for the battery. The charging process may take longer than usual. To reduce risk of injury, charge only Makita type rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
