Panasonic EY6506 Manuel D’Utilisation

- 7 - 

 

   When operating with a Ni-MH bat-

tery pack, make sure the place is well-

venti lated.

The rechargeable batteries have 

a limited life. If the operation time 

becomes extremely short after 

recharging, replace the battery pack 

with a new one.

When you charge the battery pack for 

the first time, or after prolonged stor-

age, charge it for about 24 hours to 

bring the battery up to full capacity.

Battery charger (EY0110)

 1. Plug the charger into the AC outlet.

Sparks may be produced when the 

plug is inserted into the AC power 

supply, but this is not a problem in 

terms of safety.

 2. Insert the battery pack firmly into the 

charger.

 3. During charging, the charging lamp 

will be lit.

When charging is completed, an 

internal electronic switch will auto-

matically be triggered to prevent 

overcharging.

  Charging will not start if the battery 

pack is warm (for example, immedi-

ately after heavy-duty operation).

  The orange standby lamp will be lit 

until the battery cools down. Charging 

will then begin automatically.

 4. When charging is completed, the 

charging lamp will start flashing quick-

ly in green color.

 5. When in any of the conditions that 

battery pack is too cool, or the bat-

tery pack has not been used for a 

long time, the charging lamp is lit. In 

this case, charging takes longer to 

fully charge the battery pack, than the 

standard charging time.

  If a fully charged battery pack is 

inserted into the charger again, the 

charging lamp light up. After sev-

eral minutes, the charging lamp may 

flash quickly to indicate the charging 

is completed. 

 6. If the charging lamp does not light im-

mediately after the charger is plugged 

in, or if after the standard charging 

time the lamp does not go off, consult 

an authorized dealer.

 When charging a cool battery pack 

(below 5°C (41°F)) in a warm place, 

leave the battery pack at the place 

and wait for more than one hour to 

warm up the battery to the level of the 

ambient temperature. Otherwise bat-

tery pack may not be fully charged.

 Cool down the charger when 

charging more than two battery 

packs consecutively.

 Do not insert your fingers into con-

tact hole, when holding charger or 

any other occasions.

 Do not use power source from an 

engine generator.

 Do not cover vent holes on the 

charger and the battery pack.
