lowed by recharging) for them to fully charge.

Normally, the yellow and green lights on the charger
will come on. This indicates charger is in control charge
mode and should switch to fast charge mode within

red light will come on. If after a period of 15 minutes
the yellow and green lights remain on, remove the
battery pack, wait 1 minute and reinsert battery pack
