Technical Data

Assembly

Battery Charging (Accessory)

• Use only the battery chargers listed on the accessories page. Only these battery chargers are matched to the lithium-ion battery of your cordless work light.

Note: The battery supplied is partially charged. To ensure the full capacity of the battery, completely charge the battery in the battery charger before using your power tool for the first time.
The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without reducing its service life. In­terrupting the charging procedure does not damage the battery.
The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharging by the “Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)”. When the battery is empty, the cordless work light is switched off by means of a protective circuit.

• Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after the cordless work light has been automatically switched off. The battery can be damaged.

To remove battery 4, press the battery unlocking button 5 and pull the battery toward the rear out of the cordless worklight. Do not exert any force when doing this. Observe the notes for disposal.

Operation

Initial Operation
Inserting the battery
Insert the charged battery 4 into lamp head 3 until it can be felt to engage and face flush against the lamp head 3. Switching On and Off To start the cordless work light, press the On/Off switch 2. To switch off the cordless work light, press the On/Off switch 2 again. To save energy, only switch the cordless work light on when using it. Temperature-Dependent Overload  Protection
