    Charge the battery with the Hilti charger approved foruse with Li-ion batteries.

    NOTE

    - A conditioning charge (as is required with NiCd orNiMH batteries) is not necessary.

    - Interruption of the charging procedure has no neg-ative effect on battery life.

    - Charging can be started at any time with no negativeeffect on battery life. There is no memory effect (aswith NiCd or NiMH batteries).

    - For best results, batteries should be stored fullycharged in a cooldry place. Avoid charging the batteryin places subject to high ambient temperatures (e.g.

    at a window) as this has an adverse effect on batterylife and increases the rate of self-discharge.

    - If the battery no longer reaches full charge, it mayhave lost capacity due to aging or overstressing. Itis possible to continue working with a battery in thiscondition but it should be replaced in good time.
