Indicator
Note:
When the indicator blinks red, the battery pack is either
defective or the battery pack contacts are not properly mated
with those of the charger.
The ambient temperature should be between 5°C and 40°C
while charging is in progress. Charging outside this range may
not fully charge the battery.
The battery pack life is over when its operating time decreases even
though it is fully and correctly charged. Replace the battery pack.
