FOR RECHARGING HOT

When using your worklight continuously, the batteries in your battery pack will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack cool down for approximately 30 minutes before attempting to recharge. When the battery pack becomes discharged and is hot, this will cause the green LED to come on instead of the red LED.

After 30 minutes, reinsert battery pack in charger. If green LED continues to remain on, return battery pack to your nearest Sears Repair Center for checking or replacing.
