The Outdoor Adventure™ 18V LXT® 4.0Ah Lithium - Ion Battery outshines standard lithium - ion batteries.

The Makita Rapid Optimum Charger (sold separately) is a smart - charging system. It communicates with the battery during charging to monitor current, voltage, and temperature. This tech optimizes battery life and speeds up charging. The charger also has a built - in fan for faster, more efficient charging, even in hot weather.
Makita's STAR Protection Computer Controls™ enhance tool performance and extend battery life. This communication tech allows the tool and battery to share data in real - time and monitor conditions during use, protecting against overloading, over - discharging, and overheating.

Using your Makita Outdoor Adventure 18V LXT 4.0Ah Lithium - Ion Battery is easy. First, make sure you're using it with a Star Protection tool, which is marked by the Star Symbol™ or a Yellow Battery Receiver under the tool. Just slide the battery into the tool until it clicks into place. The integrated L.E.D. charge level indicator will show you how much charge is left.
When it's time to charge, use the Makita Rapid Optimum Charger (sold separately). Plug the charger into a power source and then insert the battery. The charger will communicate with the battery to monitor current, voltage, and temperature. It has a built - in fan to cool the battery, so it charges faster, even in hot weather. It'll reach a full charge in about 40 minutes.
Here are some important things to note. This battery is only for Star Protection tools, so don't use it with other non - compatible tools. Also, although it can handle extreme temperatures, try to avoid leaving it in very hot or cold conditions for long periods.
For maintenance, keep the battery clean and dry. Check the contact terminals regularly to make sure they're clean and not damaged. If the battery is going to be stored for a long time, it's a good idea to charge it to about 50% first. This helps prevent self - discharge and keeps the battery in good condition. Remember, the battery comes with a 3 - year limited warranty, so if you have any issues, reach out to Makita's customer service.
