IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERY
CHARGERS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This
manual contains important safety
instructions for battery chargers.
• Before using charger, read all
instructions and cautionary markings
on charger, battery pack, and product
using battery pack.
WARNING:
not allow any liquid to get inside charger.
CAUTION:
reduce the risk of injury, charge only
designated BLACk+DECkER batteries.
Other types of batteries may burst
causing personal injury and damage.
CAUTION:
conditions, with the charger plugged in to
the power supply, the charger can be
shorted by foreign material. Foreign
materials of a conductive nature such as,
but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum
foil, or any buildup of metallic particles
should be kept away from charger
cavities. Always unplug the charger from
the power supply when there is no
battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger
before attempting to clean.
WARNING:
• DO NOT attempt to charge the
battery pack with any chargers
other than the ones in this manual.
the charger and battery pack are
specifically designed to work together.
• These chargers are not intended for any
uses other than charging designated
BLACK+DECKER rechargeable
batteries. any other uses may result in risk
of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
• Pull by plug rather than cord when
disconnecting charger. this will reduce
risk of damage to electric plug and cord.
• Make sure that cord is located so
that it will not be stepped on, tripped
over, or otherwise subjected to
damage or stress.
• Do not use an extension cord unless
it is absolutely necessary. use of
improper extension cord could result in
risk of fire, electric shock, or electrocution.
• An extension cord must have
adequate wire size (AWG or
American Wire Gauge) for safety. the
smaller the gauge number of the wire,
the greater the capacity of the cable,
that is 16 gauge has more capacity than
18 gauge. When using more than one
extension to make up the total length,
be sure each individual extension
contains at least the minimum wire size.

• Do not place any object on top of
charger or place the charger on
a soft surface that might block
the ventilation slots and result in
excessive internal heat. Place the
charger in a position away from any
heat source. the charger is ventilated
through slots in the top and the bottom
of the housing.
• Do not mount charger on wall or
permanently affix charger to any
surface. the charger is intended to use
on a flat, stable surface (i.e., table top,
bench top).
• Do not operate charger with
damaged cord or plug — have them
replaced immediately.
• Do not operate charger if it has
received a sharp blow, been
dropped, or otherwise damaged
in any way. take it to an authorized
service center.
• Do not disassemble charger; take it
to an authorized service center when
service or repair is required. Incorrect
reassembly may result in a risk of
electric shock, electrocution or fire.
• Disconnect the charger from
the outlet before attempting any
cleaning. this will reduce the risk of
electric shock. Removing the battery
pack will not reduce this risk.
• NEVER attempt to connect 2
chargers together.
• The charger is designed to operate on
standard household electrical power
(120 Volts). Do not attempt to use it on
any other voltage.
