STORAGE RECOMMENDATIONS
. 1
The best storage place is one that is cool and dry, away from direct sunlight and excess
heat or cold.
2.
For long-term storage, it is recommended to store a fully charged battery pack in a cool dry
place out of the charger for optimal results.
Note: Battery packs should not be stored completely depleted of charge. The battery pack
will need to be recharged before use.
THE RBRC™ SEAL
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) seal on the nickel cadmium, nickel
metal hydride or lithium ion batteries (or battery packs) indicate that the costs to recycle these
batteries (or battery packs) at the end of their useful life have already been paid by DEWALT
In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium ion
batteries in the trash or municipal solid waste stream, and the RBRC program provides an
environmentally conscious alternative.
RBRC™, in cooperation with DEWALT
the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal
hydride or lithium ion batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by
returning the spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium ion batteries to an authorized
DEWALT
service center or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local
®
recycling center for information on where to drop off the spent battery.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL BATTERY CHARGERS
WARNING: Read all safety warnings and all instructions for the battery pack, charger and
power tool. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire
and/ or serious injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important safety and operating instructions
for battery chargers.
•
DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any charger other than a compatible
DEWALT
charger. The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together.
®
•
This charger is not intended for any uses other than charging designated DEWALT
rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
•
Do not expose the charger to direct water source and DO NOT immerse in water.
•
Pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger. This will reduce the
risk of damage to the electric plug and cord.
•
Make sure that the 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.
•
When operating a charger outdoors, always provide a dry location and use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
•
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. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating. When using more than one extension to make up the total
length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The following
table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The lower the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
