SAFETY GUIDELINES / DEFINITIONS
DANGER: Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious
injury.
WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury.
CAUTION: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate
injury.
CAUTION: Used without the safety alert symbol indicates potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result

RISK OF UNSAFE OPERATION. When using tools or equipment, basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of personal injury. Improper operation, maintenance or modification of tools or
equipment could result in serious injury and property damage. There are certain applications for which tools
and equipment are designed. Black & Decker strongly recommends that this product NOT be modified and/or
used for any application other than for which it was designed. Read and understand all warnings and operating
instructions before using any tool or equipment.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL BATTERY
CHARGERS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Read all instructions before operating product. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
• The BC15BDCA was designed for household use only. The BC25BDCA and BC40BDCA were designed for
both household and commercial use.
• Avoid dangerous environments. Don't use battery chargers in damp or wet locations. Do not use the
charger in the rain or snow.
• Keep children away from the charging area. Keep the charger away from children. This is not a toy!
• Store indoors. When not in use, battery chargers should be stored indoors in dry, and high or locked-up
places – out of reach of children.
• Unplug the battery charger when not in use.
• Check for damaged parts. Any part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by manufacturer
unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual before further use.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER CORDS
• Don't abuse cord. Never carry appliance by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from
heat, oil, and sharp edges. Pull by plug rather than cord when unplugging the unit.
• Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuits or outlets to be used.
Receptacles are available having built in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of safety.
DANGER – Never alter AC cord or plug provided – if it will not fit the outlet, have aproper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician. Improper connection can result in a risk of an electric shock.
Extension Cords
• An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of an improper extension cord
could result in a risk of fire and electric shock, and will void warranty.
If an extension cord must be used, make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. 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 smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Power Cord Safety
The BC15BDCA and BC25BDCA have polarized plugs (one blade is wider than the other) as a safety feature.
This plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
The BC40BDCA battery charger is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks
like the plug illustrated in the sketch A in the illustration that follows. A temporary adapter, which looks like the
adapter illustrated in sketches B and C, may be used to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle as shown
in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.
DANGER: Before using adapter as illustrated, be certain that center screw of outlet plate is grounded. The
green-colored rigid ear or lug extending from adapter must be connected to a properly grounded outlet– make
certain it is grounded. If necessary, replace original outlet cover plate screw with a longer screw that will secure
adapter ear or lug to outlet cover plate and make ground connection to grounded outlet.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERY CHARGERS
WARNING: BURST HAZARD: Do not use the unit for charging dry-cell batteries that are commonly used
with home appliances. These batteries may burst and cause injury to persons and damage property. Use the unit
for charging/boosting a 12 volt battery only. It is not intended to supply power to a low-voltage electrical system
other than in a starter-motor application.
• Use of accessories and attachments: the use of any accessory or attachment not recommended by
manufacturer for use with this battery charger could be hazardous.
• Stay alert. Use common sense. Do not operate this equipment when you are tired or impaired.
• Do not operate the battery charger near flammable liquids or in gaseous or explosive atmospheres. Motors
may spark, and the sparks might ignite fumes.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK:
• Never immerse the battery charger in water or any other liquid, or use when wet.
