This manual contains important safety instructions for
battery chargers.
f Before using charger, read all instructions and
f
cautionary markings on charger, battery pack, and
product using battery pack.
Warning! Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get
inside charger.
caution! Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury,
charge only designated Black & Decker batteries. Other
types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and
damage.
caution! Under certain 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.
f do noT attempt to charge the battery pack with
f
any chargers other than the ones in this manual.
The charger and battery pack are specifically designed
to work together.
f These chargers are not intended for any uses
f
other than charging designated Black & decker
rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in
risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
f do not expose charger to rain or snow.
f
f Pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting
f
charger. This will reduce risk of damage to electric plug
and cord.
f Make sure that cord is located so that it will not be
f
stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected
to damage or stress.
f do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely
f
necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result
in risk of fire, electric shock, or electrocution.
f An extension cord must have adequate wire size
f
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.
f do not place any object on top of charger or place
f
the charger on a soft surface that might block the
