USE
Charging the unit (fig. A)
This unit is shipped in a partially charged state.
Charge the unit before first use using the mains charging
adaptor (11) for 48 hours.
Lead-acid batteries require routine maintenance to ensure a
full charge and a long battery life. All batteries lose energy
from self-discharge over time and more rapidly at higher
temperatures. When the unit is not in use, Black & Decker
recommend that the battery is charged at least every
60 days.
Check the battery charge level by pressing the battery
status pushbutton (4). The LED charge status display (6) will
indicate the level of battery charge. When only one red LED
lights, charge the unit.
Note: Charging the battery after each use will prolong the
battery life; frequent heavy discharges between charges
and/or overcharging will reduce battery life.
The battery can be charged using the mains charging adaptor
(11) or the 12 Vdc vehicle adaptor (12).
Charging the unit with the mains charger (fig. A)
Make sure that the ON/OFF switch (7) and the LED area light
(10) are turned off while the unit is being charged.
As charging progresses, the red LEDs will light one by one.
Charge the unit until the green FULL LED lights.
Continue to charge for one to two more hours.
Note: The mains charging should not be connected for more
than 60 hours.
When charging is complete, disconnect the mains charging
adaptor (11) and store it in a safe place.
Charging the unit with the 12 Vdc vehicle adaptor
(fig. A)
Make sure that the ON/OFF switch (7) and the LED area light
(10) are turned off while the unit is being charged.
