WARNING!
REAd ANd UNdERSTANd ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal
injury.
 before using charger, read all instructions and
cautionary markings in this manual, on charger, battery,
and product using battery to prevent misuse of the
products and possible injury or damage.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the
charger and battery, charge only nickel-cadmium
rechargeable batteries as specifically designated
on your charger. Other types of batteries may
burst, causing personal injury or damage.
 do not use charger outdoors or expose to wet or
damp conditions. Water entering charger will increase
the risk of electric shock.
 Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by
the charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire,
electric shock, or injury to persons. Following this
rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious
personal injury.
 do not abuse cord or charger. Never use the cord to
carry the charger. Do not pull the charger cord rather than
the plug when disconnecting from receptacle. Damage
to the cord or charger could occur and create an electric
shock hazard. Replace damaged cords immediately.
 Make sure cord is located so that it will not be
stepped on, tripped over, come in contact with sharp
edges or moving parts, or otherwise subjected to
damage or stress. This will reduce the risk of accidental
falls, which could cause injury, and damage to the cord,
which could result in electric shock.
 keep cord and charger from heat to prevent damage
to housing or internal parts.
 do not let gasoline, oils, petroleum-based products,
etc., come in contact with plastic parts. They contain
chemicals that can damage, weaken, or destroy
plastic.
