f Do not place any object on top of charger or place
the charger on a soft surface that might block the
ventilation slots and result in excessive internal
heat. Place the charger in a position away from
any heat source. The charger is ventilated through
slots in the top and the bottom of the housing.
f Do not mount charger on wall or permanently affix
charger to any surface. The charger is intended to
use on a flat, stable surface (i.e., table top, bench top).
f Do not operate charger with damaged cord or
plug — have them replaced immediately.
f Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp
blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any
way. Take it to an authorized service center.
f Do not disassemble charger; take it to an authorized
service center when service or repair is required.
Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric
shock, electrocution or fire.
f Disconnect the charger from the outlet before
attempting any cleaning. This will reduce the risk of
electric shock. Removing the battery pack will not
reduce this risk.
f NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers together.
f The charger is designed to operate on standard
household electrical power. Do not attempt to use
it on any other voltage.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTION
FOR BATTERY PACKS
Warnings! For safe operation, read this manual and
manuals originally supplied with tool before using the charger.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton.
Before using the battery pack and charger, read the safety
instructions below. Then follow charging procedures outlined.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and
materials are created when battery packs are burned.
f Do not charge or use battery in explosive
30-50
atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or removing the
60-100
battery from the charger may ignite the dust or fumes.
f If battery contents come into contact with the skin,
immediately wash area with mild soap and water.
If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over

the open eye for 15 minutes or until irritation ceases.

If medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte
for Lithium-Ion batteries is composed of a mixture of

liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
f Contents of opened battery cells may cause
respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If symptoms
persist, seek medical attention.
Warnings! Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be
flammable if exposed to spark or flame.
f Charge the battery packs only in BLACK+DECKER
chargers.
f Do not splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
This may cause premature cell failure.
f Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in
locations where the temperature may reach or
exceed 105°f (40 ºC) (such as outside sheds or
metal buildings in summer).
Warning! Never attempt to open the battery pack for
any reason. If battery pack case is cracked or damaged,
do not insert into charger. Do not crush, drop or damage
battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that
has received a sharp blow, been dropped, run over or
damaged in any way (i.e., pierced with a nail, hit with a
hammer, stepped on). Damaged battery packs should be
returned to service center for recycling.
Warning! Fire hazard. Do not store or carry
battery so that metal objects can contact exposed
battery terminals. For example, do not place battery
in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes,
drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.
Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires
if the battery terminals inadvertently come in
contact with conductive materials such as keys,
coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of
Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR)
actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce
or on airplanes (i.e., packed in suitcases and carry-on
luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from
short circuits. So when transporting individual batteries,
make sure that the battery terminals are protected and
well insulated from materials that could contact them
and cause a short circuit.
