The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to
u
produce sufficient power on jobs which were easily done
previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these
conditions. Follow the charging procedure. You may also
charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no
adverse affect on the battery pack.
Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but
u
not limited to, steel wool, aluminium 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.
Do not freeze or immerse charger in water or any other
u
liquid.
Warning! Do not allow any liquid to get inside charger. Never
attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic
housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a
service center for recycling.
State of charge indicator (Fig.B)
The battery is equipped with a state of charge indicator.
This can be used to display the current level of charge in the
battery during use and during charging. It does not indicate
tool functionality and is subject to variation based on product
components, temperature and end-user application.
Checking state of charge during use
Press the state of charge indicator button (B1).
u
The three LEDs (B2) will illuminate, indicating the percent
u
of charge in the battery. See chart in figure B.
If LED light does not illuminate, charge battery.
u
Charger Diagnostics (Fig.E)
Refer to the indicators in figure E for the charge status of the
battery pack.
Bad Battery
If you see a bad battery blink pattern, do not continue
to charge this battery. Return it to a service center or a
collection site for recycling.
Hot/Cold Pack Delay
When the charger detects a battery pack that is too hot
or too cold, it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay,
suspending charging until the battery pack has reached an
appropriate temperature. The charger then automatically
switches to the pack charging mode. This feature ensures
maximum battery pack life. A cold battery pack will charge at a
slower rate than a warm battery pack. The pack will charge at
that slower rate throughout the entire charging cycle and will
not return to maximum charge rate even if the pack warms.

18V Black+Decker Cordless tools. The battery can recognise
the tool it is inserted into and will run at the relevant power,
providing longer runtime in 18V tools. There is a State of
charge button (14c) which will indicate the level charge at both
54V & 18V.
