Electrical safety

Your charger is double insulated;
therefore no earth wire is
required.
Always check that the mains voltage
corresponds to the voltage on the rat-
ing plate. Never attempt to replace the
charger
unit with a regular mains plug.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must
u
be replaced by the manufacturer or
an authorised Black & Decker Service
Centre in order to avoid a hazard.

Charging procedure

BLACK+DECKER chargers are designed to charge
BLACK+DECKER battery packs.
Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet before inserting
u
the battery pack.
Insert the battery pack into the charger.
u
The green LED will flash indicating that the
battery is being charged
The completion of charge is indicated by the
green LED remaining on continuously. The pack
is fully charged and may be used at this time or
left on the charger
Warning! Recharge discharged batteries as soon as possible
after use or battery life may be greatly diminished.
Charger diagnostics
This charger is designed to detect certain problems that can
arise with the battery packs or the power source. Problems
are indicated by one LED flashing in different patterns.

(Original instructions)
Bad battery
The charger can detect a weak or damaged
battery.
The red LED flashes in the pattern indicated
on the label. If you see this bad battery blink pattern, do not
continue to charge the battery.
Return it to a service center or a collection site for recycling
Hot/cold pack delay
When the charger detects a battery that
is excessively hot or excessively cold, it
automatically
starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay, suspending
charging until the battery has normalized.
After this happens, the charger automatically switches to the
Pack Charging mode. This feature ensures maximum battery
life. The red LED flashes in the pattern indicated on the label
when the hot / cold pack delay is detected

Important charging notes

Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the
u
battery pack is charged when the air temperature is
between 60°F and 80°F (16°- 27°C).
DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air temperature
u
below +40°F (+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C).
This is important and will prevent serious damage to the
battery pack.
The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch
u
while charging. This is a normal condition, and does not
indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery
pack after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack
in a warm environment such as in a metal shed, or an
uninsulated trailer.
If the battery pack does not charge properly:
u
Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or
u
other appliance
Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch
u
which turns power off when you turn out the lights.
Move charger and battery pack to a location where the
u
surrounding air temperature is approximately 60°F -
80°F (16° - 27°C).
If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack
u
and charger to your local service center.
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 not
u
limited to, steel wool, aluminium foil, or any buildup of me-
tallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities.
