carbonates and lithium salts.
• contents of opened battery cells may
cause respiratory irritation. Provide
fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek
medical attention.
WARNING:
Burn hazard. Battery liquid
may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame.
• Charge the battery packs only in
BlAcK+decKeR chargers.
• do Not splash or immerse in water or
other liquids. This may cause premature
cell failure.
• do not store or use the appliance and
battery pack in locations where the
temperature may reach or exceed
105°F (40˚C) (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. NOTe: lithium-Ion batteries
should not be put in checked baggage.
StoRAGe RecoMMeNdAtIoNS
1. The best storage place is one that is
cool and dry away from direct sunlight
and excess heat or cold.
2. Long storage will not harm the battery
pack or charger.
cHARGING PRoceduRe
BlAcK+decKeR chargers are designed
to charge BlAcK+decKeR battery packs.
1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet
before inserting the battery pack.
2. Insert the battery pack into the charger
as shown in Figure A.
A
3. The green LED will flash indicating
that the battery is being charged.
4. 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.
Recharge discharged batteries as soon
as possible after use or battery life
may be greatly diminished. For longest
battery life, do not discharge batteries
fully. It is recommended that the batteries
be recharged after each use.
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.
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.
leAVING tHe BAtteRY IN tHe cHARGeR
The charger and battery pack can be left
connected with the green LED glowing
indefinitely. The charger will keep the battery
pack fresh and fully charged.
IMPoRtANt cHARGING NoteS
1. Longest life and best performance can
be obtained if the battery pack is charged
when the air temperature is between 65°F
and 75°F (18°- 24°C). DO NOT charge
