heat including soldering irons, or put in
microwave oven.
• Only use the battery with a charging system
specified by the manufacturer/supplier.
• Do not short-circuit a battery or allow
metallic or conductive objects to contact
both battery terminals simultaneously.
• Dispose of used batteries promptly according
to the manufacturer/supplier’s instructions.
• Improper battery use may result in a fire,

1. This manual contains important safety
and operating instructions.
2. Before using battery charger, read all
instructions and cautionary warnings on
battery charger and product using
battery. cauTIon: To reduce the risk
8. It is recommended that you use the
supplied charger when charging your
tool. If another charger is used, ensure
it is USB compliant. The use of any
other charger could damage the tool or
create a hazardous condition.
9. Use only one charger when charging.
10. Do not attempt to open the charger.
There are no customer serviceable
parts inside. Return to any authorized
BLACK+DECKER service center.
11. DO NOT incinerate the tool or batteries
even if they are severely damaged or
completely worn out. The batteries can
explode in a fire.
12. Do not incinerate the battery even if it is
severely damaged or is completely
worn out. The batteries can explode in a
fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created
of injury, use charger only with this
product. Batteries in other products may
burst causing personal injury or damage.
3. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
4. Use of an attachment not recommended or
sold by BLACK+DECKER may result in a risk
of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
5. To reduce risk of damage to electric
plug and cord, pull by plug rather than
cord when disconnecting charger.
6. Make sure cord is located so that it
will not be stepped on, tripped over, or
otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
7. An extension cord should not be used
unless absolutely necessary. Use of
improper extension cord could result in a
risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
a. Two-wire cords can be used with 2-wire
or 3-wire extension cords. Only round
jacketed extension cords should be
used, and we recommend that they
be listed by Underwriters Laboratories
(U.L.). If the extension is to be used
outside, the cord must be suitable
for outdoor use. Any cord marked for
outdoor use can also be used for indoor
work. The letters “W” or “WA” on the
cord jacket indicate that the cord is
suitable for outdoor use.
b. An extension cord must have adequate
wire size (AWG or American Wire
Gauge) for safety, and to prevent loss
of power and overheating. The smaller
the gauge number of the wire, the
greater the capacity of the cable; that
is, 16 gauge has more capacity than
18 gauge. When using more than one
extension to make up the total length,
be sure each extension contains at
least the minimum wire size.
when lithium ion batteries are burned.
13. Do not charge or use battery in
explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Inserting or removing the drill from
the charger may ignite the dust or fumes.
14. 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 three minutes or until
irritation ceases. If medical attention
is needed, the battery electrolyte is
composed of a mixture of liquid organic
carbonates and lithium salts.
warnInG:
Burn hazard. Battery
liquid may be flammable if exposed to
spark or flame.
