•
Do not place any object on top of the charger.
Place the charger in a position away from any
heat source.
•
Do not operate the charger with a damaged cord or plug.
•
Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or otherwise
damaged in any way.
Take it to an authorized service center.
•
Do not disassemble the 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.
•
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.
•
Disconnect the battery pack from the appliance before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing appliance.
•
NEVER
attempt to connect 2 chargers together.
•
The charger is designed to operate on standard 240–100VAC household electric power.
Do not attempt to use it with any other voltage.
WARNING:
Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside the charger. Electric shock
may result.
WARNING:
Burn hazard. Do not submerge the battery pack in any liquid or allow any liquid to
enter the battery pack. 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.
CAUTION:
Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only DEWALT® rechargeable battery
packs. Other types of batteries may overheat and burst resulting in personal injury and property
damage.
NOTICE:
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects. Alternatively,
with the charger plugged into the power supply, the charger can be shorted or ignited by foreign
material. Foreign materials or metal objects of a conductive nature, such as, but not limited to,
grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool, aluminum foil or any buildup of metallic particles should
be kept away from the charger cavities at all times.
Always unplug the AC/DC power adaptor from the outlet and remove the battery pack from the
battery pack receptacle before attempting to clean the charger.
CHARGING
The TSTAK
®
CONNECT RADIO + CHARGER can only charge DEWALT
®
DCB series 12V MAX/20V
MAX Lithium-ion rechargeable battery packs, including DEWALT
®
XR
®
FLEXVOLT
®
Battery packs up
to 9Ah. Use of any other battery packs or any non-rechargeable batteries may create a risk of injury or
fire. Be sure to read all safety instructions before using this appliance for charging your battery pack.
Note:
To ensure maximum performance and life of lithium-ion battery packs, charge the
battery pack fully before first use.
IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES
.
1
Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when
room temperature is between 65oF and 75oF (18-24oC). DO NOT charge the battery pack
below 40oF (4.5oC), or above 104oF (40oC). This is important and will prevent serious
damage to the battery pack.
.
2
The charger and battery pack may become warm to the touch 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.
.
3
A cold battery pack will charge at about half the rate of a warm battery pack. The battery
pack will charge at that slower rate throughout the entire charging cycle and will not return
to maximum charge rate even if the battery pack warms.
If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Make sure power source is working by plugging a different appliance to the same source
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off when you
turn out the lights
c. Move the charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is
approximately 65–75oF (18-24oC)
d. If charging problems persist, take the battery pack and charger to your local service
center.
.
4
The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs
which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use the pack under these
conditions. You may also charge a partially used pack with no adverse effect on the battery
pack.
.
5
Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, grinding dust, metal
chips, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away
from charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply before attempting
to clean.
.
6
Do not freeze or immerse the charger in water or any other liquid.
WARNING:
Shock hazard. Don’t allow any liquid to get inside the charger. Electric shock
may result.
WARNING:
Burn hazard. Do not submerge the battery pack in any liquid or allow any liquid
to enter the battery pack. 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.
CAUTION: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the
same or equivalent type.
