mportant Safety Warnings and Instructions
•
Read these instructions.
•
Keep these instructions.
•
Heed all warnings.
•
Follow all instructions.
•
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.
Do not use this apparatus near water.
•
Clean only with a dry cloth.
•
Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
•
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other
apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug
has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a
third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the
provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the
obsolete outlet.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
•
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
•
Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the
manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when
moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
•
Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
•
Do not expose this apparatus to dripping or splashing. Do not place objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, on the apparatus.
•
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus
has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has
been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to
rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
WARNING
•
Do not permit children to use the unit. It is not a toy.
•
Keep the work area clean. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.
•
Check damaged parts before further use. A part that has been damaged should be checked
carefully to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Do not
use the unit if it does not function properly.
•
Before using radio charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1) radio
charger, (2) power pack, and (3) product using power pack.
•
To reduce the risk of injury, charge only 18 volt Black & Decker Power Packs. Other types of
batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
•
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture
or snow.
•
Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Black & Decker may result in a risk of
fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
•
To reduce risk of damage to adaptor plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when
disconnecting from radio charger.
•
Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress.
•
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 jacket-
ed 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 out-
door 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.
•
Do not attempt to open the radio charger. There are no customer serviceable parts inside.
Return to any authorized Black & Decker service center.
•
DO NOT incinerate power packs even if they are severely damaged or completely worn out.

The batteries can explode in a fire.
•
A small leakage of liquid from the battery cells may occur under extreme usage, charging or
temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure. However, if the outer seal is broken
and this leakage gets on your skin:
a. Wash quickly with soap and water.
b. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
c. If the battery liquid gets in your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of 10
minutes and seek immediate medical attention. MEDICAL NOTE: The liquid is a 25-35%
solution of potassium hydroxide.
• The label on your radio charger may include the following symbols.

The lightning flash with arrow head within a triangle is intended to tell the user that parts
inside the product are a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within a triangle is intended to tell the user that important
operating and servicing instructions are in the papers with the appliance.
The double insulation symbol (a square within a square) is intended to alert qualified
service personnel to use only identical replacement parts in this apparatus.
Terminals are hazardous live and the external wiring connected to the terminals
requires installation by an instructed person or the use of ready-made leads or cords.
CAUTION:
Modifications not approved by the party responsible for compliance could void
user's authority to operate the equipment in the radio charger.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
. Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Battery Cap Information
Battery storage and carrying caps are provided for use whenever the battery is out of the tool
or charger. Remove cap before placing battery in charger or tool.
WARNING:
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. without battery cap. 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 carryon 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.
