IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR BATTERY CHARGERS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This
manual contains important safety
instructions for battery chargers.
• Before using charger, read all instructions
and cautionary markings on charger, battery
pack, and product using battery pack.
WARNING:
Shock hazard. Do not
allow any liquid to get inside charger.
CAUTION:
Burn hazard. To reduce
the risk of injury, charge only designated
BLACK+DECKER batteries. Other types of
batteries may burst causing personal injury
and damage.
CAUTION:
Under certain conditions,
with the charger plugged in to the power
supply, the charger can be shorted by foreign
material. Foreign materials of a conductive
nature such as, but not limited to, 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 when there is no battery pack
in the cavity. Unplug charger before
attempting to clean.
WARNING:
DO NOT attempt to
charge the battery pack with any chargers
other than the ones in this manual. The
charger and battery pack are specifically
designed to work together.
• These chargers are not intended for any
uses other than charging designated
BLACK+DECKER rechargeable
batteries. Any other uses may result in
risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
• Pull by plug rather than cord when
disconnecting charger. This will reduce
risk of damage to electric plug and cord.
• Make sure that cord is located so that it
will not be stepped on, tripped over, or
otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
• Do not use an extension cord unless it
is absolutely necessary. Use of improper
extension cord could result in risk of fire,
electric shock, or electrocution.
• When operating a charger outdoors,
always provide a dry location and use
an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor
use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• An extension cord must have adequate
wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge)
for safety. 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 individual extension contains at
least the minimum wire size.

• Do not place any object on top of the
charger or place the charger on a soft
surface that might block the ventilation
slots and result in excessive internal
heat. Place the charger in a position
away from any heat source. The
charger is ventilated through slots in the
top and the bottom of the housing.
• Do not operate charger with damaged
cord or plug — have them replaced
immediately.
• Do not operate 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 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.
• NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers
together.
• The charger is designed to operate on
standard household electrical power
(120 Volts). Do not attempt to use it on
any other voltage.
