CAUTION:
Under certain conditions,
with the charger plugged in to the
power supply, the exposed charging
contacts inside 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.
• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack
with any charger/radio other than the one in
this manual.
The charger and battery pack are
specifically designed to work together.
•
In case of damaged power supply cord the
supply cord must be replaced immediately by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similar
qualified person to prevent any hazard.
• These charger/radios are not intended
for any uses other than charging D
E
WALT
rechargeable batteries.
Any other uses
may result in risk of fire, electric shock or
electrocution.
• Do not expose charger/radio 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.
• Do not place any object on top of charger/
radio or place the charger/radio on a soft
surface that might block the ventilation slots
and result in excessive internal heat.
Place
the charger/radio in a position away from any
heat source.
• Do not operate charger/radio with damaged
cord or plug —
have them replaced
immediately.
•
Do not operate charger/radio if it has
received a sharp blow, been dropped, or
otherwise damaged in any way.
Take it to an
authorised service center.
• Do not disassemble charger/radio; take it to
an authorised 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 DC013 charger/radio is designed
to operate on standard 230V household
electrical power. Do not attempt to use it on
any other voltage.
This does not apply to the
vehicular charger.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Grounding Instructions
The DC013 (230 V) charger/radio must be
grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
The charger/radio is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER:
Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an
outer surface that is green with yellow
stripes is the equipment-grounding
conductor. If repair or replacement of
the cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the equipment-grounding
conductor to a live terminal. Repairs
shall only be performed by a D
E
WALT
service agent. Do not modify the plug
provided with the charger/radio – if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a D
E
WALT repair agent.
FOR GROUNDED, CORD-CONNECTED CHARGER/RADIO
RATED 16A AND LOWER AND INTENDED FOR USE ON A
NOMINAL 230 V SUPPLY CIRCUIT
The charger/radio is for use on a nominal 230 V
circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the
plug in the following illustration.
