BATTERY REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL
This product uses Lithium Ion rechargeable and recyclable batteries. When the batteries no longer hold a
charge, they should be removed from the Vac and recycled. They must not be incinerated or composted.
The batteries can be taken for disposal to a BLACK+DECKER, Company-Owned or Authorized Service Center.
If you bring the batteries to a BLACK+DECKER Company-Owned or Authorized Service Center, the Center will
arrange to recycle old batteries. Or, contact your local municipality for proper disposal instructions in your
city/town.
To remove the battery pack for disposal:
1.) First, before attempting to disassemble the product, turn it on and leave it on until the motor completely
stops insuring a complete discharge of the batteries.
2.) Remove nozzle.
3.) Using a phillips screwdriver, remove the two exposed screws near the front of handle securing the battery
housing.
4.) Lift the housing cover away from the assembly, exposing the batteries.
5.) Lift out the battery assembly and detach the lead connection.

The RBRC ® Seal
The RBRC ® (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corp oration)
Seal on the nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ionbatteries (or battery packs) indicates that the
costs to recycle these batteries (or battery packs) at the end of their useful life have already been paid by
BLACK+DECKER. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-
ion batteries in the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the Call 2 Recycle ® program provides an
environmentally conscious alternative.
Call 2 Recycle, Inc., in cooperation with BLACK+DECKER and other battery users, has established the pro-
gram in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal
hydride or lithium-ion batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by returning
the spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries to an authorized BLACK+DECKER
service center for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for information on where to
drop off the spent battery. RBRC ® is a registered trademark of Call 2 Recycle, Inc.
