HOT/COLD DELAY

DCB101
This charger has a hot/cold delay feature: when the charger detects a
battery that is hot, it automatically starts a delay, suspending charging
until the battery has cooled. After the battery has cooled, the charger
automatically switches to the pack charging mode. This feature
ensures maximum battery life. The red light flashes long, then short
while in the hot/cold delay mode.
DCB107, DCB112
The DCB107 and DCB112 chargers have a hot/cold delay feature.
When the charger detects a battery that is hot, it automatically delays
charging until the battery has cooled. When the charger detects a
battery that is cold, it automatically delays charging until the battery
has warmed.
The red light will continue to blink, but a yellow indicator light will
be illuminated during this operation. Once the battery has cooled,
the yellow light will turn off and the charger will resume the charging
procedure.

LEAVING THE BATTERY PACK IN THE CHARGER

The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the charge
indicator showing Pack Charged.
WEAK BATTERY PACKS: Weak batteries will continue to function
but should not be expected to perform as much work.
FAULTY BATTERY PACKS: This charger will not charge a faulty
battery pack. The charger will indicate faulty battery pack by refusing
to light or by displaying problem pack or charger.
NOTE: This could also mean a problem with a charger.
PROBLEM POWER LINE (DCB101)
Some chargers have a Problem Powerline indicator. When the charger
is used with some portable power sources such as generators or
sources that convert DC to AC, the charger may temporarily suspend

operation, flashing the red light with two fast blinks followed by a
pause. This indicates the power source is out of limits.

Wall Mounting

DCB107, DCB112
These chargers are designed to be wall mountable or to sit upright on
a table or work surface.
If wall mounting, locate the charger within reach of an electrical outlet.
Mount the charger securely using drywall screws at least 1" (25.4 mm)
long, screwed into wood to an optimal depth leaving approximately
7/32" (5.5 mm) of the screw exposed.

Important Charging Notes

1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery
pack is charged when the air temperature is between 65 °F
and 75 °F (18° – 24 °C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in
an air temperature below +40 °F (+4.5 °C), or above +105 °F
(+40.5 °C). 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.
4. If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check operation of receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other
appliance;
