IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL
BATTERY CHARGERS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important safety and operating instructions
for battery chargers.
• Before using the charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on the charger, battery
pack and product using the battery pack.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside the charger. Electric shock may
result.
CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only D
WALT rechargeable battery
e
packs. Other types of batteries may overheat and burst resulting in personal injury and property
damage.
NOTICE: Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the power supply, the charger can
be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature, such as, but not limited
to, grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool, aluminum foil or any buildup of metallic particles should be
kept away from the charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there
is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug the charger before attempting to clean it.
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 D
WALT
e
rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
• Pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger. This will reduce
the risk of damage to the electric plug and cord.
• Make sure that the 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. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using more than one extension to make up
the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The
following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The lower the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Not Recommended
• 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 the charger with a damaged cord or plug.
• Do not operate the 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 the 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 120V household electrical power. Do
not attempt to use it on any other voltage. This does not apply to the vehicular charger.
• This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry the battery pack so that metal objects
can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not place the battery pack in
aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.
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 (e.g., packed in suitcases and carry-on luggage)
UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual battery
packs, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that
could contact them and cause a short circuit.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM ION (Li-Ion)
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely
worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created when
lithium ion battery packs are burned.
• If battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash area with
mild soap and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for
15 minutes or until irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is
composed of a mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
• Contents of opened battery cells may cause respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If
symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame.
