Important Charging Notes; Storage Recommendations - DeWalt DCR025 Instruction Manual

English
The tool will automatically turn off if the Electronic
Protection System engages. If this occurs, place the lithium-
ion battery pack on the charger until it is fully charged.
Charger Cleaning Instructions

WARNING: Shock hazard. Disconnect the charger
from the AC outlet before cleaning. Dirt and grease
may be removed from the exterior of the charger using
a cloth or soft non-metallic brush. Do not use water or
any cleaning solutions.

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 +104 °F (+40 °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. If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check operation of receptacle by plugging in a lamp
or other appliance;
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light
switch which turns power off when you turn out the
lights;
c. Move the charger and battery pack to a location
where the surrounding air temperature is
approximately 65 °F – 75 °F (18 ° – 24 °C);
d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery
pack and charger to your local service center.
4. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to
produce sufficient power on jobs which were easily
done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these
conditions. Follow the charging procedure. You may
also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire
with no adverse effect on the battery pack.
5. 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 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.
6. Do not freeze or immerse the charger in water or any
other liquid.

Storage Recommendations

1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry, away
from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold.
2. For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully
charged battery pack in a cool dry place out of the
charger for optimal results.

nOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely
depleted of charge. The battery pack will need to be
recharged before use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR
FUTURE USE
1. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules
and Industry Canada License-exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
a. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
b. This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
2. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
3. This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of
the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment
-
and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

5. Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmiIer
may only operate using an antenna of a type and
maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmiIer by
Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference
to other users, the antenna type and its gain should
be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated
power (e.i.r.p) is not more than that necessary for
successful communication.
6. To comply with FCC and Industry Canada RF radiation
exposure limits for general population, the antenna
used for this device must not be co-located or operating
in conjunction with any other antenna or transmiter.
