Important Charging Notes

1. After normal usage, your battery pack should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours. If the
battery pack is run-down completely, it may take up to 6 hours to become fully
charged. Your battery pack was sent from the factory in an uncharged condition.
Before
attempting to use it, it must be charged for at least 9 hours.
2. 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. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if battery pack is
charged when air temperature is about 75°F.(24°C).
3. While charging, the charger may hum and become warm to touch. This is a normal
condition and does not indicate a problem.
4. If the battery pack does not charge properly—(1) Check current at receptacle by
plugging in a lamp or other appliance. (2) Check to see if receptacle is connected
to a light switch which turns power off when you turn out the lights. (3) Move
charger and battery pack to a surrounding air temperature of 40°F (4,5 °C) to
105°F.(40,5 °C) (4) If the receptacle and temperature are OK, and you do not get
proper charging, take or send the battery pack and charger to your local
Black & Decker service center. See Tools Electric in yellow pages.
5. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on
jobs which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE using product with its
battery pack in a depleted condition.
6. To prolong battery pack life, avoid leaving the battery pack on charge for extended
periods of time (over 30 days without use). Although overcharging is not a safety
concern, it can significantly reduce overall battery pack life.
7. The battery pack will reach optimum performance after being cycled 5 times during
normal usage. There is no need to run the batteries down completely before
recharging. Normal usage is the best method of discharging and recharging the
batteries.
Maintenance Stage
The trickle charge feature of the charger allows the battery pack to remain in the charger
and ready for use. With the charger connected to standard household current, the red
charging indicator light will glow constantly. The charger will keep the power pack fully
charged. A battery pack will slowly lose its charge when kept out of the charger.
