Young children and the infirm. This appliance is not
•
intended for use by young children or infirm persons without
supervision.

Electrical Safety

Always check that the battery pack voltage corresponds to the
voltage on the rating plate. Also make sure that the voltage of
your charger corresponds to that of your mains.

WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Use in dry locations only.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a
specially prepared cord available through the D
service organisation.
Mains Plug Replacement
(U.K. & Ireland Only)
If a new mains plug needs to be fitted:
• Safely dispose of the old plug.
• Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in the plug.
• Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal.

WARNING: No connection is to be made to the
earth terminal.
Follow the fitting instructions supplied with good quality plugs.
Recommended fuse: 13 A.
Using an Extension Cable
If an extension cable is required, use an approved 3–core
extension cable suitable for the power input of this tool (see
Technical Data).The minimum conductor size is 1.5 mm
maximum length is 30 m.
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.

Grounding Instructions

The DCR017 (230 V) charger/radio must be grounded. In the
event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. The charger/radio is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.

DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer
surface that is green with yellow stripes is the equipment-
grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the
cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-
grounding conductor to a live terminal. Repairs shall only
be performed by a D WALT service agent. Do not modify
e
the plug provided with the charger/radio – if it will not
fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a D
repair agent.
For grounded, cord-connected charger/
radio rated 16A and lower and intended
for use on a nominal 230 V supply circuit
The charger/radio is for use on a nominal 230 V circuit, and
has a grounding plug that looks like the plug in the following
