Assembly Instructions - Black & Decker NST2018 Instruction Manual

2. For prolonged storage such as over the winter, the battery pack should be fully
charged and then removed from the charger. It should be charged again just prior
to use.
LEAVING THE BATTERY PACK IN THE CHARGER
It is OK to leave battery packs on charge for long periods of time. The charger has a
maintenance mode which gives the battery pack enough charge to stay "topped off".
If however, the tool is not expected to be needed for more than 30 days, unplug the
charger and store battery pack in a cool, dry location. NOTE: A battery pack will lose
its charge when kept off of the charger. If the battery pack has not been kept on
maintenance charge, it may need to be recharged before use. A battery pack may also
lose its charge if left in a charger that is not plugged into an appropriate AC source.
