Return to any authorized Black & Decker service center.
11. DO NOT incinerate the tool or batteries even if they are severely damaged or
completely worn out. The batteries can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials
are created when lithium ion battery packs are burned.

flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or removing the battery from the charger
may ignite the dust or fumes.
13. 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
three 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.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame.
IMPORTANT: The batteries in your tool are not fully charged at the factory. Before
attempting to charge them, thoroughly read all of the safety instructions.

(7) with the key in the charging port.
• Insert charger plug into the charging port of
the tool as shown in figure B.
• Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt
60 Hz electrical outlet.
• Let the tool charge initially for at least 16
hours. After the initial charge, your tool should
be fully charged in 12 hours from a fully
discharged condition. Recharge discharged
batteries as soon as possible after use or
battery life may be greatly diminished. For
longest battery life, do not discharge
batteries fully. It is recommended that the
batteries be recharged after each use.

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 batteries do 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) Check that the charger
plug is fully inserted into the charger port on the tool. (4) If the receptacle is OK, and
you do not get proper charging, take or send the tool and charger to your local
Black & Decker service center. See Tools Electric in yellow pages.
