Before using charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on
charger, battery pack, and product using battery pack.
zLWARNING:
Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside charger.
zLWARNING:
Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only designated Black
& Deckerbatteries. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
zLCAUTION:
Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged in to the power supply,
the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such
as, but not limited to, 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 charger before attempting to clean.
zLWARNING:
• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones in
this manual. The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together.
• These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging designated Black & Decker
rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
• Pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger. This will reduce risk of
damage to electric plug and cord.
• Make sure that cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or
otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
