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.
• do not use an extension cord unless
it is absolutely necessary. Use of
improper extension cord could result in
risk of fire, electric shock, or electrocution.
• an extension cord must have adequate
wire size (awg or american wire
gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge
number of the wire, the greater the capacity
of the cable, that is 16 gauge has more
capacity than 18 gauge. When using more
than one extension to make up the total
length, be sure each individual extension
contains at least the minimum wire size.

• do not place any object on top of
charger or place the charger on a soft
surface that might block the ventilation
slots and result in excessive internal
heat. place the charger in a position
away from any heat source. The charger
is ventilated through slots in the top and
the bottom of the housing.
• do not mount charger on wall or
permanently affix charger to any
surface. The charger is intended to use
on a flat, stable surface (i.e., table top,
bench top).
• do not operate charger with damaged
cord or plug — have them replaced
immediately.
• do not operate charger if it has
received a sharp blow, been dropped,
or otherwise damaged in any way. Take
it to an authorized service center.
• do not disassemble charger; take it to
an authorized service center when service
or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly
may result in a risk of electric shock,
electrocution or fire.
• disconnect the charger from the outlet

ceases. If medical attention is needed,
the battery electrolyte for Li-ion batteries
is composed of a mixture of liquid organic
carbonates and lithium salts.
• contents of opened battery cells may
cause respiratory irritation. Provide
fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek
medical attention.
