OVERTIME CONDITION - When this message is displayed,
the charging cycle has exceeded 18 hours; this condition
may occur because of the following:
The battery being charged is defective. See a service
centre to service or replace the battery.
The battery being charged has a very large capacity,
greater than that specified for the charger.
Charging a very cold battery
If the battery to be charged is very cold i.e., in temperatures
below freezing (0°C/32°F), it cannot accept a high rate of
charge. The initial charge rate will be low. The charge rate
will increase as the battery warms.
Warning! Never attempt to charge a frozen battery.

Maintenance
Your Black & Decker tool has been designed to operate over
a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool
care and regular cleaning.
Warning! Before performing any maintenance or cleaning
on the appliance, unplug the appliance.
From time to time wipe the appliance with a damp cloth.
Do not use any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner. Do
not immerse the appliance in water.
After each use, clean the battery clamps (4) and be sure
to remove any battery fluid that will cause corrosion of
the clamps (4).
Clean the outside case of the battery charger with a soft
cloth and, if necessary, mild soap solution.
Do not allow liquid to enter the battery charger. Do not
operate when the battery charger is wet.
Keep the battery charger cords loosely coiled during
storage to prevent damage to the cords.
Protecting the environment
Separate collection. This product must not be
disposed of with normal household waste.
Should you find one day that your Black & Decker product
needs replacement, or if it is of no further use to you, do not
dispose of it with household waste. Make this product
available for separate collection.
Separate collection of used products and packaging
allows materials to be recycled and used again. Re-
use of recycled materials helps prevent
environmental pollution and reduces the demand
for raw materials.
Local regulations may provide for separate collection of
electrical products from the household, at municipal waste
sites or by the retailer when you purchase a new product.
