Charging the Power Pack
THE BATTERIES IN YOUR POWER PACK ARE NOT FULLY CHARGED AT THE
FACTORY. BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE THEM, THOROUGHLY READ ALL OF
THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
The radio charger is designed to use standard household 120 volt 60 Hz power.
1. Insert the plug of the power adaptor into the radio charger as shown in Figure 1. Insure
that the charger plug is correctly aligned with the radio socket before pushing to full depth.
2. Plug the power adaptor into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet. NOTE: Do not
charge by means of an engine generator or DC power source. Use only 120V AC.
3. Slide the power pack into the front of the unit as shown in Figure 2. Make sure the power
pack is fully seated in the port and let the pack charge initially for 9 hours. After the initial
charge, under normal usage, your power pack should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours.
4. The red charger light on the radio face (Figure 3) will light indicating that the charging
process has started.
Important Charging Notes
1. After normal usage, your power pack should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours. If the pack
is run-down completely, it may take up to 6 hours to become fully charged. Your power
pack was sent from the factory in an uncharged condition. Before attempting to use it, it
must be charged for at least 9 hours.
2. DO NOT charge the power pack in an air temperature below 40°F (4,5 °C) or above 105°F
(+40,5 °C). This is important and will prevent serious damage to the power pack. Longest
life and best performance can be obtained if power packs are charged when air temper-
ature is about 75°F.
3. While charging, the charger may hum and become warm to touch. This is a normal con-
dition and does not indicate a problem.
4. If the power pack does 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) Move charger to a surrounding air
temperature of 40°F (4,5 °C) or above 105°F (+40,5 °C). (4) Check to see that the red
charging indicator light is lit on the face of the unit. (5) If the receptacle, surrounding tem-
perature and charging indicator light are OK, and you do not get proper charging, take or
send the power pac and radio charger to your local Black & Decker service center. See
Tools Electric in yellow pages.
5. The power pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs
which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE using pack in a depleted condi-
tion.
6. The power pack will reach optimum performance after being cycled 5 times during normal
usage. There is no need to run the pack down completely before recharging. Normal
usage is the best method of discharging and recharging.
7. The exposed charging contacts of the radio charger can be accidentally 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 radio
charger cavities. Unplug radio charger before attempting to clean it.
Maintenance Stage
The trickle charge feature of the radio charger allows the power pack to remain in the charger
and ready for use. With the power adaptor connected to standard household current, the red
charging indicator light will glow constantly. The radio charger will keep the power pack fully
charged. A power pack will slowly lose its charge when kept out of the charger.
Using the Radio (Figure 4)
With the power adaptor connected to standard household current or a fully charged power
pack inserted into the charging port of the radio charger:
1. Turn the On/Off Volume Control knob (I) clockwise to turn the radio on.
2. Turn the AM/FM Selector knob (J) to select an AM or FM station. Extend the antenna if the
radio is tuned to an FM station. If reception is poor, fully extend antenna and rotate in all
directions until reception improves. For AM stations try rotating the radio.
3. Turn the Station Selector knob (K) to change station frequency.
Important Radio Notes
1. The radio will run up to 12 hours on a single charge using an 18 volt power pack.(FS18RC)
NOTE: The radio charger is an 18 volt only product (FS18RC) and will not accept power
packs of different voltages.
2. Reception will vary depending on location and strength of radio signal.
3. AM reception will most likely be clearer when powered by a battery.
Carrying the Radio Charger
Figure 5 illustrates the recommended way to carry the radio charger.
Wall Mounting
The radio charger can be hung on a vertical surface using the key hole mounting slots (C)
shown in Figure 6. Mounting hardware should be installed 6 inches (152.4mm) apart.
CAUTION: Mount radio charger to a surface that will safely hold the weight of radio charger,
drill and both batteries. Avoid mounting or storing your radio charger in the following areas:
• Areas that children can reach.
• High traffic areas.
• Humid or moist areas.
• Areas subject to constant vibration.
• Areas not well ventilated or dusty.
• Areas exposed to direct sunlight or near appliances that generate heat.
Accessory Storage
Pull out storage trays (H) are located on the bottom front portion of the radio charger. These
compartments are convenient for storing small items such as drill and screwdriver bits.
Service Notes
This product is not user serviceable. There are no user serviceable parts inside the
radio/charger. Servicing at an authorized service center is required to avoid damage to static
sensitive internal components.
To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment should
be performed by certified service centers or other qualified service organizations, always
using identical replacement parts.
The RBRC™ Seal
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation)
Seal on the nickel-cadmium battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to
recycle the battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been
paid by Black & Decker. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel-cadmium batteries in
the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides an
environmentally conscious alternative.
RBRC in cooperation with Black & Decker and other battery users, has established
programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel-
cadmium batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by
returning the spent nickel-cadmium battery to an authorized Black & Decker service center
or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for
information on where to drop off the spent battery, or call 1-800-8-BATTERY.
