WARNING:
THE CHARGER SUPPLIED WITH THIS PRODUCT IS INTENDED TO BE PLUGGED IN SUCH THAT
IT IS CORRECTLY ORIENTATED IN A VERTICAL OR FLOOR MOUNT POSITION.
• 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 designatedC
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.
