Important Charging Notes; Storage Recommendations - Black and Decker LD120 Manual De Instrucciones

Caution! To reduce the risk of injury, use charger only
with this product. Batteries in other products may burst
causing personal injury or damage.
3. DO NOT expose charger to rain or snow.
4. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by
BLACK+DECKER may result in a risk of fire, electric
shock, or injury to persons.
5. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord,
pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger.
6. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped
on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage
or stress.
7. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result
in a risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
a.
Two-wire cords can be used with 2-wire or 3-wire
extension cords. Only round jacketed extension
cords should be used, and we recommend that
they be listed by Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.).
If the extension is to be used outside, the cord
must be suitable for outdoor use. Any cord marked
for outdoor use can also be used for indoor work.
The letters "W" or "WA" on the cord jacket indicate
that the cord is suitable for outdoor use.
b. An extension cord must have adequate wire size
(AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety, and
to prevent loss of power and overheating. 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 extension contains at least
the minimum wire size.
8. Use only the supplied charger when charging your tool.
The use of any other charger could damage the tool
or create a hazardous condition.
9. Use only one charger when charging.
10. DO NOT attempt to open the charger. There are no
customer serviceable parts inside. Return to any
authorized Black+Decker service center.
11. DO NOT incinerate the battery even if it is severely
damaged or is completely worn out. The batteries can
explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created
when lithium ion batteries are burned.
12. DO NOT charge or use battery in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Inserting or removing the drill from the charger
may ignite the dust or fumes.
13. If battery contents come into contact with the skin,
immediately wash area with mild soap and water. If
battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the
open eye for three minutes or until irritation ceases. If
medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is
composed of a mixture of liquid organic carbonates
and lithium salts.
Warning! Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if
exposed to spark or flame.

IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES

1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if
the battery pack is charged when the air temperature
is between 65°F and 75°F (18°C - 24°C).
2. DO NOT charge the batteries 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 batteries.
3. While charging, the charger may hum and become
warm to touch. This is a normal condition and does
not indicate a problem.
4. If the batteries do not charge properly:
a. Check current at receptacle by plugging in
a lamp or other appliance.
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light
switch which turns power off when you turn out
the lights.
c.
Move charger and tool to a surrounding air
temperature of 40°F (4,5°C) to 105°F (+40,5°C).
d. If the receptacle and temperature are OK, and
you do not get proper charging, take or
send the tool and charger to your local
BLACK+DECKER service center.
5. The tool should be recharged when it fails to produce
sufficient power on jobs which were easily done
previously. DO NOT CONTINUE using product with its
batteries in a depleted condition.
6. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but
not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any build up
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.
7. Do not freeze or immerse charger in water
or any other liquid.
Warning! Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get
inside charger. Never attempt to open the battery pack
for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack
breaks or cracks, return to a service center for recycling.

STORAGE RECOMMENDATIONS

1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry
away from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold.
2. Long storage will not harm the battery pack or charger.
