ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR BATTERIES AND CHARGERS
Batteries
Never attempt to open for any reason.
Do not expose the battery to water.
Do not expose the battery to heat.
Do not store in locations where the temperature may
exceed 40 °C.
Charge only at ambient temperatures between 10 °C and
40 °C.
Charge only using the charger provided with the
appliance/tool.
When disposing of batteries, follow the instructions given
in the section "Protecting the environment".
Do not damage/deform the battery pack either by puncture
or impact, as this may create a risk of injury and fire.
Do not charge damaged batteries.
Under extreme conditions, battery leakage may occur.
When you notice liquid on the batteries carefully wipe the
liquid off using a cloth. Avoid skin contact.
In case of skin or eye contact, follow the instructions below.
Warning! The battery fluid may cause personal injury or
damage to property. In case of skin contact, immediately rinse
with water. If redness, pain or irritation occurs seek medical
attention. In case of eye contact, rinse immediately with clean
water and seek medical attention.
Chargers
Your charger has been designed for a specific voltage.
Always check that the mains voltage corresponds to the
voltage on the rating plate.
Warning! Never attempt to replace the charger unit with a
regular mains plug.
Use your Black & Decker charger only to charge the
battery in the tool with which it was supplied. Other
batteries could burst, causing personal injury and damage.
Never attempt to charge non-rechargeable batteries.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or an authorised Black & Decker Service
Centre in order to avoid a hazard.
Have defective cords replaced immediately.
Do not expose the charger to water.
Do not open the charger.
Do not probe the charger.
The appliance/tool/battery must be placed in a well
ventilated area when charging.
The charger is intended for indoor use only.
Read the instruction manual before use.
Fail safe isolating transformer. The mains supply is
electrically separated from the transformer output.
The charger automatically shuts off if the ambient
temperature becomes too high. As a consequence
the charger will be inoperable. The unit must be
disconnected from the mains supply and taken to an
authorised service centre for repair.
