DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids. This may cause premature cell failure.
Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 105°F (40˚C) (such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
WARNING: Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert into charger. Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has received a sharp blow, been dropped, run over or damaged in any way (i.e., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer, stepped on). Damaged battery packs should be returned to service center for recycling.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery so that metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not place battery in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc. Transporting batteries can possibly cause res if the battery terminals inadve rtently come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e., packed in suitcases and carryon l uggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.
NOTE:
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.
12VOLT MAX* BATTERY PACK (BDCDMT112) CHARGING, INSTALLING, AND REMOVING
12VOLT MAX* CHARGING PROCEDURE | A | |||
Black & Decker chargers are designed to charge Black & Decker |
| |||
battery packs in |
| |||
1. Plug the charger (1) into an appropriate outlet before inserting the |
| |||
battery pack (2). |
| |||
2. Insert the battery pack into the charger. (Figure A) |
| |||
|
|
| 3. The green LED will flash indicating that the battery pack is |
|
|
|
| ||
|
|
| being charged. |
|
|
|

|
|
| 4. The completion of charge is indicated by the green LED |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| remaining on continuously. The battery pack is fully charged |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| and may be used at this time or left on the charger. |
|
Recharge discharged batteries as soon as possible after use or battery life may
be greatly diminished. For longest battery life, do not discharge batteries fully. It is recommended that the batteries be recharged after each use.
CHARGER DIAGNOSTICS
This charger is designed to detect certain problems that can arise with the battery packs or the power source. Problems are indicated by one LED flashing in different patterns.
BAD BATTERY
The charger can detect a weak or damaged battery. The red LED flashes in the pattern indicated on the label. If you see this bad battery blink pattern, do not continue to charge
the battery. Return it to a service center or a collection site for recycling.
HOT/COLD PACK DELAY
When the charger detects a battery that is excessively hot or excessively cold, it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay, suspending charging until the battery has normalized. After
this happens, the charger automatically switches to the Pack Charging mode. This feature ensures maximum battery life. The red LED flashes in the pattern indicated on the label.
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°- 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery 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 battery pack.
