CAUTION: Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged in to the power supply, the charger can be 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 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.
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 designated Black+Decker rechargeable batteries.
Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
