Important Safety Instructions for Battery
Chargers
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important
safety and operating instructions.
• Before using charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings
on (1) charger, (2) battery pack, and (3) product using battery pack.
DANGER: 120 volts present at charging terminals. Do not probe
with conductive objects. Danger of electric shock or electrocution.
DANGER: If battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not
insert into charger. Electric shock or electrocution may result.
• 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.
• Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
• These chargers are not intended for any uses other than
charging D
EWALT rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may
result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• Pull by the plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger.
This will reduce the risk of damage to the cord.
• Make sure 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 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.
RECOMMENDED MINIMUM AWG SIZE FOR EXTENSION CORDS
Total Extension Cord Length (feet)
25 50 75 100 125 150 175
Wire Gauge
18 18 16 16 14 14 12
• Do not place any object on top of charger or place the charg-
er on a soft surface that might block the ventilation slots and
result in excessive internal heat. Place the charger in a position
away from any heat source. The charger is ventilated through slots
in the top and the bottom of the housing.
• Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug — have
them replaced immediately.
• Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been
dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to an autho-
rized service center.
• Do not disassemble charger; take it to an authorized service
center when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly
may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.
• Unplug charger from outlet before attempting any cleaning.
This will reduce risk of electric shock. Removing the battery pack
will not reduce this risk.
• NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers together.
• DO NOT store or use the tool and battery pack in locations
where the temperature may reach or exceed 105°F (such as
outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
• The charger is designed to operate on standard household
electrical power (120 Volts). Do not attempt to use it on any
other voltage. This does not apply to the vehicular charger.
Charging Procedure
1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet.
2. Insert the battery pack into the charger. Be sure the pack is fully seat-
ed in the charger. The red (charging) light will blink continuously indi-
cating that the charging process has started.
3. The completion of charge will be indicated by the red light remaining
ON continuously. The pack is fully charged and may be used at this
time or left in the charger.
WARNING: Don't allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric
shock may result. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after
use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment
such as in a metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.
