CAUTION: Under certain conditions,
with the charger plugged into the power supply, the
charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign
materials of a conductive nature, such as, but not
limited to, grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool,
aluminum foil or any buildup of metallic particles
should be kept away from the charger cavities. Always
unplug the charger from the power supply when there
is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug the charger

indicator light will be illuminated during this operation.
Once the battery pack has reached an appropriate
temperature, the yellow light will turn off and the charger
will resume the charging procedure.
A charger will not charge a faulty battery pack. The charger
refusing to light could indicate a problem with the charger
or a faulty battery pack.
NOTE: If the charger refuses to light, take the charger and
battery pack to be tested at an authorized servicecenter.
Leaving the Battery Pack In the Charger
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with
the charge indicator showing pack charged.

• Do not place any object on top of the charger or
place the charger 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 the charger with a damaged cord
orplug–have them replaced immediately.
• Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp
blow, been dropped or otherwise damaged in any
way. Take it to an authorized servicecenter.
• Do not disassemble the 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.
• Disconnect the charger from the outlet before
attempting any cleaning. This will reduce the risk of
electric shock. Removing the battery pack will not reduce
thisrisk.
• NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargerstogether.
• The charger is designed to operate on standard
120V household electrical power. Do not attempt to
use it on any other voltage. This does not apply to the
vehicularcharger.
