Charging procedure (Fig 1)
1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet before inserting
battery pack.
2. Insert the battery pack into the charger. The red (charging)
light will blink continuously indicating 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.
NOTE: To ensure maximum performance and life of Li-Ion
batteries, charge the battery pack fully before first use.
Charging process
Refer the table below for the state of charge of the battery
pack.
State of charge - SC201 / SC202

Hot/cold pack delay
The SC201 / SC202 charger have a hot/cold delay feature.
When the charger detects a battery that is hot, it automatically
delays charging until the battery has cooled.
When the charger detects a battery that is cold, it
automatically delays charging until the battery has warmed.
The red light will continue to blink, but a yellow indicator light
will be illuminated during this operation. Once the battery has
cooled, the yellow light will turn off and the charger will resume
the charging procedure.
The tool will automatically turn off if the Electronic Protection
System engages. If this occurs, place the Li-Ion battery on the
charger until it is fully charged.
Li-ion battery packs only
The tool will automatically turn off if the Electronic Protection
System engages. If this occurs, place the Li-Ion battery on the
charger until it is fully charged.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL
BATTERY PACKS
When ordering replacement battery packs, be sure to include
catalog number and voltage.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. Before
using the battery pack and charger, read the safety
instructions below. Then follow charging procedures outlined.
Read all instructions
• Do not charge or use battery in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or removing the battery
from the charger may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Never force battery pack into charger. Do not modify
battery pack in any way to fit into a non-compatible
charger as battery pack may rupture causing serious
personal injury.
• Charge the battery packs only in STANLEY charger.
• DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations
where the temperature may reach or exceed 40 ˚C (105
˚F) (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). Electric shock or electrocution may result.
Damaged battery packs should be returned to
service centre for recycling.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its
side on a stable surface where it will not cause
a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with large
battery packs will stand upright on the battery pack
but may be easily knocked over.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM
ION (Li-Ion)
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely
damaged or is completely worn out. The battery pack
can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are
created when lithium ion battery packs are burned.
• If battery contents come into contact with the skin,
immediately wash area with mild soap and water. If
battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open
eye for 15 minutes or until irritation ceases. If medical
attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is composed of
a mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
• Contents of opened battery cells may cause
respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If symptoms
persists, seek medical attention.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be
flammable if exposed to spark or flame.
Transportation
STANLEY batteries comply with all applicable shipping
regulations as prescribed by industry and legal standards
which include UN Recommendations on the Transport of
Dangerous Goods; International Air Transport Association
(IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulations, International Maritime
Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Regulations, and the European
