necessary. Use an approved extension cable suitable for the
power input of your charger (refer to Technical Data). The
minimum conductor size is 1 mm
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.
Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Chargers
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important
safety and operating instructions for compatible battery
chargers (refer to Technical Data). Before using charger, read all
instructions and cautionary markings on charger, battery pack, and
product using battery pack.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get
inside charger. Electric shock may result.
WARNING: We recommend the use of a residual current
device with a residual current rating of 30 mA or less.
CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge
only STANLEY rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries may
burst, causing personal injury and damage.
CAUTION: Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
NOTICE: Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged
into the power supply, the exposed charging contacts inside 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.
• 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 STANLEY rechargeable batteries. Any other uses
may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
• Pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger.
This will reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord.
• Make sure that 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 it is absolutely
necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in risk of
fire, electric shock, or electrocution.

; the maximum length is 30 m.
• Do not place any object on top of 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 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 authorised service centre.
• Do not disassemble charger; take it to an authorised service
centre when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly
may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.
• In case of damaged power supply cord, the supply cord must
be replaced immediately by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similar qualified person to prevent any hazard.
• 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 two chargers together.
• The charger is designed to operate on standard 230V
household electrical power. Do not attempt to use it on any
other voltage. This does not apply to the vehicular charger.
Charging a Battery
WARNING: Do not charge the battery at ambient
temperatures below 10 °C or above 40 °C. Recommended
charging temperature: approx. 24 °C.
The battery needs to be charged before first use and whenever
it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that were easily done
before. The battery may become warm while charging; this is
normal and does not indicate a problem.
nOtE: The charger will not charge a battery if the cell
temperature is below approximately 10 °C or above 40 °C. The
battery should be left in the charger and the charger will
begin to charge automatically when the cell temperature
warms up or cools down.
nOtE: To ensure maximum performance and life of lithium-ion
battery packs, charge the battery pack fully before first use.
1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet before inserting
battery pack
.
2. The green charging light will blink continuously indicating
that the charging process has started.
3. The completion of charge will be indicated by the green
charging light remaining ON continuously. The battery pack is
fully charged and may be removed and used at this time or left
in the charger.
4. Charge discharged batteries within 1 week. Battery life will
be greatly diminished if stored in a discharged state.
