Troubleshooting
Display indications, common problems and possible
solutions:
No Functions
Make sure that the battery charger is plugged into a live
230 Vac outlet.
Follow the steps outlined in the "Connecting the battery
charger" at the front of this manual.
F01 - Internal shorted cell battery
If the battery being charged has an internal shorted cell, F01
will be displayed. We recommend taking your battery to a
certified automotive service centre for evaluation.
F02 - Bad battery connection or battery voltage too low
to accept a charge
When F02 is displayed, the most common cause is a poor
connection to the battery.
Follow the steps outlined in "Safety instructions" at the
front of this manual to disconnect the ac power cord and
the battery clamps (4), clean the battery terminals and
reconnect the battery charger.
If the situation persists, we recommend taking your battery
to a certified automotive service centre for evaluation.
F03 - Internal open cell
Have the battery checked by a certified automotive service
center.
F04 - Overtime condition
F04 is displayed when the charging time exceeds 18 hours.
You may be using a charging rate that is too low for the size
of the battery. Select a higher charging rate to charge the
battery.
F05 - Overheated condition
F05 is displayed to indicate that the battery charger is
overheating. The ventilation grill is blocked.
Follow the steps outlined in "Safety instructions" at the
front of this manual to disconnect the ac power cord and
the battery clamps (4), allow the appliance to cool for 30
minutes and reconnect.
Make sure that there is ample ventilation before resuming
operation.
Charging a very cold battery
If the battery to be charged is very cold i.e., in temperatures
below freezing (0°C/ 32°F), it cannot accept a high rate of
charge. The initial charge rate will be low. The charge rate
will increase as the battery warms. Never attempt to charge
a frozen battery.

Protecting the environment

Should you find one day that your appliance
needs replacement, or if it is of no further use to
you, think of the protection of the environment.
Black & Decker repair agents will accept old
Black & Decker tools and ensure that they are
disposed of in an environmentally safe way.
Separate collection of used products and
packaging allows materials to be recycled and
used again. Re-use of recycled materials helps
prevent environmental pollution and reduces the
demand for raw materials.
Local regulations may provide for separate collection of
electrical products from the household, at municipal waste
sites or by the retailer when you purchase a new product.
Black & Decker provides a facility for the collection and
recycling of Black & Decker products once they have reached
the end of their working life. To take advantage of this
service please return your product to any authorised repair
agent who will collect them on our behalf.
You can check the location of your nearest authorised repair
agent by contacting your local Black & Decker office at the
address indicated in this manual. Alternatively, a list of
authorised Black & Decker repair agents and full details of
our after-sales service and contacts are available on the
Internet at: www.2helpU.com.
Lead acid batteries can be recharged many times.
At the end of their useful life, discard batteries
with due care for our environment:
Do not dispose of the battery in fire, as this may result in an
explosion.
Lead acid (Pb) batteries are recyclable. They must not be
disposed of with household waste. The battery must be
removed and disposed of in accordance with local
regulations.
Do not short-circuit the battery terminals.
Be aware that the battery is heavy.
If possible, operate the appliance to run the battery down
completely.
Place the battery in a suitable packaging to ensure that the
terminals cannot be short-circuited.
Take the battery to your service agent or a local recycling
station. Collected batteries will be recycled or disposed of
properly.
