E N G L I S H
•
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.
•
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.
•
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 household electrical power (refer to charger specifications). Do
not attempt to use it on any other voltage. This does not apply to the vehicular charger.

1.4 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 DEWALT®/POP®Avdel®.
•
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
(104 ˚F) (such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
•
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws
or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another.
•
Do not discard batteries into water.
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.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry the battery pack so that metal objects can contact exposed
battery terminals. When transporting individual battery packs, make sure that the battery terminals are
protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.
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.
