Charging the Power Pack
Warning! Battery shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.
The radio charger should be used in a well ventilated area only.
The radio charger is designed to use standard household 230 Vac.
Insert the plug of the power adaptor into the radio charger as shown in Figure B. Insure that the charger plug is correctly aligned with the radio socket before pushing to full depth.
Plug the power adaptor into any standard 230 Vac electrical outlet.
NOTE: Do not charge by means of an engine generator or DC power source. Use only 230 Vac.
Slide the power pack into the back of the unit as shown in Figure C. Make sure the power pack is fully seated in the port and let the pack charge initially for 9 hours. After the initial charge, under normal usage, your power pack should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours.
The amber charger light on the radio face (fig. D) will light indicating that the charging process has started.
Important charging notes
After normal usage, your power pack should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours. If the pack is run-down completely, it may take up to 9 hours to become fully charged. Your power pack was sent from the factory in an uncharged condition. Before attempting to use it, you must charge for at least 9 hours.
DO NOT charge the power pack in an air temperature below 4^ or above 40^ . This is important and will prevent serious damage to the power pack. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if power packs are charged when air temperature is about 25^ .
While charging, the charger may hum and become warm to touch. This is a normal condition and does not indicate a problem.
If the power pack does not charge properly:
-
Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance.
-
Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off when you turn out the lights.
Move charger and battery pack to a surrounding air temperature of 4^ to 40^ . -
Check to see that the amber charging indicator light is lit on the face of the unit.
- If the receptacle, surrounding temperature and charging indicator light are OK, and you do not get proper charging, take or send the power pack and radio charger to your local Black & Decker Service Centre
The power pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE using pack in a depleted condition.
The power pack will reach optimum performance after being cycled 5 times during normal usage. There is no need to run the pack down completely before recharging. Normal usage is the best method of discharging and recharging.
The exposed charging contacts of the radio charger can be accidentally shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminium foil, or any build up of metallic particles should be kept away from radio charger cavities. Unplug radio charger before attempting the clean it.
