BATTERIES

The product is not fully charged out of the carton. Before using the product, read the safety instructions below and then follow the charging procedures outlined.

NOTE: If the product is unused for approximately 90 days, fully charge the battery to help prolong the life of the battery.

Important Safety Instructions for All Integral Battery Charging

WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, and cautionary markings for the battery, charging cable and product. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

WARNING: Only charge product using a Listed Class 2 Power adapter that is compliant with applicable country regulations and international/regional safety standards. Using adapters that do not meet applicable safety standards could result in injury.

WARNING: Do not charge the battery at ambient temperatures below 40 °F (4 °C) or above 104 °F

(40 °C). Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery outside of the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside of the specified range may damage the battery and increase risk of fire.

- Do not expose a battery to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 266 °F (130 °C) may cause explosion.

- Only use the charging cable supplied by the manufacturer for charging.

- The provided charging cable is not intended for any uses other than charging DEWALT rechargeable tools with charging ports. Charging other types of tools may cause their batteries to overheat and burst, resulting in personal injury, property damage, fire, electric shock or electrocution.

• DO NOT expose charging cable to water, rain or snow.

- Pull by the plugs rather than the cord when disconnecting the charging cable. This will reduce the risk of damage to the plugs and cord.

• Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

- DO NOT use a charging cable with a damaged cord or plugs. Have them replaced immediately.

- Foreign materials of a conductive nature, such as, but not limited to, grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool, aluminum foil or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from the charging plugs and port.

• Always unplug the charging cable from the power supply when there is no tool attached to it.

Charging Procedure (Fig. A, B)

1. Pull the USB charging port cover 11 away from the speaker.

2. Insert the USB charging plug 10 into the charging port 13.

3. Plug the USB charger plug 9 into any USB charging port (such as on a computer or wall adapter).

nOTE: Charging takes two hours depending on power supply rating (5V, 1A).

1. The charge indicator LED 12 color will be red and remain continuously on while charging.

2. Charging is complete when the charge indicator LED 12 color is green or turns off.

3. The battery can be left charging or the USB charging cable can be disconnected.

Hot/Cold Delay

When the speaker detects that the battery is too hot or too cold, it automatically starts a hot/cold delay, suspending charging until the battery has reached an appropriate temperature. The speaker then automatically switches to charging mode. This feature ensures maximum battery life.

1. A cold battery may charge at a slower rate than a warm battery.

2. The unit can still be used during the over temperature protection cycle.

Important Charging Notes

1. The speaker may become warm to the touch while charging. This is a normal condition, and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the speaker after use, avoid placing the speaker in a warm environment such as in a metal shed or an uninsulated trailer.

2. If the speaker does not charge properly, take the speaker and USB cable to your local service center.

3. You may charge a partially discharged battery whenever you desire with no adverse effect on the speaker.

Checking State of Charge (Fig. A)

- When the speaker is powered on, momentarily press the power button 1 and the speaker will say the percentage of charge remaining in the battery.

- The charge indicator LED 12 will also indicate the state of charge when the speaker is not being charged per the Charge Indicator LED Status chart.

NOTE: The state of charge does not indicate tool functionality and is subject to variation based on product components, temperature and end-user application.
