CHARGING PROCEDURE
Black and Decker chargers are designed to charge Black and Decker
battery packs: LCS36 (2 hrs), LCS436 (6 hrs).
1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet before inserting the
battery pack.
2. Insert the battery pack into the charger.
3.
The green LED will flash indicating that the battery is being
charged.
4.
The completion of charge is indicated by the green LED remaining on
continuously. The pack is fully charged and may be used at this time or left
on the charger.
Recharge discharged batteries as soon as possible after use or
battery life may be greatly diminished.
CHARGER DIAGNOSTICS
This charger is designed to detect certain problems that can arise
with the battery packs or the power source. Problems are indicated
by one LED flashing in different patterns.
BAD BATTERY
The charger can detect a weak or damaged battery. The red
LED flashes in the pattern indicated on the label. If you see this
bad battery blink pattern, do not continue to charge the battery.
Return it to a service center or a collection site for recycling.
HOT/COLD PACK DELAY
When the charger detects a battery that is excessively hot or excessively
cold, it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay, suspending charging
until the battery has normalized. After this happens, the charger
automatically switches to the Pack Charging mode. This feature ensures
maximum battery life. The red LED flashes in the pattern indicated on
the label when the hot / cold pack delay is detected.
LEAVING THE BATTERY IN THE CHARGER
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the green
LED glowing indefinitely. The charger will keep the battery pack
fresh and fully charged.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if
exposed to spark or flame.
• Charge the battery packs only in Black & Decker chargers.
• DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids. This may
cause premature cell failure.
• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations
wherethetemperaturemayreachorexceed105°F(40˚C)(such
as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
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). Damaged
battery packs should be returned to service center for recycling.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery so
that metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals. For
example, do not place battery in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit
boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc. Transporting
batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently
come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand
tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous
Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in
commerce or on airplanes (i.e., packed in suitcases and carry-on luggage)
UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when
transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are
protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and
cause a short circuit. NOTE: LI-ION batteries should not be put in
checked baggage.
STORAGE RECOMMENDATIONS
1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away from
direct sunlight and excess heat or cold.
2. Long-term storage will not harm the battery pack or charger,
unless the battery is depleted.
