Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage. 4) Do not expose charger and battery pack to rain or snow or use in damp location. 5) Use of an attachment not recommended may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. 6) To reduce risk of damaging the electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger. 7) An extension cord should not be used. 8) Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug - replace them immediately. 9) Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to a qualified service agent. 10) Do not disassemble charger; take it to a qualified service agent when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire. 11) To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. 12) Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress. 13) The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together. Do not attempt to charge any other cordless tool or battery pack with this charger. Do not attempt to charge the battery pack with any other charger. 14) Do not attempt to disassemble the battery charger and the battery pack housing. 15) Do not store the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 50°C (122°F) (such as metal tool shed, or a car in the summer), which can lead to deterioration of the storage battery. 16) Do not charge battery pack when the temperature is BELOW 0°C (32°F) or ABOVE 40°C (104°F). 17) Do not incinerate the battery pack. It can explode in a fire. 18) The charger is designed to operate on standard household electrical power only. Charge only on the voltage indicated on the nameplate. Do not attempt to use it on any other voltage! 19) Do not abuse cord. Never carry charger by cord or yank it to disconnect from outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil and sharp edges. 20) Charge the battery pack in a well ventilated place. Do not cover the charger and battery pack with a cloth, etc., while charging. 21) Do not short the battery pack. A battery short can cause a large current flow, over heating and burns. 22) NOTE: If the supply cord of this appliance is damaged, it must only be replaced by a repair shop appointed by the manufacturer, because special purpose tools are required. 23) The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. 24) Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. --3-- CHARGING THE BATTERY Note: When you charge the battery pack for the first-time, or after prolonged storage, charge it for about 24 hours to bring the batteries up to full capacity. 1. Plug the charger into an AC outlet. EY0225: · Sparks may be produced when the plug is inserted into the AC power supply, but this is not a problem in terms of safety. 2. Insert the battery pack firmly into the charger. Battry pack 2 To AC outlet 1 Battery charger (* EY0230 is referred for illustration.) EY0214: · When charging, cooling fan in the charger functions to cool down the battery pack, and the sound of fan can be heard. This is normal. If this sound cannot be heard, it is a malfunction. Stop charging immediately and consult an authorized dealer. 3. During charging, the charging lamp will light up. When the charge is completed, an internal electronic switch will automatically be triggered to prevent overcharging. · Charging will not occur if the battery pack is warm (for example, immediately after heavy-duty operation). The orange standby lamp will light up until the battery becomes cool. Charging will then begin automatically. 4. When charging is completed, the charging lamp will start flashing quickly. EY0230/EY0214: · When the battery pack has not been used for a long time, the charging lamp starts flashing slowly to indicate protective charging. Protective charging takes longer to fully charge the battery pack, then the standard charging time. (Max. charging time is approx. 90 minutes.) 5. If a fully charged battery pack is inserted into the charger again, the charging lamp may light up. After several minutes, the charging lamp may flash quickly to indicate the charging is completed. · If the charging lamp does not light immediately after the charger is plugged in, or if after the standard charging time the lamp does not go off, consult an authorized dealer. Note: · When a cold battery (of about 5°C or less) is to be charged in a warm room, leave the battery in the room for at least one hour. Charge the battery when the battery temperature has leveled with room temperature. (Failing to do so may result in less than a full charge.) · Cool down the charger when charging more than two battery packs consecutively. · Do not insert your fingers into contact hole, when holding charger or any other occasions. CAUTION: · Do not use power source from an engine generator. · Do not cover vent holes on the charger and the battery pack. · Unplug the charger when not in use. --4-- ONLY FOR U. K.
