When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE UNIT.

WARNING: Some household dust contains chemicals known to the

State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm such as asbestos and lead in lead based paint.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury:

• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Do not allow to be used as a toy.

• Shock Hazard. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put unit or charging base in water or other liquid.

• Do not use dry hand vacs to pick up liquids, toxic substances, flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they may be present.

• Do not use wet/dry hand vacs to pick up toxic substances, flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they may be present.

• Do not operate in the presence of explosives and/or flammable fumes or liquids.

• Shock Hazard. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or charger or after the appliance malfunctions, is left outdoors, dropped into water or is damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to any authorized service facility.

• Do not use dry hand vacs outdoors or on wet surfaces.

• Do not abuse the cord. Never carry the charger or base by the cord or yank to disconnect from an outlet; instead grasp the charger and pull to disconnect. Keep cord away from heated surfaces. Do not pull cord around sharp edges or corners.

• Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of a table or counter or touch hot surfaces. The unit should be placed or mounted away from sinks and hot surfaces.

• Do not use an extension cord. Plug the charger directly into an electrical outlet.

• Use the charger only in a standard electrical outlet (120V/60Hz).

• Do not attempt to use the charger with any other product; do not attempt to charge this product with any other charger. Use only the charger supplied by the manufacturer to recharge.

• Keep hair, loose clothing, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.

• Do not insert accessories when unit is running.

• Shock Hazard. Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.

• Do not put any object into unit openings. Do not use with any openings blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air flow.

• Fire Hazard. Do not vacuum burning or smoking materials, such as lit cigarette butts, matches or hot ashes.

• Do not use on or near hot surfaces.

• Use extra caution when cleaning on stairs.

• This appliance is intended for household use only and not for commercial or industrial use.

• Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturerʼs recommended attachments.

• Unplug the charger from outlet before any routine cleaning or maintenance.

• This product includes rechargeable nickel cadmium batteries. Do not incinerate batteries as they will explode at high temperatures.

• Leaks from battery cells can occur under extreme conditions. If the liquid, which is a 20-35% solution of potassium hydroxide, gets on the skin (1) wash quickly with soap and water or (2) neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar. If the liquid gets into the eyes, flush them immediately with clean water for a minimum of 10 minutes. Seek medical attention.

• Do not look into the air vents when the unit is switched on, as sometimes there is a possibility of small debris being discharged from the air vents, especially after cleaning / replacement of the filters as debris inside the unit can be disturbed.

Symbols

• The label on your tool may include the following symbols. The symbols and their

definitions are as follows:

V..................volts A ..................amperes

Hz................hertz W..................watts

min ..............minutes ................alternating current

............direct current

o ................no load speed

................Class I Construction ..................earthing terminal

(grounded) ................safety alert symbol

................Class II Construction .../min or rpm ........revolutions or reciprocation

(double insulated) per minute

• When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number,

the heavier the cord.

BATTERY REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL

This product uses nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) rechargeable and recyclable batteries. When the batteries no longer hold a charge, they should be removed from the Vac and recycled. They must not be incinerated or composted.

The batteries can be taken for disposal to a Black & Decker, Company-Owned or Authorized Service Center. Some local retailers are also participating in a national recycling program (see “RBRC

Seal”). Call your local retailer for details. If you bring the batteries to a Black & Decker Company-Owned or Authorized Service Center, the Center will arrange to recycle old batteries. Or, contact your local municipality for proper disposal instructions in your city/town. To remove the battery pack for disposal:

1.) First, before attempting to disassemble the product, turn it on and leave it on until the motor completely stops insuring a complete discharge of the batteries.

2.) Ensure nozzle is rotated out of storage position.

3.) Using a phillips screwdriver, remove the seven screws securing the two housing

halves.

4.) Lift the housing cover away from the assembly.

5.) Remove the single screw which secures the motor assembly. (located at bottom of unit, adjacent to the bowl.

6.) Lift out the motor assembly.

7.) Remove the three screws in the cover and lift the cover off of the assembly exposing the batteries.

8.) Detach motor connections and lift motor away from assembly.

9.) Detach all lead connections and remove batteries from battery casing.

10.) Dispose of batteries as per recommended guidelines.

The RBRC™ Seal

The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the nickel-cadmium battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to recycle the battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been paid by Black & Decker. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel-cadmium batteries in the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides an environmentally conscious alternative. RBRC in cooperation with Black & Decker and other battery users, has established programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickelcadmium batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by returning the spent nickel-cadmium battery to an authorized Black & Decker service center or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for information on where to drop off the spent battery, or call 1-800-8-BATTERY.
