a Safety Information - Read First
⇒ For indoor use only.
⇒ Warning: Substitution of components may impair Intrinsic Safety of the
detector being charged.
⇒ Do not charge the battery pack with any other unapproved charger. Do not
use the charger, change the batteries, or charge the batteries in a
hazardous location. Failure to observe these precautions will impair the
Intrinsic Safety of the detector and can lead to fire and/or explosion.
⇒ Do not expose the charger to electrical shock or severe continuous
mechanical shock.
⇒ Ensure the battery pack is locked in place prior to operating the detector.
⇒ If the charger is damaged or parts are missing, contact
BW Technologies by Honeywell immediately.
⇒ To eliminate the risk of electrical shock, unplug the charger whenever
cleaning or other maintenance is required.
⇒ Avoid touching the charging cradle contact pins.
⇒ Use only BW approved batteries. Do not use alkaline or other non-
rechargeable batteries with this charger.
⇒ The detector must be deactivated before charging.
⇒ Do not calibrate the detector during or immediately after charging is
complete.

Charging
a Warning
To charge successfully, the temperature must be between
50°F to 95°F (10°C to 35°C). If the detector emits a low battery
alarm, charge the battery immediately.
When charging a new battery for the first time, fully charge the battery pack
before use (approximately 3.5 hours).
Note
If a fully charged battery is inserted into the charger, the charger
status LED lights red for 6 to 10 minutes and then changes to
green (does not damage the battery).
The detector can remain in the cradle after charging is complete.
Charging the battery pack in temperatures above 86°F (30°C)
greatly reduces the life of the battery pack.
The battery pack may be hot immediately after charging.
Approximately three charges are required to achieve a full charge
capacity for a new battery pack.
Charging the Battery Pack with the Detector
To charge the detector, complete the following:
1. Insert the power cord into the charger port. Refer to Figure 3.

2. Plug the power cord into a Vac outlet.
The charger performs a self-test. The charger LED lights red then
green during the test. When the self-test is complete, the LED
deactivates.
3. Deactivate the detector.
