SAFETY RULES FOR CHARGER

WARNING!

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

Before using charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings in this manual, on charger, battery, and product using battery to prevent misuse of the products and possible injury or damage.

WARNING:

Charge only one nickel-cadmium or lithium-ion rechargeable battery at a time. Other types of batteries may burst, causing personal injury, fire, or damage. For compatible battery packs see tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correlation supplement 987000-432.

Do not use charger outdoors or expose to wet or damp conditions. Water entering charger will increase the risk of electric shock.

Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.

Do not abuse cord or charger. Never use the cord to carry the charger. Do not pull the charger cord rather than the plug when disconnecting from receptacle. Damage to the cord or charger could occur and create an electric shock hazard. Replace damaged cords immediately.

Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, come in contact with sharp edges or moving parts or otherwise subjected to damage or stress. This will reduce the risk of accidental falls, which could cause injury, and damage to the cord, which could result in electric shock.

Keep cord and charger away from heat to prevent damage to housing or internal parts.

Do not let gasoline, oils, petroleum-based products, etc. come in contact with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can damage, weaken, or destroy plastic.

Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in possible serious injury.

An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If extension cord must be used, make sure:

a.That pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those of plug on charger.

b.That extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition; and

c.That wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating of charger as specified below:

Cord Length (Feet)	25'	50'	100'
Cord Size (AWG)	16	16	16

NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gauge

Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or plug, which could cause shorting and electric shock. If damaged, have the charger replaced by an authorized serviceman.

Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way.

Take it to an authorized serviceman for electrical check to determine if the charger is in good working order.

Do not disassemble charger. Take it to an authorized serviceman when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

Unplug charger from outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of electric shock.

Disconnect charger from the power supply when not in use. This will reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the charger if metal items should fall into the opening. It also will help prevent damage to the charger during a power surge.

Risk of electric shock. Do not touch un-insulated portion of output connector or un-insulated battery terminal.

Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions also to prevent misuse of the product and possible injury.

LEDs provide feedback to indicate whether the battery pack is charging, fully charged, or defective.

DUAL CHEMISTRY

The battery charger can charge either lithium-ion or nickelcadmium batteries.

energy save mode

Energy Star® qualified systems enter Energy Save Mode when not charging or when maintaining batteries. This allows the charger to conserve energy by charging batteries only as needed, and also protects the cells and maximizes the life of your batteries.

energy star® qualified

This battery charger meets the Energy Star®energy-efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy. Battery chargers meeting this standard use an average of 35% less energy than conventional battery chargers.

KEY HOLE HANGER

The charger has a key hole hanging feature for convenient, space saving storage. Screws should be installed so that the center distance is 4-1/2 in.

APPLICATIONS

You may use this product for the following purpose:  Charging compatible Ryobi 18 volt battery packs

NOTICE:

If at any point during the charging process none of the LEDs are lit, remove the battery pack from the charger to avoid damaging the product. DO NOT insert another battery. Return the charger and battery to your nearest authorized service center for service or replacement.

NOTICE:

Charge in a well-ventilated area. Do not block charger vents. Keep them clear to allow proper ventilation.

CHARGING

See Figure 2, page 9.

Battery packs are shipped in a low charge condition to prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge them before first use. If the charger does not charge your battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and charger to your nearest repair center for electrical check.

Make sure the power supply is normal household voltage,

120 volts, AC only, 60 Hz.

Connect the charger to a power supply.

Attach the battery pack to the charger by aligning the raised ribs on the battery pack with the grooves in the charger, then slide the battery pack onto the charger.

Press down on the battery pack to be sure contacts on the battery pack engage properly with contacts in the charger. Latches should snap into place to ensure charger is correctly connected.

Do not place the charger in an area of extreme heat or cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.

The battery pack may become slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.

After charging is complete, the green LEDs will remain on while the charger is in Maintenance Mode.

After completing Maintenance Mode, the green LEDs will begin fading on/off continuously. This indicates the battery is fully charged and the charger is in Energy Save Mode.

Charger will periodically wake from Energy Save Mode to ensure the battery pack remains in a fully charged state.

To remove the battery pack from the charger, depress latches and pull up on the battery pack.

CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK

When using a tool continuously, the battery pack may become hot. A hot battery pack may be placed directly onto the charger port but charging will not begin until the battery temperature cools to within acceptable temperature range. When a hot battery pack is placed on the charger, the red LED will begin flashing and the green LED will be off. When the battery pack cools, the charger will automatically begin charging.

CHARGING A COLD BATTERY PACK

A cold battery pack may be placed directly onto the charger port but charging will not begin until the battery temperature warms to within acceptable temperature range. When a cold battery pack is placed on the charger, the red LED will begin flashing and the green LED will be off. When the battery pack warms, the charger will automatically begin charging.
