• Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not
be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to
damage orstress.
• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely
necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in
risk of fire, electric shock orelectrocution.
• When operating a charger outdoors, always provide
a dry location and use an extension cord suitable
for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electricshock.
• An extension cord must have adequate wire size
(AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller
the gauge number of the wire, the heavier the cord and
thus the greater its capacity. 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 total length of all extension cords
plugged together, and nameplate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use the next heaviergauge.

• Do not place any object on top of the charger or place
the charger on a soft surface that might block the
ventilation slots and result in excessive internal heat.
Place the charger in a position away from any heat source.
The charger is ventilated through slots in the top and the
bottom of thehousing.
• Do not operate the charger with a damaged cord
orplug. Have them replacedimmediately.
• Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp
blow, been dropped or otherwise damaged in any
way. Take it to an authorized servicecenter.
• Do not disassemble the charger; take it to an
authorized service center when service or repair
is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of
electric shock, electrocution orfire.
• The charger is designed to operate on standard
120V household electrical power. Do not attempt to
use it on any other voltage. This does not apply to the
vehicularcharger.
• Foreign materials of a conductive nature, such as, but
not limited to, grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool,
aluminum foil or any buildup of metallic particles
should be kept away from the charger cavities and
ventilation slots.
• Always unplug the charger from the power supply
when there is no battery pack in thecavity.

Shipping the DeWALT FLEXVOLT™ Battery Pack
The
DeWALT FLEXVOLT™ battery pack has a battery cap that
should be used when shipping the batterypack.
Attach the cap to the battery pack to ready it for shipping.
This converts the battery pack to three separate 20V
batteries. The three batteries have the Watt hour rating
labeled “Shipping” on the battery pack. If shipping without
the cap or in a tool, the pack is one battery at the Watt hour
rating labeled"Use."
Example battery pack label:
USE: 120Wh SHIPPING: 3x 40Wh
In this example, the battery pack is three batteries with
40Watt hours each when using the cap. Otherwise, the
battery pack is one battery with 120Watthours.
not be put in checked baggage on airplanes and must
be properly protected from short circuits if they are in
carry-onbaggage.
Important Safety Instructions for All
Battery Chargers
WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions,
and cautionary markings for the battery pack,
charger and product. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric
shock, fire and/or seriousinjury.
• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with
any chargers other than a
DeWALT charger. DeWALT
chargers and battery packs are specifically designed to
worktogether.
• These chargers are not intended for any uses other
than charging
DeWALT rechargeable battery packs.
Charging other types of battery packs may cause them to
overheat and burst, resulting in personal injury, property
damage, fire, electric shock orelectrocution.
• Do not expose the charger to rain orsnow.
• Do not allow water or any liquid to entercharger.
• Pull by the plug rather than the cord when
disconnecting the charger. This will reduce the risk of
damage to the electric plug andcord.
