• DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations
where the temperature may reach or exceed 105°F (40˚)
(such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
WARNING: Never attempt to open the battery pack for any
reason. If battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert
into charger. Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has received a sharp blow, been
dropped, run over or damaged in any way (i.e., pierced with a nail,
hit with a hammer, stepped on). Damaged battery packs should be
returned to service center for recycling.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery so
that metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals.
For example, do not place battery in aprons, pockets, tool boxes,
product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.
Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery
terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive
materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The
US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations
(HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or
on airplanes (i.e., packed in suitcases and carry-on luggage)
UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So
when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery
terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could
contact them and cause a short circuit.
The RBRC™ Seal
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling
Corporation) Seal on the lithium ion 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 D
EWALT.
RBRC™ in cooperation with D
EWALT and other battery users, has
established programs in the United States to facilitate the collection
of spent lithium ion batteries. Help protect our environment and
conserve natural resources by returning the spent lithium ion
battery to an authorized D
EWALT 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.
RBRC™ is a registered trademark of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling
Corporation.
Storage Recommendations
1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away from
direct sunlight and excess heat or cold.
2. Long storage will not harm the battery pack or charger. Under
proper conditions, they can be stored for 5 years or more.

Your battery pack requires a 1 hour DEWALT charger. Be sure
to read all safety instructions before using your charger. Consult
the chart on the back of this manual for compatibility of chargers
and battery packs.
Charging Procedure
1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet before inserting the
battery pack.

with a three-light fuel gauge that will blink according to the state
