The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without re-
ducing its service life. Interrupting the charging procedure
does not damage the battery.
The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharging
by the "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)". When the battery is
empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective
circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates.
Do not continue to press the On/Off
WARNING
switch after the machine has been au-
tomatically switched off. The battery can be damaged.
To remove the battery 4 press the unlocking buttons 3 and
pull out the battery downwards. Do not exert any force.
The battery is equipped with a NTC temperature control
which allows charging only within a temperature range of be-
tween 0 °C and 45 °C. A long battery service life is achieved
in this manner.
Observe the notes for disposal.
Changing the Tool (see figure B)
Before any work on the machine itself (e. g. mainte-
nance, tool change, etc.) as well as during transport
and storage, remove the battery from the power tool.
There is danger of injury when unintentionally actuating
the On/Off switch.
Do not use double-sided screwdriver blades that are
longer than 25 mm.
Insert the screwdriver bit 1 directly into the tool holder 2.
Operation
Starting Operation
Inserting the Battery
Use only original Bosch lithium ion batteries with the
voltage listed on the nameplate of your power tool. Us-
ing other batteries can lead to injuries and pose a fire haz-
ard.
Note: Use of batteries not suitable for the machine can lead to
malfunctions of or cause damage to the power tool.
Set the rotational direction switch 6 to the centre position in
order to avoid unintentional starting. Insert the charged bat-
tery 4 into the handle so that it can be felt to engage and faces
flush against the handle.
Reversing the Rotational Direction (see figure C)
The rotational direction switch 6 is used to reverse the rota-
tional direction of the machine. However, this is not possible
with the On/Off switch 5 actuated.
Right rotation: For driving in screws, push the rotational di-
rection switch 6 left to the stop.
Left Rotation: For loosening or unscrewing screws, push the
rotational direction switch 6 right to the stop.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 5 and keep it
pressed.
Bosch Power Tools
The power light 7 lights up when the On/Off switch 5 is slightly
or completely pressed, and allows the work area to be illumi-
nated when lighting conditions are insufficient.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 5.
Adjusting the Speed
The speed of the switched on power tool can be variably ad-
justed, depending on how far the On/Off switch 5 is pressed.
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 5 results in a low rotation-
al speed. Further pressure on the switch results in an increase
in speed.
Fully automatic spindle locking (Auto-lock)
When the On/Off switch 5 is not pressed, the drill spindle and
thus the tool holder are locked.
This enables screws to be screwed in, even when the battery
is empty and allows for the machine to be used as a screwdriv-
er.
Temperature Dependent Overload Protection
When using as intended for, the power tool cannot be subject
to overload. When the load is too high or the allowable battery
temperature range of 0–70 °C is exceeded, the speed is re-
duced. The power tool will not run at full speed until reaching
the allowable battery temperature.
Protection Against Deep Discharging
The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharging
by the "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)". When the battery is
empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective
circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates.
Working Advice
Apply the power tool to the screw only when it is
switched off. Rotating tool inserts can slip off.
Before screwing larger, longer screws into hard materials, it is
advisable to predrill a pilot hole with the core diameter of the
2
thread to approx. / of the screw length.

Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any work on the machine itself (e. g. mainte-
nance, tool change, etc.) as well as during transport
and storage, remove the battery from the power tool.
There is danger of injury when unintentionally actuating
the On/Off switch.
For safe and proper working, always keep the machine
and ventilation slots clean.
When the battery is no longer operative, please refer to an au-
thorised after-sales service agent for Bosch power tools.
If the machine should fail despite the care taken in manufac-
turing and testing procedures, repair should be carried out by
an after-sales service centre for Bosch power tools.
In all correspondence and spare parts order, please always in-
clude the 10-digit article number given on the type plate of
the machine.
