Recommendations for Optimal Han-
dling of the Battery
 Ensure the switch is in the off posi-
tion before inserting battery pack.
Inserting the battery pack into ma-
chines that have the switch on can
cause accidents.
 Keep the battery charger away
from rain or moisture. Penetration
of water in the battery charger in-
creases the risk of an electric shock.

Recharge only with the charger
specified by the manufacturer. A
charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
 Do not charge other batteries. The
battery charger is suitable only for
charging Bosch lithium-ion batteries
within the listed voltage range. Other-
wise there is danger of fire and explo-
sion.
 Keep the battery charger clean.
Contamination can lead to danger of
an electric shock.

Before each use, check the battery
charger, cable and plug. If damage
is detected, do not use the battery
charger. Never open the battery
charger yourself. Have repairs per-
formed only by a qualified techni-
cian and only using original spare
parts. Damaged battery chargers, ca-
bles and plugs increase the risk of an
electric shock.

Do not operate the battery charger
on easily inflammable surfaces
(e. g., paper, textiles, etc.) or sur-
roundings. The heating of the battery

charger during the charging process
can pose a fire hazard.
 Use only Bosch battery packs in-
tended specifically for the ma-
chine. Use of any other battery packs
may create a risk of injury and fire.
 When battery pack is not in use,
keep it away from other metal ob-
jects like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws, or other small metal
objects that can make a connection
from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals to-
gether may cause burns or a fire.
 Under abusive conditions, liquid
may be ejected from the battery;
avoid contact. If contact acciden-
tally occurs, flush with water. If liq-
uid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected
from the battery may cause irritations
or burns.
 Do not open the battery. Danger of
short-circuiting.
 Protect the battery against heat,
e. g., against continuous intense
sunlight, fire, water, and moisture.
Danger of explosion.
 Do not short-circuit the battery.
There is danger of explosion.
 In case of damage and improper
use of the battery, vapours may be
emitted. Ventilate the area and
seek medical help in case of com-
plaints. The vapours can irritate the
respiratory system.

Protect the battery against moisture
and water.
