INITIAL OPERATION

The mains supply must comply with the specifi cations
1.9 A
on the rating plate (Fig. 5).
The battery charger is suitable only for charging bat-
teries from the Bosch range of tools (NiCd/NiMH) with
voltages between 7.2 V and 14.4 V.
1
– Connect battery charger (6/2) to mains supply.
– Insert battery (6/1) into battery charger slot.
For the fi rst charge, leave the battery in the char-
ger for at least fi ve hours, regardless of the bat-
tery indicator (the charging time for all subsequent
charges is > 45 minutes).
For all subsequent charges, only recharge the bat-
tery when the LED indicator on the tool indi-cates
battery empty (see Chapter 6.3). Avoid charging
when the battery is not yet discharged. This will

ensure optimum battery capacity and life.
Maximum battery output will be reached after four or
fi ve charging/discharging cycles.
The charging process and error functions are indica-
ted by a green light (6/3) (see chapter 4.4).
The charging time is > 45 minutes.
The maximum charging current fl ows when the tem-
perature of the battery is between 15–40°C. Avoid
charging the battery at temperatures below 0°C and
above 40°C.
ved from the tool and charged/stored in the batte-
ry charger.
The intelligent charger with fuzzy control charges the
battery with the optimum rapid charging current,
depending on temperature and capacity. If fully char-
ged, a preserving charge will prevent self-discharge
and thus guarantee a long battery life.
