18V POWER FOR ALL system batteries with
a capacity of 1.5 Ah. The battery voltage
must match the battery charging voltage
of the charger. Do not charge any non-re-
chargeable batteries. Otherwise there is a risk
of fi re and explosion.
Only use the charger in enclosed spaces
and do not expose it to wet conditions. Water
entering a charger in- creases the risk of electric shock.
Keep the charger clean. Dirt poses a risk of
electric shock.
Always check the charge, including the
cable and plug, before use. Stop using the
charger if you discover any damage. Do
not open the charger yourself, and have it
repaired only by Bosch or by an authorised
after-sales service centre using only original
replacement parts. Damaged chargers, cables
and plugs increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not operate the charger on an easily
ignited surface (e.g. paper, textiles, etc.)
or in a fl ammable environment. There is a
risk of fi re due to the charger heating up during
operation.
Do not cover the ventilation slots of the
charger. Otherwise, the charger may overheat
and no long function properly.
Recharge only with the charger specifi ed
by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable
for one type of batterypack may create a risk of
fi re when used with another battery pack.
In case of damage and improper use of
the battery, vapours may also be emitted.
Ensure the area is well-ventilated and seek med-
ical attention should you experience any adverse
effects. The vapours may irritate the respiratory
system.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, fl ush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
Products sold in GB only:
Your product is fi tted with an BS 1363/A approved
electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS
1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it
should be cut off and an appropriate plug fi tted in its
place by an authorised customer service agent. The
replacement plug should have the same fuse rating
as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a
possible shock hazard and should never be inserted
into a mains socket elsewhere.

Charging process
Pay attention to the mains voltage. The volt-
age of the power source must match the voltage
specifi ed on the rating plate of the charger.
Ensure that the charging bay (1) and the battery
contacts are free of coarse dirt. Ensure that the
battery is fully inserted.
The charging process begins as soon as the mains
plug for the charger is inserted into the mains socket
and the battery is inserted into the charging bay (1).
The charging process is only possible when the
temperature of the battery is within the permitted
charging temperature range (0–45 °C).
Thanks to the intelligent charging process, the state
of charge of the battery is automatically detected
and then charged up with the optimal charge current
depending on battery temperature and voltage.
In this way, the battery is treated with care and
remains permanently fully charged when it is stored in
the battery charger. A signifi cantly reduced operating
time after charging indicates that the battery has
deteriorated and must be replaced.
When the charger is used continuously, or for several
consecutive charge cycles without interruption, the
charger may heat up. This is, however, harmless and
does not indicate that the charger has a technical
defect.

required in minutes in order to fully charge the battery,
