▼ LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES
If equipped with a lithium-ion battery, the battery
must be collected, recycled or disposed of in an
environ mentally sound manner.
" The EPA cer tified RBRC
Battery Recycling Seal on the
lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery
indicates Robert Bosch Tool
Corporation is voluntarily
participating in an industry
program to collect and recycle these batteries
at the end of their useful life, when taken out of
service in the United States or Canada. The
RBRC program provides a convenient alterative
to placing used Li-ion batteries into the trash or
the munici pal waste stream, which may be
illegal in your area.
14. Do not use attachments not recommended

recommended may result in electric shock or fire.
15. Do not store battery pack in charger. Battery
pack stored in charger over a long period of time
