Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the
Battery
 Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting
battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into machines
that have the switch on can cause accidents.
 Use only Bosch battery packs intended specifically for
the machine. Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
 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.
 In case of damage and improper use of the battery,
vapours may be emitted. Ventilate the area and seek
medical help in case of complaints. The vapours can
irritate the respiratory system.
 Use the battery only in conjunction with your Bosch
product. This measure alone protects the battery against
dangerous overload.
 The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such as
nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally. An
internal short circuit can occur and the battery can burn,
smoke, explode or overheat.
 Do not short-circuit the battery. There is danger of
explosion.
 Protect the battery against moisture and water.
 Store the battery only within a temperature range between
–20 °C and 50 °C. As an example, do not leave the battery
in the car in summer.
 Occasionally clean the venting slots of the battery using a
soft, clean and dry brush.
Safety Warnings for Battery
Chargers
Read all safety
warnings and all
instructions.
Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
Save these instructions.
Use the battery charger only when you
fully understand and can perform all
functions without limitation, or have
received appropriate instructions.
 Never allow children, persons with
physical, sensory or mental
F 016 L81 719 | (21.12.17)
limitations or a lack of experience
and/or knowledge and/or people
unfamiliar with these instructions to
use the machine. Local regulations
may restrict the age of the operator.
 Supervise children. This will
ensure that children do not play with
the charger.
 Only charge Bosch lithium-ion
batteries with a capacity of 1.5 Ah
or more (5 battery cells or more).
The battery voltage must match
the battery charging voltage of
the charger. Do not charge non-
rechargeable batteries. Otherwise
there is danger of fire and explosion.
Keep the battery charger away from rain or
moisture. Penetration of water in the battery
charger increases the risk of an electric shock.
 Only charge Bosch lithium-ion batteries. The battery
voltage must match the battery charging voltage of the
charger. Otherwise there is danger of fire and explosion.
 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 performed only by a qualified technician
and only using original spare parts. Damaged battery
chargers, cables 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
surroundings. The heating of the battery charger during
the charging process can pose a fire hazard.
 Do not cover the ventilation slots of the battery
charger. Otherwise, the battery charger can overheat and
no longer operate properly.
 It is recommended for increased electrical safety to use a
Residual Current Device (RCD) with a tripping current of
not more than 30 mA. Always check your RCD every time
you use it.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a
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 fitted in its place by an
authorised customer service agent. The replacement plug
should have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
