16. Keep the battery charger clean by blowing compressed air on charger vents and wiping the charger housing with a damp cloth.
Contamination may result in electric shock or fire. 17. Replace battery pack if a substantial drop in operating time per charge is observed.
Battery pack may be nearing the end of its life.
Battery Care
When batteries are not in tool or charger, keep them away from metal objects. For example,
to protect terminals from shorting DO NOT place batteries in a tool box or pocket with nails, screws, keys, etc. Fire or injury may result.
DO NOT PUT BATTERIES INTO FIRE OR EXPOSE TO HIGH HEAT. They may explode.
Battery Disposal
Do not attempt to disas-semble the battery or remove any com ponent projecting from the battery terminals. Fire or injury may result. Prior to disposal, protect exposed terminals with heavy insulating tape to prevent shorting.
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 certified 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.
Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on Li-ion battery recycling and disposal bans/restrictions in your area, or return your batteries to a Skil/Bosch/Dremel Service Center for recycling. Robert Bosch Tool Corporation’s involvement in this program is part of our commitment to preserving our environment and conserving our natural resources.”
Extension Cords
AN EXTENSION CORD
SHOULD NOT BE USED UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. Use of improper extension cord could result in risk of fire and electrical shock. If an extension cord is used, make sure:
a.The pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size, and shape as those of plug on charger.
b.The extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.
c.The wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating of charger as specified below:
d.An extension cord is a temporary solution. Move the charger to a standard receptacle as soon as the job has been completed.

Important Charging Notes
1.The charger was designed to fast charge the battery only when the battery temperature is between 32˚F (0˚C) and 113˚F (45˚C). If the battery pack is too hot or too cold, the charger will not begin charging the battery. (This may happen if the battery pack is hot from heavy use). Once the battery temperature returns to its safe charging temperature, between 32°F (0°C) and 113°F (45°C), the charger will automatically begin charging.
2.A substantial drop in operating time per charge may mean that the battery pack is nearing the end of its life and should be replaced.
3.Remember to unplug charger during storage period.
4.If battery does not charge properly:
a.Check for voltage at outlet by plugging in some other electrical device.
b.Check to see if outlet is connected to a light switch which turns power “off” when lights are turned off.
c.Check battery pack terminals and charger connectors for dirt. Clean with cotton swab and alcohol if necessary.
d.If you still do not get proper charging, take or send tool, battery pack and charger to your local Bosch Service Center. See “Tools, Electric” in the Yellow Pages for names and addresses.
Note: Use of chargers or battery packs not sold by Bosch will void the warranty.

Charging Battery Pack
Plug charger cord into your standard power outlet.
With no battery pack inserted, the charger’s green indicator light will go ON. This indicates the charger is receiving power and the charger is ready for operation.
When you insert the battery pack into the charger. The charger’s green indicator light will begin to “BLINK”. This indicates that the
battery is receiving a fast charge.
Once approximately 80% battery capacity has been reached, the blinking of green light will slow down, indicating that fast charging is now complete. If battery remains in charger, the charging process is completed in Long Life charging mode.
The purpose of the rapidly “BLINKING” green light is to indicate that the battery pack is fastcharging. It does not indicate the exact point of full charge. The light will stop blinking when battery is fully charged.
Continuous green battery charger light indicates that the battery is fully charged. However, the battery pack may be used at any time,
even if the green light is still blinking.
A steady red indicator light means that the battery pack is outside the proper temperature ranges (too hot or too cold) so the charger will
not begin the charging process. Charging (Fast or long Life Charging Mode) is only possible
when the temperature range of the battery pack is between 32°F (0°C) and 113°F (45°C). When needed, the internal fan of the charger will turn on to aid the charging process and speed.
As soon as the battery pack reaches the correct temperature range, the battery charger will automatically switch to fast charging.
If the red indicator light is “BLINKING”, the battery pack cannot accept a charge. This may be due to the contacts on the
charger or battery pack is contaminated, the battery pack itself may be defective, or battery may be wrong type for this charger.
•Check to see if the battery is compatible with charger by checking charger Warning label.
•If applicable, insert another compatible battery pack into charger to verify charger is working properly.
•Clean the contacts of the charger or battery pack (e. g. by using a cotton swab and alcohol on battery and charger terminals or inserting and removing the battery several times) or replace the battery pack, as required.
When the battery pack is fully charged, unplug the charger (unless you're charging another battery pack) and slip the battery pack back into the tool.
