IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read all safety warnings and all instructions in this manual and in the battery charger manual. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions

may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Safety Symbols

The definitions below describe the level of severity for each signal word. Please read the

manual and pay attention to these symbols.

This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death.

DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.

Ke ep work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

Do not allow children to use the cordless area light. It is intended for professional use. Children can unintentionally blind

themselves or other persons.

Do not operate area lights in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Area

lights create heat and sparks, which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Do not expose area lights to rain or wet conditions. Water entering an area light

will increase the risk of electric shock or fire.

After the automatic shut-off of the cordless area light, do not continue to press the On/Off button. The battery

could become damaged.

Do not direct the light beam at persons or animals and do not stare into the light beam yourself (not even from a distance).

Do not turn on/off the light without line of sight to the light. Operator working near

the light may be startled by the sudden bright light (turn light on) or left out in the dark (turn light off). Turning light on/off when there is operator near the light can

cause personal injury or property damage.

Do not cover the lamp head while operating the cordless area light. The

lamp head heats up during operation and can cause burns or fire when the heat accumulates.

Do not use the cordless area light in road traffic. The cordless area light is not

approved for illumination in road traffic.

Remove the battery from the cordless area light before any work on the cordless area light itself (e.g. assembling, maintenance, cleaning, etc.), as well as when transporting and storing.

Do not position the lighted area light head on or near flammable or combustible materials. The lens gets hot

during use.

Do not touch the lens while the area light is in operation. Touchi ng h ot l ens

increases the risk of personal injury.

Do not splash the lens of lighted area light with liquids. Hot lens may shatter

when cooler liquids are contacted. The area light is ruggedly constructed. It

should, however, be handled with care.

Use only original Bosch accessories. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,

cl ean and free from oil and gre ase.

Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

Recharge only with Bosch chargers listed in the battery/charger list. A charger that

is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.

Use the battery only in conjunction with your Bosch product. This measure alone

protects the battery against dangerous overload.

Use only Bosch BAT612 or the batteries listed in the battery/charger list. When

using other batteries, e. g. imitations, reconditioned batteries or other brands, there is danger of injury as well as property damage through exploding batteries.

When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another.

Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.

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.

Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the

battery may cause irritation or burns.

Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam a g e d or modiﬁed. Dam a g e d or

mod i ﬁ e d bat t e r ies ma y exhib i t unpredictable behaviour resulting in ﬁre, explosion or risk of injury.

Do not expose a battery pack or tool to ﬁre or excessive temperature. Exposure

to ﬁre or temperature above 265 °F may cause explosion.

Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range speciﬁed in the instructions. Charging improperly

or at temperatures outside the speciﬁed range may damage the ba ttery and increase the risk of ﬁre.

Check the charge level at least once a month, especially if used for emergency purposes. If the light seems dimmer,

recharge the battery pack.

 User-Maintenance Instruction

All repairs, electrical or

me chanic al, shoul d b e att e m p ted o n l y by t rained r e pairmen. Contact the nearest Bosch Factory Service Center, Authorized Service Station or other competent repair service.

Never service damaged battery packs.

Service of battery packs should only be pe rformed by the manu factur er or authorized service providers.
