Charging process

Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage of the
u
power source must match the voltage specified on the rating
plate of the charger.
Ensure that the charging bay (1) and the battery con-
tacts 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 in-
serted into the charging bay (1).
The charging process is only possible when the temper-
ature of the battery is within the permitted charging tem-
perature 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 temper-
ature and voltage.
In this way, the battery is treated with care and remains per-
manently fully charged when it is stored in the battery charger.
A significantly reduced operating time after charging indicates
that the battery has deteriorated and must be replaced.
When the charger is used continuously, or for several consecut-
ive charge cycles without interruption, the charger may heat
up. This is, however, harmless and does not indicate that the
charger has a technical defect.
Charging times
The following table displays the approximate time required in
minutes in order to fully charge the battery, depending on the
battery type. The charging time depends on the battery type
and the temperature.

What the display elements mean
Flashing light battery charge indicator
The charging process is indicated by the flashing
of the battery charge indicator (2).
Continuous light green battery charge
indicator
A continuous light on the battery charge
indicator (2) signals that the battery is fully
charged or that the temperature of the battery is
not within the permitted charging temperature range (0–
45 °C), and can therefore not be charged. The battery is
charged as soon as the permitted charging temperature range
is reached.
When there is no battery inserted, the continuous light of the
battery charge indicator (2) signals that the mains plug is
plugged into the plug socket and that the charger is ready to be
used.
Troubleshooting
Battery is not being charged
Battery is not being charged and the battery charge
≈83
indicator (2) is lit up continuously.
Cause: The charger has identified an internal error.
≈115
Corrective measure: Ensure that all batteries are fully inser-
≈136
ted. Remove the mains plug and reinsert. If the error occurs
≈169
again, have the charger checked by an authorised after-sales
service centre for Bosch power tools.
≈228
≈219
Cause: Battery temperature is outside of the charging range
≈276
Corrective measure: Wait until the battery temperature is
≈335
back within the permitted charging temperature range (0–
45 °C).
Cause: Battery is not correctly inserted.
≈49
Corrective measure: Insert the battery into the charger cor-
rectly.
≈65
≈80
Cause: The battery contacts and charging contacts are dirty.
