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.
