seek medical help in case of complaints. The vapours can
irritate the respiratory system.
Only use the battery with products from the manufac-
u
turer. This is the only way in which you can protect the
battery against dangerous overload.
The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such
u
as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally.
An internal short circuit may occur, causing the battery to
burn, smoke, explode or overheat.
Do not short-circuit the battery. There is a risk of explo-
u
sion.
Occasionally clean the venting slots of the battery using a
u
soft, clean and dry brush.
Charge the machine only with the supplied battery
u
charger.
Safety Warnings for Battery
Chargers
Read all safety warnings and all instruc-
tions. Failure to follow the safety warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Save all safety warnings and instructions for future ref-
erence.
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
u
physical, sensory or mental limita-
tions or a lack of experience and/or
knowledge and/or people unfamiliar
with these instructions to use the
battery charger. Local regulations
may restrict the age of the operator.
Supervise children at all times.
u
This will ensure that children do not
play with the battery charger.
Charge only Bosch lithium-ion bat-
u
teries with a capacity above 1.5 Ah
(3 battery cells or more). The battery
voltage must match the battery char-
ging voltage of the charger. Do not
charge non-rechargeable batteries.
Otherwise there is a danger of fire
and explosion.
F 016 L94 184 | (10.12.2020)
Keep the battery charger away from rain or
moisture. Penetration of water in the battery
charger increases the risk of an electric shock.
Keep the charger clean. Dirt poses a risk of electric
u
shock.
Always check the charger, cable and plug before use.
u
Stop using the charger if you discover any damage. Do
not open the charger yourself, and have it repaired
only by a qualified specialist using only original re-
placement parts. Damaged chargers, cables and plugs
increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not operate the charger on an easily ignited sur-
u
face (e.g. paper, textiles, etc.) or in a flammable envir-
onment. There is a risk of fire due to the charger heating
up during operation.
Do not cover the ventilation slots of the battery char-
u
ger. Otherwise, the battery charger can overheat and no
longer operate properly.
For increased electrical safety, we recommend using a re-
u
sidual current device with a max. tripping current of 30
mA. Before using, always check your residual current
device.

Transport and Storage

Switch the machine off and ensure
u
that the extendable handle is locked
before transporting.
Care should be taken when
lifting and moving the ma-
chine, particularly when the
water tank is full. Check if the extend-
able handle is securely locked. Use the
extendable handle and the lower front
handle to lift the machine. Ensure a
healthy back posture when lifting the
machine. Keep your back straight and
bend the knees.
Use caution when moving the ma-
u
chine over slopes or steps. The ma-
chine is heavy when filled with wa-
ter.
Before storing, drain the water from
u
the tank and the pump system.
