Failure to fol- low the warnings and instruc- tions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save these instructions. Use the battery charger only when you fully understand and can perform all functions without limitation, or have received appropriate instructions. Safety Notes This charger is not intended for use by children and persons with phy- sical, sensory or mental limitations or a lack of experience or know- ledge. This charger can be used by children aged 8 and above and by persons who have physical, senso- ry or mental limitations or a lack of experience or knowledge if a per- son responsible for their safety su- pervises them or has instructed them in the safe operation of the charger and they understand the associated dangers. Otherwise, there is a danger of operating errors and injuries. Supervise children during use, cleaning and maintenance. This will ensure that children do not play with the charger. Only charge Bosch lithium-ion batteries with a capacity of 1.3 Ah or more (3 battery cells or more). The battery voltage must match the battery charging voltage of the charger. Do not charge non-re- chargeable batteries. Otherwise there is danger of fire and explosion. 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 battery charger clean. Contamination can lead to danger of an electric shock. Before each use, check the battery charger, cable and plug. If damage is detected, do not use the battery charger. Never open the battery charger yourself. Have repairs performed only by a qualified technician and only using original spare parts. Damaged battery chargers, cables and plugs increase the risk of an electric shock. Do not operate the battery charger on easily inflamma- ble surfaces (e. g., paper, textiles, etc.) or surround- ings. The heating of the battery charger during the charg- ing process can pose a fire hazard. In case of damage and improper use of the battery, va- pours may be emitted. Ventilate the area and seek medical help in case of complaints. The vapours can irri- tate the respiratory system.

Otherwise, the battery charger can overheat and no longer operate properly. Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362). If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an author- ised customer service agent. The replacement plug should have the same fuse rating as the original plug. The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains sock- et elsewhere.

• The actual charging current depends on the USB device connected. The values given are valid for a nominal voltage [U] of 230 V. For different voltages and models for specific countries, these values can vary. OBJ_BUCH-3011-001.book Page 8 Monday, November 7, 2016 8:26 AMEnglish | 9 Bosch Power Tools 1 609 92A 3FF | (7.11.16) Operation Starting Operation Observe the mains voltage! The voltage of the power supply must correspond with the data given on the name- plate of the battery charger. Battery chargers marked with 230 V can also be operated with 220 V. Charging Procedure The charging process begins as soon as the mains connector for the charger is inserted into the mains socket and the bat- tery 1 is inserted into the charging slot 2/3 and/or the charg- ing cable is inserted into the USB port 6. The battery 1 inserted into the charging slot 2/3 first is also charged first. Then the battery 1 inserted last is charged. If an external USB device is connected, this is always charged regardless of whether a battery 1 is already being charged. Due to the intelligent charging method, the charging condi- tion of the battery is automatically detected and the battery is charged with the optimum charging current, depending on battery temperature and voltage. This gives longer life to the battery and always leaves it fully charged when kept in the charger for storage. Meaning of the Indication Elements Flashing Green Battery Charge Indicator 4/7 The rapid-charging procedure is signalled by a flashing green battery charge indicator 4/7. The battery can be removed at any time and used. Note: The charging procedure is only possible when the bat- tery temperature is within the allowable charging tempera- ture range, see “Technical Data” section. Once approx. 80 % of the battery capacity has been reached, the flashing of the green battery charge indicator slows down. The rapid-charg- ing process is now completed. If the battery re- mains in the charger, the charging process will be completed in the Long Life charging mode. Continuous Lighting of the Green Battery Charge Indicator 4/7 Continuous lighting of the green battery charge indicator 4/7 indicates that the battery is fully charged. Afterwards, the battery can be removed for immediate use. When the battery is not inserted, continuous lighting of the battery charge indicator 4/7 indicates that the mains plug is inserted in the socket and that the battery charger is ready for operation. Continuous Lighting of the Red Battery Charge Indicator 5/8 The continuous light of the red battery charge indicator 5/8 shows that the temperature of the battery is outside of the permitted charge- temperature range, see section “Technical Da- ta”. The charging process begins as soon as the permitted temperature range has been reached. Flashing Red Battery Charge Indicator 5/8 A flashing red battery charge indicator 5/8 in- dicates a different malfunction of the charging procedure, see section “Troubleshooting – Causes and Corrective Measures”. Troubleshooting – Causes and Corrective Measures Working Advice With continuous or several repetitive charging cycles without interruption, the charger can warm up. This is not meaningful and does not indicate a technical defect of the battery charg- er. A significantly reduced working period after charging indi- cates that the battery is used and must be replaced. 80 % Cause Corrective Measure Flashing red battery charge indicator 5/8 No charging procedure possible Battery not (properly) insert-
