2. General Safety Instructions

WARNING!

Read all safety information, instructions, illustrations and technical data provided with this power tool. Failure to observe the following instructions may cause electric shock, fire and/or severe injuries. Keep all safety information and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" used in this safety information refers to mains-operated power tools (with power cable) and to battery-powered power tools (without power cable).

• This device may be used by children aged 8 years and over, as well as by persons with impaired physical, sensory or mental capacities or a lack of experience and/or knowledge if they are supervised or have been instructed in the safe use of the device and have understood the dangers it poses. Children must not play with the device. Cleaning and user maintenance must not be carried out by children unless they are supervised.
• Only start the device when it is upright!
• Never bring hands and feet near the rotating brush tool.
• Do not run the rotating brushes over electrical wires. Remove them from the work area.
• Only pick up smaller and softer objects. Sharp-edged objects (e.g. broken glass), coarser stones (e.g. pebbles) and hot objects (e.g. embers) can damage the device.
• Only lift or carry the device with the motor switched off.
• Only operate the wet function when the fresh water tank is full. Operation without liquid leads to increased wear and damages the pump.
• Fill the fresh water tank only with water and original Wagner cleaning agent. Liquids containing acids and solvents, coating materials such as varnishes, oils and paints as well as essential oils and similar substances can damage the device.
• Fill the fresh water tank with max. 700ml .
• Never leave the device unattended while it is in operation.

• Remove the battery before cleaning or servicing the device.

3. Safety instructions for the charger and battery

Only use the tool with BOSCH POWER FOR ALL compatible PBA 18V batteries with at least 2.5 Ah and suitable chargers. The battery voltage must match the battery charging voltage of the charger. Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries. Otherwise there is a risk of fire and explosion.

Only use the charger indoors and keep it away from moisture. Water penetrating into a power tool increases the risk of an electric shock.

• Keep the charger clean. There is a risk of electric shock due to contamination.
• Before every use, check the charger, cable and plug. Do not use the charger if it is damaged. Do not open the charger yourself and only have it repaired by qualified specialist personnel using original spare parts. Damaged chargers, cables and plugs increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not operate the charger on easily combustible surfaces (e.g. paper, textiles, etc.) or in combustible environments. There is a risk of fire due to the heating of the charger during charging.
• Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
• The battery is delivered partially charged. To ensure full battery performance, fully charge the battery in the charger before first use.
• Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
• Only use the battery in the manufacturer's products. This is the only way to protect the battery from dangerous overloading.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
• Do not open the battery. There is a risk of a short circuit.
• Vapours may also escape if the battery is damaged or used improperly. Take in fresh air and consult a doctor if you have any symptoms. The vapours may irritate the respiratory tract.
• 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 damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
• If the battery is defective, liquid may leak out and wet adjacent objects. Check affected parts. Clean them or replace them if necessary.
• 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 sharp objects such as nails or screwdrivers or by external force. An internal short circuit may occur and the battery may burn, smoke, explode or overheat.

• Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.

• Protect the battery from heat, e.g. also from permanent sunlight, fire, dirt, water and moisture. There is a risk of explosion and short circuit.
• Operate and store the battery only at an ambient temperature between -20^ and +50^ . Do not leave the battery in the car in summer, for example. At temperatures < 0^ , performance may be restricted depending on the unit.
• Charge the battery only at ambient temperatures between 0^ and +35^ . Charging outside the temperature range can damage the battery or increase the risk of fire.
• Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements.

The batteries are suitable for road-transport by the user without further restrictions. When shipping by third parties (e.g.: by air transport or forwarding agency), special requirements on packaging and labelling must be observed. For preparation of the item being shipped, consulting an expert for hazardous material is required. Dispatch battery packs only when the housing is undamaged. Tape or mask off open contacts and pack up the battery in such a manner that it cannot move around in the packaging. Please also observe the possibility of more detailed national regulations.
