Read all the safety and general instructions. Failure to observe the safety and general instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Please observe the illustrations at the beginning of this operating manual.

Save all safety warnings and instructions for future reference.

This garment is not intended for use by children or persons with physical, sensory or mental limitations or a lack of experience or knowledge.

This garment can be used by children aged 8 or older and by persons who have physical, sensory or mental limitations or a lack of experience or knowledge if a person responsible for their safety supervises them or has instructed them in the safe operation of the garment and they understand the associated dangers. Otherwise, there is a risk of operating errors and injuries.

▶ Supervise children. This will ensure that children do not play with the garment.

▶ Children must not be allowed to clean and perform maintenance on the garment without supervision.

Safety Warnings for Heated Garments

If, whilst using the garment, you suffer the symptoms listed below, take the garment off immediately and

10 | English

consult a doctor. Otherwise, there is a risk of heat exhaustion or heatstroke.

- Early signs:

Any discomfort; excessive sweating; neck pain; nausea; dizziness or drowsiness

– Symptoms of heat exhaustion/heatstroke:

Nausea and vomiting; throbbing headache; dizziness and drowsiness; absence of perspiration; red, hot and dry skin; muscle weakness or seizures; rapid heartbeat; quick, shallow breathing; behavioural changes such as confusion, disorientation or staggering; unconsciousness

▶ Do not use the garment if you suffer from conditions that make you susceptible to overheating, or if your body contains a medical implant. Ask your doctor and/or the manufacturer of the medical implant whether you can use this heated garment.

▶ Switch off the heating function of the garment when in a warm environment. There is a danger of heatstroke.

▶ Do not use the garment to keep infants or helpless, sleeping or unconscious persons or persons with circulatory disorders warm. The wearer must be able to immediately sense the temperature of the garment and his/her own well-being in order to prevent overheating.

The garment is not intended for use in hospitals.

When the battery is inserted, protect the garment from heat and, for example, from fire, water, moisture and long periods of direct sunlight. There is a risk of explosion.

▶ Do not insert pins or other sharp objects into the garment. A damaged heating element or a damaged connector plug cable causes the garment to malfunction and increases the risk of electric shock or fire.

▶ Do not misuse the connector plug cable for anything other than its intended purpose, e.g. do not use it for carrying or pulling the garment or for unplugging the battery. Keep the cable away from oil, sharp objects and moving components. Do not bend the cable. A damaged heating element or a damaged connector plug cable causes the garment to malfunction and increases the risk of electric shock or fire.

The garment is not waterproof. Intrusion of water increases the risk of electric shock. If the garment does get wet, immediately unplug the battery and remove it from the battery adapter.

▶ Do not fold a garment when heated, and do not store any objects on top of it. A damaged heating element or a damaged connector plug cable causes the garment to malfunction and increases the risk of electric shock or fire.

▶ Carefully observe the care and cleaning instructions of the garment. Insufficient care poses a danger of electric shock or fire.

Leave the garment to cool down completely before you store it.

▶ Check for signs of wear or damage on the garment at regular intervals. If such signs are present or if the gar-

ment has been used improperly, do not use the garment again and return it to the retailer.

▶ Only have your garment repaired by qualified personnel using only original spare parts. This will ensure that the safety of the garment is maintained.

Safety warnings for dealing with batteries

▶ Do not open the battery. There is a risk of short-circuiting.
In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapours may be emitted. The battery can set alight or explode. Ensure the area is well ventilated and seek medical attention should you experience any adverse effects. The vapours may irritate the respiratory system.
If used incorrectly or if the battery is damaged, flammable liquid may be ejected from the battery. Contact with this liquid should be avoided. If contact accidentally occurs, rinse off with water. If the liquid comes into contact with your eyes, seek additional medical attention. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally. An internal short circuit may occur, causing the battery to burn, smoke, explode or overheat.
When the battery is not in use, keep it away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that could make a connection from one terminal to another. A short circuit between the battery terminals may cause burns or a fire.

Protect the battery against heat, e.g. against continuous intense sunlight, fire, water and moisture. There is a risk of explosion.

▶ Use the battery only in conjunction with your Bosch product. This measure alone protects the battery against dangerous overload.
▶ 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.
▶ Observe the notes for disposal of the battery.
▶ CAUTION! Use only those batteries recommended in "Technical data". The use of other batteries may cause risk of explosion.
▶ Do not insert the battery into the battery adapter if the release buttons are broken or faulty. The battery may fall out during operation.

Preparing the Garment

Charging the Battery

The battery adapter does not serve as a charger. Do not use any in-car USB charging cables to charge the battery. Using in-car USB charging cables can damage the battery and/or the battery adapter.

Note: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full battery capacity, fully charge the battery in the charger before using your power tool for the first time.

The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging process does not damage the battery.

The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharge by the "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)". When the battery is discharged, the power tool is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The application tool no longer rotates.

▶ Do not continue to press the on/off switch after the heating elements have been automatically switched off. This can damage the battery.

Inserting and Removing the Battery (see figures A1-A2)

▶ Do not use force to insert the battery. The battery is designed in such a way that it can only be inserted into the battery adapter when it is in the right position.

To insert the battery (7), push it all the way into the battery adapter (2).

To remove the battery (7), press the release buttons (8) on the battery and pull it out of the battery adapter (2).

Connecting Heating Elements (see figures B1-B2)

Plug the connector plug (4) into the socket (9) on the battery adapter. The on/off switch (1) lights up briefly when the battery is charged.
