Rechargeable battery
Bosch sells some cordless heat guns without a rechargeable
battery. You can tell whether a rechargeable battery is in-
cluded with the heat gun by looking at the packaging.
Charging the battery
Use only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only
u
these chargers are matched to the lithium-ion battery of
your heat gun.
Note: Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries are supplied par-
tially charged according to international transport regula-
tions. To ensure full rechargeable battery capacity, fully
charge the rechargeable battery before using your tool for
the first time.
Inserting the Battery
Do not use force to insert the rechargeable battery.
u
The rechargeable battery is designed so that it can only
be inserted into the heat gun in the right position.
Push the charged battery into the battery holder until it
clicks into place.
The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharge
by "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)". A protective circuit
switches the heat gun off when the rechargeable battery is
drained.
Removing the Battery
To remove the rechargeable battery, press the battery re-
lease button and pull the battery out. Do not use force to do
this.

Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the
Battery
Protect the battery against moisture and water.
Only store the battery within a temperature range of −20 to
50 °C. Do not leave the battery in your car in the summer, for
example.
Occasionally clean the ventilation slots on the battery using a
soft brush that is clean and dry.
A significantly reduced operating time after charging indic-
ates that the battery has deteriorated and must be replaced.
Follow the instructions on correct disposal.
Operation
Starting operation

u
cessories or storing the heat gun. This safety measure
prevents the heat gun from being started accidentally.
