Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the
Battery
 Before any work on the garden product itself (e. g.
maintenance, tool change, etc.) as well as during trans-
port and storage, remove the battery from the garden
product. There is danger of injury when unintentionally ac-
tuating the On/Off switch.
 Use only Bosch battery packs intended specifically for
the machine. Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
 Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting
battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into machines
that have the switch on can cause accidents.
 Do not open the battery. Danger of short-circuiting.
Protect the battery against heat, e. g., against
continuous intense sunlight, fire, water, and
moisture. Danger of explosion.
 When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from oth-
er 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.
 Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally oc-
curs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addition-
ally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery
may cause irritations or burns.
 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.
 Recharge only with the charger specified by the manu-
facturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery
pack may create a risk of fire when used with another bat-
tery pack.
 If the battery becomes defective, liquid can escape and
come into contact with adjacent components. Check
any parts concerned. Clean such parts or replace them, if
required.
 Use the battery only in conjunction with your Bosch
product. This measure alone protects the battery against
dangerous overload.
 Use only original Bosch batteries with the voltage list-
ed on the nameplate of your product. When using other
batteries, e. g. imitations, reconditioned batteries or other
brands, there is danger of injury as well as property dam-
age through exploding batteries.
 Protect the battery against moisture and water.
 Store the battery only within a temperature range between
0 °C and 50 °C. As an example, do not leave the battery in
the car in summer.
 Occasionally clean the venting slots of the battery using a
soft, clean and dry brush.

Safety Warnings for Battery Chargers
Keep the battery charger away from rain or
moisture. Penetration of water in the battery
charger increases the risk of an electric shock.
 Only charge Bosch lithium ion batteries or lithium ion
batteries installed in Bosch products. The battery volt-
age must match the battery charging voltage of the
charger. Otherwise there is danger of fire and explosion.
 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.
 Supervise children. This will ensure that children do not
play with the charger.
 Children or persons that owing to their physical, senso-
ry or mental limitations or to their lack of experience or
knowledge, are not capable of securely operating the
charger, may only use this charger under supervision
or after having been instructed by a responsible per-
son. Otherwise, there is danger of operating errors and in-
juries.
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.
