The battery is equipped with a NTC temperature
control which allows charging only within a tem-
perature range of between 0 °C and 45 °C. A
long battery service life is achieved in this man-
ner.
A significantly reduced working period after
charging indicates that the battery is used and
must be replaced.
Observe the notes for disposal.

tional direction switch to the centre posi-
tion. Unintentional actuation of the On/Off
switch can lead to injuries.

switch 10 is not pressed. This makes quick, con-
venient and easy changing of the tool in the drill
chuck possible.
