Starting Operation
 Observe the mains voltage! The voltage of the power
supply must correspond with the data given on the name-
plate of the battery charger. Battery chargers marked with
230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
Charging Procedure
The charging procedure starts as soon as the mains plug of
the battery charger is plugged into the socket outlet and the
battery 1 is inserted into the charging compartment 2.
Due to the intelligent charging method, the charging condi-
tion of the battery is automatically detected and the battery is
charged with the optimum charging current, depending on
battery temperature and voltage.
This gives longer life to the battery and always leaves it fully
charged when kept in the charger for storage.
Meaning of the Indication Elements
Flashing Green Battery Charge Indicator 4
The rapid-charging procedure is signalled
by a flashing green battery charge indica-
tor 4.
Note: The rapid-charging procedure is only possible when the
battery temperature is within the allowable charging temper-
ature range, see section "Technical Data".
Continuous Lighting of the Green Battery Charge
Indicator 4
Continuous lighting of the green battery
charge indicator 4 indicates that the bat-
tery is fully charged.
Afterwards, the battery can be removed for immediate use.
When the battery is not inserted, continuous lighting of the
battery charge indicator 4 indicates that the mains plug is in-
serted in the socket and that the battery charger is ready for
operation.

Working Advice
With continuous or several repetitive charging cycles without
interruption, the charger can warm up. This is not meaningful
and does not indicate a technical defect of the battery charg-
er.
A significantly reduced working period after charging indi-
cates that the battery is used and must be replaced.
Maintenance and Service
If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to
be done by Bosch or an authorized Bosch service agent in or-
der to avoid a safety hazard.
