indicates Robert Bosch Tool
Corporation is voluntarily
participating in an industry
program to collect and recycle these batteries
at the end of their useful life, when taken out
of service in the United States or Canada. The
RBRC program provides a convenient
alterative to placing used Li-ion batteries into
the trash or the munici pal waste stream, which
may be illegal in your area.

WARNING
Battery Disposal
Battery leakage may occur under extreme
usage or temperature conditions. Avoid
contact with skin and eyes.
The battery
liquid is caustic and could cause chemical
burns to tissues. If liquid comes in contact with
skin, wash quickly with soap and water. If the
liquid contacts your eyes, flush them with water
for a minimum of 10 minutes and seek medical
attention.
Place charger on flat non-flammable
surfaces and away from flammable
materials when re-charging battery pack.
The charger and battery pack heat during
charging. Carpeting and other heat insulating
surfaces block proper air circulation which may
cause overheating of the charger and battery
pack. If smoke or melting of the case are
observed unplug the charger immediately and
do not use the battery pack or charger.
Use of an attachment not recom-
mended or sold by Bosch may result in a
risk of fire, electric shock or injury to
persons.
