INITIAL OPERATION
5.1 BATTERY CHARGER
The mains supply must comply with the specifi cations
on the rating plate (Fig. 5).
The battery charger is suitable only for charging
batteries from the Bosch range of tools (NiCd/
NiMH) with the voltage of 14.4 V.
5.2 FIRST BATTERY CHARGE
Please observe the following points in order
to
ensure
optimum
battery
life:
– Connect battery charger (6/2) to mains supply.
– Insert battery (6/1) into battery charger slot.
For the fi rst charge, leave the battery in the char-
ger for at least fi ve hours, regardless of the bat-
tery indicator
(the charging time for all subsequent
charges is about 60 minutes).
For all subsequent charges, only recharge the bat-
tery when the LED indicator on the tool indicates
battery empty or the battery charge indicator show
at min. LED 5 or less (see Chapter 6.3.1).
Maximum battery output will be reached after four or
fi ve charging/discharging cycles.
5.3 CHARGING THE BATTERY
The charging process and error functions are indica-
ted by a LED (6/3) (see chapter 4.4).
The charging time is approximately 60–75
minutes.
The maximum charging current fl ows when the tem-
perature of the battery is between 15–40°C. Avoid
charging the battery at temperatures below 0°C and
above 40°C.
If the battery is not to be used for a longer
period (several days), it should be remo-
ved from the tool and charged/stored in the batte-
ry charger.
