1. The charger was designed to fast charge
the battery only when the battery temperature
is between 32˚F (0˚C) and 113˚F (45˚C). If the
battery pack is too hot or too cold, the charger
will not begin charging the battery. (This may
happen if the battery pack is hot from heavy
use). Once the battery temperature returns to
its safe charging temperature, between 32°F
(0°C) and 113°F (45°C), the charger will
automatically begin charging.
2. A substantial drop in operating time per
charge may mean that the battery pack is
nearing the end of its life and should be
replaced.
3. Remember to unplug charger during storage
period.
4. If battery does not charge properly:
a. Check for voltage at outlet by plugging in
some other electrical device.
b. Check to see if outlet is connected to a
light switch which turns power “off” when lights
are turned off.
c. Check battery pack terminals and
charger connectors for dirt. Clean with cotton
swab and alcohol if necessary.
d. If you still do not get proper charging,
take or send tool, battery pack and charger to
your local Bosch Service Center. See “Tools,
Electric” in the Yellow Pages for names and
addresses.
Note:
Use of chargers or battery packs not
sold by Bosch will void the warranty.

“The EPA certified RBRC Battery
Recycling Seal on the lithium-ion
(Li-ion) battery 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.
Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information
on Li-ion battery recycling and disposal
bans/restrictions in your area, or return your
batteries to a Skil/Bosch/Dremel Service Center
for recycling. Robert Bosch Tool Corporation’s
involvement in this program is part of our
commitment to preserving our environment and
conserving our natural resources.”
