pours may be emitted. Ventilate the area and seek
medical help in case of complaints. The vapours can irri-
tate the respiratory system.
 Do not place metal objects on the charger or between

Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a
BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA
approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be
cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an author-
ised customer service agent. The replacement plug should
have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains sock-
et elsewhere.
Intended Use
The charger is intended for recharging inductive Bosch Li-Ion
batteries (18 V). The inductive charging is performed by
means of a contactless charging process using magnetic in-
duction.

Charging Procedure
The charging process begins as soon as the mains plug of the
charger is plugged into the socket outlet and the inductive
battery 1 or the power tool with battery 1 (with base of the
battery) is placed onto the charging platform 5.
The charging process only begins when the battery capacity is
less than 85 – 90 %. This prolongs the life of the battery.
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.
