Max. signal range
A) Measured at 20–25 °C with rechargeable battery GBA 18V
8.0Ah.
B) Measured with GBA 18V 2.0Ah and GBA 18V 12.0Ah.
C) The mobile terminal devices must be compatible with
Bluetooth® Low Energy devices (version 4.1) and support the
Generic Access Profile (GAP).
D) The signal range may vary greatly depending on external condi-
tions, including the receiving device used. The Bluetooth® range
may be significantly weaker inside closed rooms and through
metallic barriers (e.g. walls, shelving units, cases, etc.).
Values can vary depending upon the product and are subject to ap-
plication and environmental conditions. For further information

Noise/vibration information
Noise emission values determined according
to EN 62841-2-2.
Typically, the A-weighted noise level of the power tool is:
Sound pressure level 104 dB(A); sound power
level 112 dB(A). Uncertainty K = 3 dB.
Wear hearing protection!
Vibration total values a
(triax vector sum) and uncertainty K

determined according to EN 62841-2-2:

The vibration level and noise emission value given in these
instructions have been measured in accordance with a
standardised measuring procedure and may be used to com-
pare power tools. They may also be used for a preliminary
estimation of vibration and noise emissions.
The stated vibration level and noise emission value repres-
ent the main applications of the power tool. However, if the
power tool is used for other applications, with different ac-
cessories or is poorly maintained, the vibration level and
noise emission value may differ. This may significantly in-
crease the vibration and noise emissions over the total work-
ing period.
To estimate vibration and noise emissions accurately, the
times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but
not actually being used should also be taken into account.
This may significantly reduce vibration and noise emissions
over the total working period.
Implement additional safety measures to protect the oper-
ator from the effects of vibration, such as servicing the
power tool and accessories, keeping their hands warm, and
organising workflows correctly.
Rechargeable battery
Bosch sells some cordless power tools without a re-
chargeable battery. You can tell whether a rechargeable bat-
tery is included with the power tool by looking at the pack-
aging.

Note: Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries are supplied par-
tially charged according to international transport regula-
tions. To ensure full rechargeable battery capacity, fully
charge the rechargeable battery before using your tool for
the first time.
Inserting the Battery
Push the charged battery into the battery holder until it
clicks into place.
Removing the Battery
To remove the rechargeable battery, press the battery re-
lease button and pull the battery out. Do not use force to do
this.
The rechargeable battery has two locking levels to prevent
the battery from falling out if the battery release button is
pressed unintentionally. The rechargeable battery is held in
place by a spring when fitted in the power tool.
Battery charge indicator
The green LEDs on the battery charge indicator indicate the
2
state of charge of the battery. For safety reasons, it is only
possible to check the state of charge when the power tool is
not in operation.
Press the button for the battery charge indicator or
show the state of charge. This is also possible when the bat-
tery is removed.
If no LED lights up after pressing the button for the battery
charge indicator, then the battery is defective and must be
replaced.
