Important Charging Notes

! WARNING

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 fast charge the battery. (This may happen if the battery pack is hot from heavy use). When the battery temperature returns to 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 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.

To power the unit

To Connect AC Power Plug

Plug the AC power cord of the unit into a standard AC power outlet/socket with AC 120V/60Hz, it will switch to AC once it is plugged in if it was running from a battery.

Note: The unit starts charging the battery automatically once the unit is running by AC power.

To Operate by the Battery
Bosch battery pack supplies DC power to the unit in all
modes when the unit is disconnected from AC power. 12V
outlet power and 4 power outlets are not available until AC
cord is plugged into AC.	A

To reduce risk of electric shock, only plug the unit into a Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected outlet when used in damp

locations. if a GFCI protected outlet is not available, use a portable receptacle with built-in GFCI protection. Test GFCI protected outlet according to instruction provided by GFCI manufacturer. If the GFCI protected outlet does not pass the GFCI testing, do not use that outlet. Only plug radio into a functional GFCI protected outlet.

Use of the Convenient

4-way Outlets

The combined output rating of the four ! WARNING AC outlets is 10A Max. To reduce the risk

of electric shock or fire hazard, do not overload the AC outlets.

With the Unit plugged into AC power, perform the following steps to use the convenient power outlets:

1.Lift up the protective cover to expose the AC power outlets.

2.Plug into the outlet the desired AC appliance or power tool.

3.Once you are done using the AC outlets on the unit, insure that the protective covers properly close.

Do not use where water is likely to enter ! WARNING unit. This device will not guard against

shock hazard from: 1. Defects or faults in the electrical supply to the interrupter. 2. Personal contact with both circuit conductors from the interrupter.

USE OF GFCI

(Ground fault circuit interruptor)

The GFCI helps protect you against hazardous electrical shock that may be caused if your body becomes a path through which electricity travels to ground. This could happen when you touch a power tool that is "live" through a faulty mechanism, dampness, worn insulation on the power cord, etc. A shock may happen even if you are only touching plumbing or another material that leads to ground. When using a GFCI device you may still feel a shock, but the GFCI is designed to cut off power quickly enough so that a normal healthy adult will not experience serious electrical injury.

! WARNING GFCI's will NOT protect against:

1.Line-to-line shocks (of the type received when touching metal inserted in both straight slots of a receptacle).

2.Current overloads or line-to-neutral short-circuit. THE FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER AT THE DISTRIBUTION BOX OR PANEL MUST PROVIDE SUCH OVER- CURRENT PROTECTION!
