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

Functional Description and Specifications.
Do not disassemble charger or operate the
charger if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped or otherwise damaged in any
way. Replace damaged cord or plugs
immediately.
Incorrect reassembly or damage
may result in electric shock or fire.
Do not recharge battery in damp or wet
environment. Do not expose charger to rain
or snow. If battery case is cracked or
otherwise damaged, do not insert into

See Functional Description and
Specifications. Other types of batteries may
burst causing personal injury and damage.
Charge battery pack in temperatures above
+32 degrees F (0 degrees C) and below
+113 degrees F (45 degrees C). Store tool
and battery pack in locations where
temperatures will not exceed 120 degrees F
(49 degrees C).
This is important to prevent
serious damage to the battery cells.
Battery leakage may occur under extreme
usage or temperature conditions. Avoid
contact with skin and eyes.
The battery
liquid is caustic and could cause chemical
burns to tissues. If liquid comes in contact with
skin, wash quickly with soap and water. If the

water for a minimum of 10 minutes and seek
medical attention.
Place charger on flat non-flammable
surfaces and away from flammable
materials when re-charging battery pack.
The charger and battery pack heat during
charging. Carpeting and other heat insulating

observed unplug the charger immediately and
do not use the battery pack or charger.
Use of an attachment not recom-
mended or sold by Bosch will result in a
risk of fire, electric shock or injury to
