Safety Notes

en
Read all safety warnings and all
WARNING
instructions, including the infor-
mation on the bottom side of the radio charger.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
Save all safety warnings and instructions for
future reference.
The term "radio charger" used in the safety
notes, refers to mains-powered radio chargers
(with mains cable) and to battery-operated
radio chargers (without mains cable).
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
The plug of the radio charger must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) radio chargers. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce the risk of
electric shock.
Do not misuse the cord to carry the radio
charger, hang it up, or for pulling the plug
out of the outlet. Keep the cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Dam-
aged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
When operating the radio charger out-
doors, only use extension cords suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for out-
door use reduces the risk of electric shock.
When operating the radio charger in damp
environments is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD). The use of a residual
current device (RCD) reduces the risk of
electric shock.
Connect the radio charger to a mains supply
that is properly connected to earth. Socket
and extension cord must have an operative
protective conductor.
Completely unwind the mains cable when
operating the radio charger via mains sup-
ply. Otherwise the mains cable can heat up.
1 609 929 W38 | (26.7.10)
Take care that the mains plug can be pulled
at any time. The mains plug is the only possi-
bility to disconnect the radio charger from
the mains supply.
Protect the radio charger from rain and
moisture. The penetration of water into the
radio charger increases the risk of an electric
shock.
Do not charge the batteries of other manu-
facturers. The battery charger is suitable
only for charging Bosch lithium ion batteries
with the voltages listed in the technical data.
Otherwise there is danger of fire and explo-
sion.
Keep the radio charger clean. Contamina-
tion may result in danger of electric shock.
Check the radio charger, cord and plug each
time before using. Do not use the radio
charger when defects are detected. Do not
open the radio charger yourself and have it
repaired only by qualified personnel using
original spare parts. Damaged radio charg-
ers, cords and plugs increase the risk of elec-
tric shock.
Do not operate the radio charger on easily
inflammable surfaces (e.g. paper, textiles,
etc.) or in inflammable environments. Fire
hazard due to occurring heat build-up of the
radio charger during charging.
In case of damage and improper use of the
battery, vapours may be emitted. Provide
for fresh air and seek medical help in case
of complaints. The vapours can irritate the
respiratory system.
Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the radio charger.
Children or persons with mental or physical
limitations may only use the radio charger
under supervision or after having been in-
structed. A thorough introduction reduces
operating errors and injuries.
Do not open the battery. Danger of short-
circuiting.
Protect the battery against heat, e.g.,
against continuous intense sunlight,
fire, water, and moisture. Danger of
explosion.
