temperature, 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 and
charger connectors 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.
