Assembly
Power Supply of the Construction Site Radio
The power supply of the construction site radio can take place via the power-
supply plug 24 or via a lithium-ion battery 15.
Operation with Battery Pack
▶ Use only original Bosch Professional 10.8 V lithium-ion batteries. Using
other batteries can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard.
Note: The use of batteries not suitable for the construction site radio
can lead to malfunctions of or cause damage to the construction site radio.
Note: The battery pack is supplied partially charged. To ensure the full
capacity of the battery pack, completely charge the battery pack in the
battery charger before using it for the first time.
▶ Use only the battery chargers listed on the accessories page. Only these
battery chargers are matched to the lithium-ion batteries used in your
construction site radio. The Lithium-Ion battery can be charged at any time
without reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging procedure does
not damage the battery.
The battery is equipped with an NTC temperature control which allows charging
only within a temperature range of between 0 °C and 45 °C. A long battery
service life is achieved in this manner. Insert a battery into the battery
port 17 in such a manner that the connections of the battery face against
the connections in the charging compartment 17, and allow the battery to
engage in the battery port.
The battery charge-control indicator b appears on the display as soon as a
battery pack with sufficient voltage is inserted and the construction site
radio is not connected to the mains supply via the power-supply plug 24.
The battery charge-control indicator b indicates the current battery pack
status. When the battery charge-control indicator flashes, the battery pack
must be charged.
