Safety Instructions
Safety instructions for cordless worklights
Read all the safety and general instructions. Failure to observe the safety
and general instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
Save all safety and general instructions for future reference.
- Handle the worklight with care. The worklight produces intense heat which in-creases the risk of fire and explosion.
- Do not work with the worklight in potentially explosive areas.
- Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after the worklight has been auto-matically switched off. The battery can be damaged. Ensure that the battery is charged and that the worklight has cooled before switching on the worklight again.
- Use only original Bosch accessories.
- The light source cannot be replaced. If the light source is defective, the entire cord-less worklight must be replaced.
- In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapours may be emitted. The battery can set alight or explode. Ensure the area is well ventilated and seek med-ical attention should you experience any adverse effects. The vapours may irritate the respiratory system.
- If used incorrectly or if the battery is damaged, flammable liquid may be ejected from the battery. Contact with this liquid should be avoided. If contact accident-ally occurs, rinse off with water. If the liquid comes into contact with your eyes, seek additional medical attention. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irrita-tion or burns.
- The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally. An internal short circuit may occur, causing the battery to burn, smoke, explode or overheat.
- When the battery is not in use, keep it away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that could make a connection from one ter-minal to another. A short circuit between the battery terminals may cause burns or a fire.
- Do not open the battery. There is a risk of short-circuiting.
- Only use the battery with products from the manufacturer. This is the only way in which you can protect the battery against dangerous overload.
- Protect the battery against heat, e.g. against continuous intense sunlight, fire, dirt, water and moisture. There is a risk of explosion and short-circuiting.
- Only charge the batteries using chargers recommended by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery may pose a fire risk when used with a different battery.
- Remove the batteries from the worklight before carrying out any work on the worklight (e.g. assembly, maintenance, etc.) as well as when transporting and storing the worklight. There is risk of injury from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
- Do not direct the light beam at persons or animals and do not stare into the light beam yourself (even from a distance).
- Do not use the worklight in road traffic. The worklight is not permitted for illumina-tion in road traffic.
- Do not cover the lamp head while the cordless worklight is operating. The lamp head warms up during operation and can cause burns if this heat accumulates.
- Do not allow children to use the cordless worklight. It is intended for professional use. Children can unintentionally blind themselves or other persons.

Assembly
Battery Charging (Accessory
- Use only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only these chargers are matched to the lithium-ion battery of cordless worklight.
Note: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full battery
capacity, fully charge the battery in the charger before using your tool for
the first time.
The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without reducing its
service life. Inter-rupting the charging process does not damage the battery.
The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharge by the “Electronic Cell Pro-tection (ECP)”. A protective circuit switches the cordless worklight off when the battery is drained.
- Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after the worklight has been auto-matically switched off. The battery can be damaged. Ensure that the battery is charged and that the worklight has cooled before switching on the worklight again.
To remove the battery (1), press the release button (2) and pull the battery
out of the cordless worklight. Do not use force to do this.
Follow the instructions on correct disposal.
Battery charge indicator
The green LEDs on the battery charge indicator indicate the state of charge of
the bat-tery. For reasons of safety, it is only possible to query the state of
charge when the cord-less worklight is switched off.
Press the button for the battery charge indicator or to show the state of
charge. This is also possible when the battery is removed.
If no LED lights up after pressing the button for the battery charge
indicator, then the battery is defective and must be replaced.
