Safety Notes

Safety Warnings for Cordless Worklights

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. 

Failure to follow the 

warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or seri-

ous injury.



Please read and observe all safety warnings and instructions enclosed with 

the battery or the power tool, with which the battery was provided.



Handle the cordless worklight with care. 

The cordless worklight generates 

intense heat, which leads to increased danger of fire and explosion.



Do not work with the cordless worklight in hazardous areas.



After the automatic shut-off of the cordless worklight, do not continue to 

press the On/Off button. 

The battery could become damaged.



Do not direct the light beam at persons or animals and do not stare into the 

light beam yourself (not even from a distance).



Use only original Bosch accessories.



Do not cover off the lamp head while operating the cordless worklight. 

The 

lamp head heats up during operation and can cause burns when the heat accumu-

lates.



Do not use the cordless worklight in road traffic. 

The cordless worklight is not 

approved for illumination in road traffic.



Before any work on the cordless worklight itself (e.g. assembling, mainte-

nance, etc.), as well as when transporting and storing, remove the battery 

from the cordless worklight.



Do not allow children to use the cordless worklight. 

It is intended for profes-

sional use. Children can unintentionally blind themselves or other persons.



Do not open the battery. 

Danger of short-circuiting.

Protect the battery against heat, e.g., against continuous intense sun-

light, fire, water, and moisture. 

Danger of explosion.



When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like 

paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can 

make a connection from one terminal to another. 

Shorting the battery terminals 

together may cause burns or a fire.



Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid con-

tact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, 

additionally seek medical help. 

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irrita-

tions or burns.



In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapours may be emitted. 

Ventilate the area and seek medical help in case of complaints. 

The vapours 

can irritate the respiratory system.



Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. 

A charger that 

is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with an-

other battery pack.



Use the battery only in conjunction with your Bosch product. 

This measure 

alone protects the battery against dangerous overload.



Use only original Bosch batteries with the voltage listed on the nameplate of 

your cordless worklight. 

When using other batteries, e. g. imitations, recondi-

tioned batteries or other brands, there is danger of injury as well as property dam-

age through exploding batteries.

Battery Charging (Accessory) (see figure A)



Use only the battery chargers listed on the accessories page. 

Only these bat-

tery chargers are matched to the lithium ion battery of your cordless worklight.

Note: 

The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full capacity of the battery, 

completely charge the battery in the battery charger before using your power tool for 

the first time.

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 lithium ion battery is protected against deep discharging by the “Electronic Cell 

Protection (ECP)”. When the battery is empty, the cordless worklight is switched off 

by means of a protective circuit.



Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after the cordless worklight has 

been automatically switched off. 

The battery can be damaged.

To remove the battery 

3

, press the battery unlocking button 

4

 and pull the battery out 

of the cordless worklight toward the rear. 

Do not exert any force.

The battery is equipped with a 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.

Observe the notes for disposal.

of the item being shipped, consulting an expert for hazardous material is required.

Dispatch batteries only when the housing is undamaged. Tape or mask off open con-

tacts and pack up the battery in such a manner that it cannot move around in the pack-

aging.

Please also observe possibly more detailed national regulations.
