Safety Warnings for Docking Station and Power
Supply
Only charge via the official Bosch docking station. Oth-
erwise there is danger of fire and explosion.
Check the docking station, power supply, cables and
plugs periodically. If damage is detected, do not use
the docking station or power supply. Never open the
docking station or power supply. Have repairs per-
formed only by a qualified Bosch technician and only
using original spare parts. A damaged docking station,
powersupply,cableorplugincreases the risk ofanelectric
shock.
Do not operate the docking station and power supply
on easily flammable surfaces (e. g., paper, textiles,
etc.) or surroundings. The heating of the docking station
and power supply during the charging process can pose a
fire hazard.
Supervise children at all times. This will ensure that chil-
dren do not play with the docking station, power supply or
the machine.
Children or persons that owing to their physical, senso-
ryormental limitations or totheirlack ofexperienceor
knowledge, are not capable of safely operating the
docking station orpower supply, may only use this
dockingstationand power supplyundersupervision or
after having been instructed by a responsible person.
Otherwise, there is dangerof operatingerrors and injuries.
The voltage indicated on the power supply must corre-
spond to the voltage of the power source.
The power supply should ideally be connected into a socket
that is protected by a circuit-breaker that is actuated by a
30 mA residual current. Check your Residual Current Device
(RCD) at regular intervals.
The supply cord must be inspected for signs of damage atreg-
ular intervals and may only be used if in perfect condition.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified per-
sons in order to avoid a hazard.
Only use or replace cables for the docking station and power
supply with Bosch approved parts.
Never touch the mains plug with wet hands.
Do not run over, crush or pull the cables. Protect the cables
from heat, oil and sharp edges.
The power supply/docking station is double insulated for
safety and requires no earth connection. The operating volt-
age is230 V AC,50 Hz (fornon-EU countries220 V,240 V as
applicable). Contact your Bosch Service Centre for details.
If in doubt contact a qualified electrician or the nearest Bosch
Service Centre.
The connection lead must be inspected for signs of visible
damage and ageing at regular intervals and may only be used
if in perfect condition.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a
BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA
approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be
cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an author-
ised customer service agent. The replacement plug should
have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains sock-
et elsewhere.
