Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Bosch 18V battery simply slides into the designated battery slot on any compatible Bosch 18V cordless tool until it clicks into place. Ensure it is securely locked before operating the tool.
Compatibility: This battery is exclusively compatible with all tools within the Bosch "Power4All" 18V Lithium-Ion cordless system. It will also work with corresponding Bosch 18V chargers.
Care:
- Charging: Always use an official Bosch 18V charger designed for Lithium-Ion batteries. Avoid charging in extreme temperatures (below 0°C/32°F or above 45°C/113°F).
- Storage: Store the battery in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and metal objects that could cause a short circuit. For long-term storage, it's recommended to charge the battery to around 60-80%.
- Cleaning: Wipe the battery contacts periodically with a dry, soft cloth to ensure good electrical connection. Never use solvents or abrasive cleaners.
- Avoid Deep Discharge: Do not completely drain the battery. Remove it from the tool once its power noticeably decreases and recharge it.
