DANGER! Take steps to ensure that
you do not hit upon any service lines
(electricity, gas, water) when work-
ing with electrical appliances. Check, if
need be with a service line detector, before
you start to cut or bore into a surface.
Original ancillaries /
accessories
Use only the ancillaries and accessories
that are detailed in the operating
instructions. The use of ancillaries and ac-
cessories other than those recommended in the
operating instructions could lead to an increased
risk of personal injury for you.
Start-up
Charging the battery pack
CAUTION! Always ensure the plug is removed
from the mains socket before inserting a battery pack
into, or removing one from, the charging station.
Never charge the battery pack if the ambient
temperature is less than 10 °C or greater than
40 °C.
1. Insert the battery pack 6 into the quick-
charger 13 (see Fig. C).
2. Insert the mains plug into the mains socket. The
flashing green charge indicator LED 15 shows
that charging is in progress.
3. The charging process is completed when the
green charge indicator LED 15 light up and the
accumulator pack 6 is ready for operation.
4. If the red charge indicator LED 14 lights up, the
quick battery charger 13 is in standby mode;
the accumulator pack 6 is not connected.
5. If the red charge indicator LED 14 starts flas-
hing, this means that the accumulator pack 6
has become too hot; no charging process.
Never charge the battery pack for a second time
immediately after a fast charging process has
been completed. This can give rise to the battery
pack becoming overcharged and to a reduced
service life of the battery and charging station.
Switch the charger off for at least 15 minutes
between two successive charging procedures.
Remove the power plug from the wall socket.
Insertion / removal of a battery
pack into the appliance
Inserting the rechargeable battery pack:
Move the rotation switch 2 into the middle
position (lock). Push the rechargeable battery
pack
6 into the handle until it engages.
Removing the rechargeable battery pack:
Press the release button 7 and remove the
rechargeable battery pack
Checking battery status
To check the battery status, press the battery
LED button
9 (refer to main diagram).
The three battery LEDs 8 indicate the condition
and the remaining charge as follows:
GREEN / RED / ORANGE = maximum charge /
capacity
RED / ORANGE = medium charge / capacity
RED = weak charge – recharge battery
Changing tools
Your cordless drill has a fully automatic spindle
lock
.
Once the motor has come to a halt, the drive shaft
is automatically locked, so that the chuck
11 can
be opened simply by turning it .
After you have inserted the required bit and fixed it
in place by turning the chuck
, you can immedi-
ately continue working. The spindle lock releases
itself automatically when the motor is started (by
operation of the ON / OFF switch
3 ).
