Winter Storage and Transportion
 Remove isolator key when storing.
 The Indego will operate between 5 °C and 45 °C. During
the winter season once the temperature in the garden is
consistently below 5 °C store the machine and the docking
station in a secure, dry place, out of the reach of children.
Do not place other objects on the machine or docking station.
It is recommended to use the original packaging when trans-
porting the Indego over long distances.

nosis by a Bosch Service Centre. If cover is removed please
replace correctly.

Battery Hazards

 Recharge only in the Bosch approved docking station.
 The Indego will operate between 5 °C and 45 °C. If the bat-
tery is outside this range the Indego will display on screen
that the temperature is out of range and will not leave the
docking station. If operating it will return to the docking
station.
 In the unlikely event of liquid being ejected from the bat-
tery avoid all contact with the machine. If contact with the
liquid occurs, seek medical advise.
 If the battery becomes defective, liquid can escape and
come into contact with adjacent components. Check any
parts concerned and contact the Bosch Service Centre.
 Do not open the machine and battery inside. Danger of
short-circuiting and electric shock.
 Protect the machine against fire. Danger of battery ex-
plosion.
 In case of damage and improper use of the machine, va-
pours may be emitted from the battery. Provide for
fresh air and seek medical help in case of complaints.
The vapours can irritate the respiratory system.
 Store the machine only within a temperature range be-
tween -20 °C and 50 °C. As an example, do not leave the
machine in the car in summer.
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,
power supply, cable or plug increases the risk of an electric
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.
Bosch Power Tools
 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-
ry or mental limitations or to their lack of experience or
knowledge, are not capable of safely operating the
docking station or power supply, may only use this
docking station and power supply under supervision or
after having been instructed by a responsible person.
Otherwise, there is danger of operating errors 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 sock-
et that is protected by a circuit-breaker that is actuated by
a 30 mA residual current. Check your Residual Current De-
vice (RCD) at regular intervals.
 The supply cord must be inspected for signs of damage at
regular intervals and may only be used if in perfect condi-
tion.
 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 pow-
er 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 is double insulated for safety and requires
no earth connection. The operating voltage is 230 V AC,
50 Hz (for non-EU countries 220 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.
