Check to see if outlet is connected to a light switch which turns power "off" when lights are turned off. c. Check battery pack terminals for dirt. Clean with cotton swab and alcohol if necessary. d. If you still do not get proper charging, take or send tool, battery pack and charger to your local Bosch Service Center. See "Tools, Electric" in the Yellow Pages for names and addresses. Note: Use of chargers or battery packs not sold by Bosch will void the warranty. CHARGING BATTERY PACK (BC830 1 HOUR CHARGER) Plug charger cord into your standard power outlet, then insert battery pack into charger (Fig. 7). The charger's green indicator light will begin to "BLINK". This indicates that the battery is receiving a fast charge. Fast-charging will automatically stop when the battery pack is fully charged. When the unit beeps and the indicator light stops "BLINKING" (and becomes a steady green light) fast charging is complete. The battery pack may be used even though the light may still be blinking. The light may require more time to stop blinking depending on temperature. When you begin the charging process of the battery pack, a steady red light could also mean the battery pack is too hot or too cold. The purpose of the green light is to indicate that the battery pack is fast-charging. It does not indicate the exact point of full charge. The light will stop blinking in less time if the battery pack was not completely discharged. When needed, the internal fan of the charger will turn on to aid the charging process and speed. When charging several batteries in sequence, the charge time may slightly increase. When the battery pack is fully charged, unplug the charger (unless you're charging another battery pack) and slip the battery pack back into the tool.
