2. Important notes
Before start up, connecting and operating
Bosch products it is absolutely essential
that the operating instructions/owner’s
manual and, in particular, the safety in-
structions are studied carefully. By doing so you can
eliminate any uncertainties in handling Bosch products
and thus associated safety risks upfront; something
which is in the interests of your own safety and will
ultimately help avoid damage to the device. When a
Bosch product is handed over to another person, not
only the operating instructions but also the safety
instructions and information on its designated use must
be handed over to the person.
