to adjust to the ambient temperature before switching it on. The accuracy of the
measuring tool and the functionality of the display may be compromised if exposed to
extreme temperatures or variations in temperature.
uAvoid hard knocks to the measuring tool or dropping it. After severe external influ-
ences and in the event of abnormalities in the functionality, you should have the
measuring tool checked by an authorised Bosch after-sales service agent.
uCertain ambient conditions fundamentally impair the measuring results. These
include, e.g. the proximity of devices that generate strong electric, magnetic or
electromagnetic fields, moisture, metal building materials, foil-laminated insula-
tion materials or conductive wallpaper or tiles. Therefore, also refer to other in-
formation sources (e.g. construction plans) before drilling, sawing or routing into
walls, ceilings or floors.
uHold the measuring tool by the intended gripping surface (11) only, so as not to
influence the measurement.
uDo not attach any stickers or labels to the sensor area(19) on the rear of the
measuring tool. Metal labels in particular will affect measuring results.
Do not wear gloves when taking measurements and make sure that you
are properly earthed. If you are not properly earthed, the material identifica-
tion of "live" wires may be impaired.
When taking measurements, avoid devices that emit strong electric, mag-
netic or electromagnetic fields. If possible, deactivate all tools whose radi-
ation could interfere with the measurement and switch off the corresponding
functions or tools.
Measuring Tool Power Supply
The measuring tool can be operated either with conventional non-rechargeable batteries
or with a Bosch lithium-ion battery.
Operation with lithium-ion rechargeable battery pack (seefigureA)
uUse only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only these chargers are matched
to the lithium-ion battery of your measuring tool.
Note: The use of batteries unsuitable for your measuring tool can lead to malfunctions or
damage to the measuring tool.
Note: Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries are supplied partially charged according to in-
ternational transport regulations. To ensure full rechargeable battery capacity, fully
charge the rechargeable battery before using your tool for the first time.
To insert the charged battery pack(10), slide it into the battery bay(25) until you feel it
engage.
