Protection rating
A) Only non-conductive deposits occur, whereby occasional temporary conductivity caused by condensation is expected.
B) When using Bluetooth® Low Energy devices, it may not be possible to establish a connection depending on the model and operating system.
Bluetooth® devices must support the SPP profile.
C) The signal range may vary greatly depending on external conditions, including the receiving device used. The Bluetooth® range may be signi-
ficantly weaker inside closed rooms and through metallic barriers (e.g. walls, shelving units, cases, etc.).

Assembly

Measuring Tool Power Supply

The measuring tool can be operated either with conventional
non-rechargeable batteries or with a Bosch lithium-ion bat-
tery.
Do not use any commercially available rechargeable batter-
ies (e.g. nickel metal hydride).

Operation with Rechargeable Battery

Use only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only
u
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: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure
full battery capacity, fully charge the battery in the charger
before using your tool for the first time.
The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without
reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging process
does not damage the battery.
The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharge
by the "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)". A protective circuit
switches the measuring tool off when the battery is drained.
Do not switch the measuring tool back on after it has
u
been switched off by the protective circuit. This can
damage the battery.

Battery charge indicator

If the rechargeable battery is removed from the measuring
tool, its state of charge may be indicated by the green LEDs
of the battery charge indicator on the battery.
Press the button for the battery charge indicator
show the state of charge.
If no LED lights up after pressing the button for the battery
charge indicator, then the battery is defective and must be
replaced.

Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the Battery

Protect the battery against moisture and water.
Only store the battery within a temperature range of −20 to
50 °C. Do not leave the battery in your car in the summer, for
example.
Occasionally clean the ventilation slots on the battery using a
soft brush that is clean and dry.
A significantly reduced operating time after charging indic-
ates that the battery has deteriorated and must be replaced.
Follow the instructions on correct disposal.

Operation with Non-Rechargeable Batteries

It is recommended that you use alkaline manganese batter-
ies to operate the measuring tool.
Put the batteries into the battery adapter (22). Make sure
that the polarity is correct and corresponds to the diagram
on the battery adapter.
The battery adapter is intended only for use in desig-
u
nated Bosch measuring tools and must not be used
or to
with power tools.
Always replace all the batteries at the same time. Only use
batteries from the same manufacturer and which have the
same capacity.
Take the batteries out of the measuring tool when you
u
are not using it for a prolonged period of time. The bat-
teries can corrode and self-discharge during prolonged
storage in the measuring tool.
