Robert Bosch GmbH, Power Tools Division D-70745 Leinfelden-Echterdingen Leinfelden, 01.04.2011 Assembly Inserting/Replacing the Battery Alkali-manganese batteries are recommended for the measuring tool. To open the battery lid 3, slide it in the direction of the arrow away from the bat- tery compartment. Insert the battery provided. When inserting, pay attention to the correct polarity according to the representation on the inside of the battery compartment. The battery indicator e always indicates the current battery status: – Battery fully charged – Battery has 2/3 of its capacity or less – Battery has 1/3 of its capacity or less – Please change battery f If the measuring tool is not used for a long period of time, the battery must be removed. The battery can corrode or discharge itself over long periods. Operation f Protect the measuring tool against moisture and direct sun light. f Do not subject the measuring tool to extreme temperatures or variations in temperature. In case of large variations in temperature, allow the measuring tool to adjust to the ambient temperature before switching it on. In case of extreme temperatures or variations in temperature, the accu- racy of the measuring tool and the display indication can be impaired. f Use or operation of transmitting systems, such as WLAN, UMTS, radar, transmitter masts or microwaves, in the close proximity can influence the measuring function. Initial Operation Switching On and Off f Before switching the measuring tool on, make sure that the sensor area 11 is not moist. If required, dry the measuring tool using a soft cloth. f If the measuring tool was subject to an extreme temperature change, allow it to adjust to the ambient temperature before switching on. To switch on the measuring tool, press the On/Off button 5. To switch off the measuring tool, press the On/Off button 5 again. When no button on the measuring tool is pressed for approx. 5 minutes and when no objects are detected, the measuring tool automatically switches off to save the battery.

Switching the Audio Signal On/Off The audio signal can be switched on/off with the audio signal button 4. When the audio signal is switched off, indication l appears on the display. Method of Operation (see figure A) The measuring tool checks the base material of sensor area 11 in measurement direction z to the max. detection depth (see “Technical Data”). Objects are de- tected that differ from the material of the wall. Always move the measuring tool in a straight line over the surface applying slight pressure, without lifting it off or changing the pressure. During measurement, the contact pads 10 must always have contact to the surface. Measuring Procedure Position the measuring tool on/against the surface being detected, and move it in direction of axis x and y. When the measuring tool comes closer to an object, the amplitude in measuring indicator f increases and ring 9 lights up yellow; when it is moved away from the object, the amplitude decreases. Measuring in- dicator f indicates the maximal amplitude above the centre of the object; ring 9 lights up red and an audio signal sounds. For small or deeply embedded objects, ring 9 can continue to light up yellow, while there is no audio signal. f Wide objects are not indicated by the illuminated ring or the audio signal throughout their complete width. To localise the object more precisely, move the measuring tool repeatedly (3x) back and forth over the object. Wider objects in the base material are detected through a continuous, high am- plitude of measuring indicator f. Ring 9 lights up yellow. The duration of the high amplitude corresponds approximately with the object width. When very small or deeply embedded objects are being sought and measuring indicator f reacts only slightly, move the measuring tool repeatedly over the ob- ject in horizontal (axis x) and vertical (axis y) direction. f Before drilling, sawing or routing into a wall, protect yourself against hazards by using other information sources. As the measuring results can be influenced through ambient conditions or the wall material, there may be a hazard even though the indicator does not indicate an object in the sensor range (no audio signal or beep and and the illuminated ring 9 lit green). Operating Modes The best measuring results are achieved through selection of the operating mode. The maximal detection depth for metal objects is achieved in the operat- ing mode “Metal”. The maximal detection depth for non-metal objects is achieved in the operating mode “Drywall”. “Live” conductors are detected in any operating mode. Drywall The operating mode “Drywall” is suitable for detecting wood or metal objects as well as “live” conductors in drywalls. Press button 1 to activate the operating mode “Drywall”. The indicator h lights up. As soon as the measuring tool is positioned against the base material to be detected, ring 9 lights up green and signals operational readiness. In the operating mode “Drywall” all object types are detected and indicated: – Non-metal, e.g. a wood beam – Magnetic, e.g. reinforcing steel – Non-magnetic, but metal, e.g. copper pipe – “Live”, e.g. a “live” conductor OBJ_BUCH-1380-004.book Page 16 Wednesday, April 20, 2011 10:12 AMEnglish | 17 Bosch Power Tools 2 609 140 838 | (20.4.11) Notes: In the operating mode “Drywall”, other objects, apart from wood and metal objects and “live” conductors are also detected, such as plastic tubing filled with water. For such objects, the indication g for non-metal objects is indi- cated in display 7. Nails and screws in the base material may cause a wooden beam to be indicated as a metal object on the display. When display 7 indicates a continuously high amplitude of measuring indicator f and measuring indicator c, restart the measuring procedure again by positioning the measuring tool at a different location on the base material. When the illuminated ring 9 does not signal operational readiness when position- ing the measuring tool on the base material being detected, the measuring tool cannot properly detect the base material. – Press and hold button 1 until the illuminated ring lights up green. – When starting a new measuring procedure afterwards and positioning the measuring tool onto a different wall or surface, you must briefly press button 1. – In rare cases, the measuring tool may not be able to detect the base material because the side with the sensor area 11 and the type plate 12 is soiled or dirty. Clean the measuring tool with a dry, soft cloth and restart the measuring procedure. When the indication k (non-magnetic metal) or i (magnetic metal) is alternately displayed at a measuring position in operating mode “Drywall”, you should change to the operating mode “Metal”, which is better suitable for detecting and differentiating between magnetic and non-magnetic objects. Metal The operating mode “Metal” is suitable for detecting magnetic and non-magnet- ic objects as well as “live” conductors (independent of the wall material). Press button 6 to activate the operating mode “Metal”. The illuminated ring 9 lights up green and indication j lights up. When the detected metal object is of magnetic metal (e.g. iron), the symbol i is indicated on display 7. For non-magnetic metals, the symbol k is indicated. In or- der to differentiate between metal types, the measuring tool must be positioned above the detected metal object (ring 9 is lit red). Note: For reinforcement steel mesh and steel in the examined base material, an amplitude is indicated over the complete surface of measuring indicator f. For reinforcement steel mesh, it is typical that the symbol i for magnetic metal is in- dicated on the display directly above the iron rods, whereas between the iron rods, the symbol k for non-magnetic metal will appear. Scanning for “Live” Wires “Live” conductors are indicated in any operating mode. When a “live” conductor is detected, indication a appears on the display 7 and the measuring indicator c deflects. Move the measuring tool repeatedly over the area to localise the “live” conductor more precisely. After moving over the “live” conductor several times, it can be indicated very accurately. When the measur- ing tool is very close to the conductor, the illuminated ring 9 flashes red and the audio signal beeps swiftly. Notes: – “Live” conductors can be detected easier when power consumers (e.g. lamps, machines) are connected to the sought conductor and switched on. – Under certain conditions (such as below metal surfaces or behind surfac- es with high water content), “live” conductors cannot be securely de- tected. The signal strength of a “live” conductor depends on the position of the cable. Therefore, apply further measurements in close proximity or use other information sources to check if a “live” conductor exists. OBJ_BUCH-1380-004.book Page 17 Wednesday, April 20, 2011 10:12 AM18 | English 2 609 140 838 | (20.4.11) Bosch Power Tools – Voltage-free conductors can be detected as metal objects in the operation mode “Metal”. This does not apply for stranded conductors (contrary to solid conductors or cable). – Static electricity can lead to inaccurate indication of electric lines, e.g., over a large range. To improve the indication, place your free hand flat on the wall next to the measuring tool, in order to remove the static electricity. Working Advice f Measuring values can be impaired through certain ambient conditions. These include, e.g., the proximity of other equipment that produce strong magnetic or electromagnetic fields, moisture, metallic building materials, foil-laminated insulation materials or conductive wallpaper or tiles. Therefore, please also observe other information sources (e.g. con- struction plans) before drilling, sawing or routing into walls, ceilings or floors. Marking Objects If required, detected objects can be marked. Perform a measurement as usual. Once you have found the boundaries or the centre of an object, mark the sought location through the marking hole 8. Temperature Control The measuring tool is equipped with a temperature control indicator, as accurate measurements are only possible as long as the temperature within the measur- ing tool remains constant. When the temperature control indicator d lights up, the measuring tool is not within the operating temperature range or was subject to large variations in tem- perature. Switch the measuring tool off and allow it to adjust to the ambient temperature before switching it on again. Warning Function When indicator b lights up on the display, the measurement must be restarted. Remove the measuring tool from the wall and place it on the base material at a different location. When indicator b flashes on display 7, send the measuring tool in the provided protective pouch to an authorised customer services agent. Recalibration When measuring indicator f indicates a continuously high amplitude in the oper- ating mode “Metal”, even though there is no metal object near the measuring tool, the measuring tool can be manually recalibrated. – Switch the measuring tool off. – Remove all objects near the measuring tool that could be detected, including your wrist watch or rings made of metal, and hold the measuring tool up. Pay attention that battery indicator e indicates at least 1/3 capacity: Hold the measuring tool in such a manner that the type plate 12 faces toward the ground. Avoid bright light sources or direct sunlight from shining on the area 11 and 12, without covering off this area. – Press and hold buttons 5 and 4 until the illuminated ring 9 lights up red. Then release both buttons. – When the calibration was successful, the measuring tool will automatically start after a few seconds, and will be ready for operation again. Note: If the measuring tool does not automatically start, repeat the recalibration. If the measuring tool still does not start, send it in the provided protective pouch to an authorised customer services agent.
