range, then the material is screening-off electrically and the scan for "live"
wires/conductors is not reliable.

Working Advice

 Measuring values can be impaired through certain ambient condi-
tions. These include, e.g., the proximity of other equipment that
produce strong magnetic or electromagnetic fields, moisture, me-
tallic building materials, foil-laminated insulation materials or
conductive wallpaper or tiles. Therefore, please also observe other
information sources (e.g. construction plans) before drilling, sawing
or routing into walls, ceilings or floors.
Marking Objects
Detected objects can be marked as required. Where the amplitude of
measuring indication c is at its maximum, the centre of the object is locat-
ed below marking hole 2. The limits of an object are indicated by the col-
our change of the illuminated ring 1 from green to red. Using a pen, mark
the sought after location through the marking hole 2.
"AutoCal" Calibration Indicator
When the check mark behind the "AutoCal" calibration indicator d flash-
es for longer periods or if it is not displayed anymore, reliable scanning is
no longer possible. In this case, send in the measuring tool to an author-
ised Bosch after-sales service agent.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

When the measuring indicator c continuously shows an amplitude even
though there is no metal object in the vicinity of the measuring tool, the
measuring tool can be calibrated manually. For this, remove all objects in
the vicinity of the measuring tool (including wrist watches or rings of met-
al) and hold the measuring tool up in the air. With the measuring tool
switched off, press the On/Off button 4 until the illuminated ring 1 lights
up red and green at the same time. Then release the button. When the cal-
ibration process was successful, the measuring tool will start over after a
few seconds and is then ready for operation.
Wipe away debris or contamination with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents.
