Operation with Battery Adapter (see figure A)
The non-rechargeable or NiMH rechargeable batteries are inserted into the battery ad-
apter.
The battery adapter is intended only for use in designated Bosch inspection cam-
u
eras and must not be used with power tools.
To insert the non-rechargeable/rechargeable batteries, slide the receptacle (20) of the
battery adapter into the bay (19). Place the non-rechargeable/rechargeable batteries in
the receptacle as shown in the picture on the cap (22). Slide the cap over the cover until
you feel it click into place and it is flush with the handle of the inspection camera.
To remove the non-rechargeable/rechargeable batteries , press the release
buttons (21) of the cap (22) and pull off the cap. Pull out the cover (20) from inside the
port (19).
Always replace all the batteries at the same time. Only use batteries from the same man-
ufacturer and which have the same capacity.
Remove the non-rechargeable/rechargeable batteries from the inspection cam-
u
era when not using it for longer periods. The batteries and rechargeable batteries
can corrode and self-discharge if stored for prolonged periods in the inspection cam-
era.
Operation with Lithium-Ion Rechargeable Battery (see figure B)
Use only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only these battery chargers are
u
matched to the lithium-ion batteries of your inspection camera.
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 rechargeable battery (14), slide it into the port (19) until you feel
it click into place and it is flush with the handle of the inspection camera.
To remove the battery (14), press the release buttons (21) and pull it out of the
port (19). Do not use force to do this.
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 bat-
tery in your car in the summer, for example.
A significantly reduced operating time after charging indicates that the battery has de-
teriorated and must be replaced.
Follow the instructions on correct disposal.
