Power supply

The inspection camera can be operated either with a Bosch lithium-ion rechargeable battery, with commercially available non-rechargeable batteries or with commercially available NiMH rechargeable batteries.

The battery charge indicator (c) will indicate the state of charge of the Li-ion battery, non-rechargeable batteries or NiMH batteries on the display.

The non-rechargeable or NiMH rechargeable batteries are inserted into the battery adapter.

  • The battery adapter is intended only for use in designated Bosch inspection cameras and must not be used with power tools.

Battery Adapter, New Version (see figure A1):

Rotate the cap (22) of the battery adapter anticlockwise and remove the cap. Put the non-rechargeable or rechargeable batteries into the battery adapter (17). Make sure that the polarity is correct and corresponds to the marking on the battery adapter.

Place the cap (22) back on the battery adapter. Pay attention to the markings on cap and battery adapter. Turn the cap clockwise to lock it in place.

To insert the battery adapter (17), push it into the battery bay (20) until you feel it engage.

To remove the battery adapter (17), press the release buttons (21) and pull the battery adapter out of the battery bay (20).

Battery Adapter, Old Version (see figure A2):

To insert the non-rechargeable/rechargeable batteries, slide the receptacle (23) of the battery adapter into the bay (20). 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 (23) from inside the port (20).

Battery Adapter, Both Versions:

Always replace all the batteries at the same time. Only use batteries from the same manufacturer and which have the same capacity.

  • Remove the non-rechargeable/rechargeable batteries from the inspection camera when not using it for longer periods. The non-rechargeable/rechargeable batteries can corrode during prolonged storage in the inspection camera.

  • Use only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only these battery chargers are matched to the lithium-ion batteries of your inspection camera.

Note: Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries are supplied partially charged according to international 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 (16), slide it into the port (20) until you feel it click into place and it is flush with the handle of the inspection camera.

To remove the battery (16), press the release buttons (21) and pull it out of the port (20). Do not use force to do this.

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.

A significantly reduced operating time after charging indicates that the battery has deteriorated and must be replaced.

Follow the instructions on correct disposal.
