A) When measuring from the back edge of the measuring tool, this
applies for high reflectivity of the target (e.g. a wall painted white),
weak background lighting and a 20°C operating temperature; a
distance-dependent deviation of ±0.05mm/m must additionally
be factored in.
B) When measuring from the back edge of the measuring tool, this
applies for high reflectivity of the target (e.g. a wall painted white),
strong background lighting, 20°C operating temperature and high
elevation. In addition, a deviation of ±0.15mm/m must be taken
into account, depending on the distance.
C) Only non-conductive deposits occur, whereby occasional tempor-
ary conductivity caused by condensation is expected.
The serial number (8) on the type plate is used to clearly identify your
measuring tool.
Inserting/Changing the Battery
Using alkali-manganese or nickel metal hydride rechargeable
batteries (especially at low operating temperatures) is recom-
mended for operation of the measuring tool.
With 1.2 V rechargeable batteries, more measurements may
be possible than with 1.5 V batteries, depending on the capa-
city.
Open the battery compartment cover.
Insert the batteries/rechargeable batteries.
Always replace all the batteries/rechargeable batteries
at the same time. Only use batteries/rechargeable bat-
teries from the same manufacturer and which have the same
capacity.
1 609 92A 82K | (20.12.2022) Bosch Power Tools

English | 11
When inserting the batteries, ensure that the polarity is
correct according to the illustration on the inside of the
battery compartment.
When the empty battery symbol first appears on the display
and flashes, only a limited number of measurements is still
possible. Replace the batteries or reusable batteries.
uTake the batteries out of the measuring tool when you
are not using it for a prolonged period of time. The bat-
teries can corrode and self-discharge during prolonged
storage.
Operation
Starting Operation
uNever leave the measuring tool unattended when
switched on, and ensure the measuring tool is switched
off after use. Others may be dazzled by the laser beam.
uProtect the measuring tool from moisture and direct
sunlight.
uDo not expose the measuring tool to any extreme tem-
peratures or variations in temperature. For example, do
not leave it in a car for extended periods of time. In case of
large variations in temperature, allow the measuring tool to
adjust to the ambient temperature before putting it into op-
eration. The precision of the measuring tool may be com-
promised if exposed to extreme temperatures or variations
in temperature.
uAvoid substantial knocks to the measuring tool and
avoid dropping it. After strong external influences on the
measuring tool, you should always carry out an accuracy
check(see "Accuracy Check", page16) before further
work.

Switching On and Off
Press the button to switch on the measuring tool.
Press and hold the button to switch off the measuring
tool.
If no button on the measuring tool is pressed for approx.
5min, the measuring tool will switch off automatically to pre-
serve the non-rechargeable batteries.
Measuring Process
When switching on for the first time, the measuring tool will be
in the length measurement function. When switching on every
subsequent time, the measuring tool will be in the measuring
function that was last used.
The rear edge of the measuring tool is always the reference
level for the measurement.
Apply the measuring tool to the point at which you want to
start the measurement (e.g. wall).
Press the button to switch on the laser beam.
Target the target surface with the laser beam.
Briefly press the button again to start the measure-
ment.
The duration of the measurement depends on the distance,
the lighting conditions and the reflective properties of the tar-
get surface. Upon completion of the measurement, the laser
beam will automatically switch off.
The measuring tool must not be moved during a meas-
urement. Therefore, place the measuring tool, as far as
this is possible, against or on a firm stop or supporting surface.
1 609 92A 82K | (20.12.2022) Bosch Power Tools

English | 13
The reception lens(10) and the laser beam output(11)
must not be covered during the measuring process.
Influences on the Measuring Range
The measuring range depends on the lighting conditions and
the reflective properties of the target surface.
For better visibility of the laser beam in bright extraneous light,
use the laser viewing glasses(13) (accessory) and the laser
target plate(12) (accessory), or shade the target surface.
Influences on the Measurement Result
Due to physical effects, incorrect measurements are possible
when measuring on various surfaces. These include:
– Transparent surfaces (e.g. glass, water)
– Reflective surfaces (e.g. polished metal, glass)
– Porous surfaces (e.g. insulation materials)
– Structured surfaces (e.g. roughcast, natural stone)
If necessary, use the laser target plate(12) (accessory) on
these surfaces.
Incorrect measurements are also possible on slanted target
surfaces.
Likewise, layers of air with different temperatures or indirectly
received reflections can influence the measured value.
Changing the Unit of Measurement
The default unit of measurement is "m" (metres).
Switch on the measuring tool .
Press and hold the button until the
menu for selecting the unit of measure-
ment is displayed.
Press the button to change the unit of measurement.

The individual measured values are in
the measured value lines(e).
Accuracy Check
Regularly check the accuracy of the measuring tool.
Accuracy Check of the Distance Measurement
For the accuracy check, the measurement should be taken un-
der favourable conditions, i.e. the measuring section should
be indoors and the target surface for the measurement should
be smooth and reflect well (e.g. a white-painted wall).
1 609 92A 82K | (20.12.2022) Bosch Power Tools

English | 17
Select a measuring section of approx.1 to10m long, the
length of which you know exactly (e.g. room width, door-
way).
Measure the section 10 times in succession.
The deviation of individual measurements from the exact
known value may be maximum ±2mm throughout the en-
tire measuring section under favourable conditions. Log
the measurements, so that you can compare their accuracy
at a later point of time.
Error Message
If a measurement cannot be performed correctly, the error
messageError will appear in the display.
Try to perform the measuring process again.
If the error message appears again, switch the measuring
tool off and back on, and start the measurement again.
The measuring tool monitors correct operation in
every measurement. If a defect is detected, the dis-
play will indicate only the symbol shown opposite
and the measuring tool switches itself off. In this
case, have the measuring tool checked by an after-sales ser-
vice agent for Bosch power tools.
