2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow these instructions.
5. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators,
heaters, stoves, or other equipment (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.
6. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with
one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two
blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the
third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug
does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete outlet.
7. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched,
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the apparatus.
8. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the
manufacturer.
9. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
specified by the manufacturer. When a cart is used, use
caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to

unused for long periods of time. This will prevent damage
to the unit from lightning and power line surges.
11. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing
is required when the apparatus has been damaged in a way,
such as power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has
been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the
apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not

Caution!
A regulated 24 VAC, 43W power supply is recommended for use
with this camera for the best picture and the most stable
operation. An unregulated power supply can cause damage to
the camera. When unregulated power supply is applied,
product warranty will be void.
Bosch recommends using the camera with a monitor that has a
CCTV-quality 75 Ohm video impedance level. If your monitor is
switched to high impedance, please adjust accordingly.
Do not attempt to disassemble the camera to gain access to the
internal components. Refer servicing to your dealer or to
qualified service personnel.
Never face the camera towards the sun or any bright or
reflective light. This may cause smear on the picture and
possible damage to the CCD.
Do not remove the serial sticker for the warranty service.
All-pole power switch - Incorporate an all-pole power switch,
with a contact separation of at least 3 mm in each pole, into the
electrical installation of the building. If it is needed to open the
housing for servicing and/or other activities, use this all-pole
switch as the main disconnect device for switching off the
voltage to the unit.
Camera grounding - For mounting the camera in potentially
damp environments, ensure to ground the system using the
ground connection of the power supply connector (see section:
Connecting external power supply).
Camera lens - An assembled camera lens in the outdoor housing
must comply and be tested in accordance with UL/IEC60065.
Any output or signal lines from the camera must be SELV or
1.3
8en | Safety AUTDOME 4000 Mini
PTZ Dome
2013.4 | | Bosch Security Systems, Inc.

Limited Power Source. For safety reasons, the environmental
specification of the camera lens assembly must be within the
environmental specification of -10 °C (14 °F) to 50 °C (122 °F).
Camera signal - Protect the cable with a primary protector if the
camera signal is beyond 140 feet, in accordance with NEC800
(CEC Section 60).
Coax grounding:
– Ground the cable system if connecting an outside cable
system to the unit.
– Connect outdoor equipment to the unit's inputs only after
this unit has had its grounding plug connected to a
grounded outlet or its ground terminal is properly
connected to a ground source.
– Disconnect the unit's input connectors from outdoor
equipment before disconnecting the grounding plug or
grounding terminal.
– Follow proper safety precautions such as grounding for any
outdoor device connected to this unit.
U.S.A. models only - Section 810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA No.70 provides information regarding proper
grounding of the mount and supporting structure, grounding of
the coax to a discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes,
and requirements for the grounding electrode.
