Safety
Usage in compliance with the intended use
The mobile alarm device spexor monitors its environment
with various sensors and triggers an alarm in case of
deviations. spexor should only be used in closed rooms or
vehicles and only in dry environments.
spexor may only be used in a normal household environ-
ment or in vehicles and under no circumstances in parti-
cularly critical areas. spexor is not an alarm system, burglar
detection system or fire alarm system, especially not in
the sense of the relevant DIN and VdS standards. spexor
is neither certified as a smoke detector in accordance with
standard EN 14604: 2005/AC:2008 nor is it suitable for
this purpose. The sensors installed in spexor, such as for
air quality, are not calibrated measuring devices for high-
precision measurements.

Safety
Hazards
No modifications to the alarm device! Modifications to
the alarm device can result in hazardous damage to the
battery, short circuit and malfunction. Do not modify the
alarm device in any way. Do not open the alarm device. The
alarm device does not contain any components that you can
maintain or replace.
Fire hazard! Charge the battery of the alarm device
only with the charger supplied by the manufacturer.
If a charger designed for a particular type of battery is used
with other batteries, then there is a risk of fire.

English | 8
Safety
Hazardous vapors or liquids! If the device and battery
are damaged, vapors or flammable liquids may escape
from the battery. The vapors can irritate the respiratory
system. Ventilate the area with fresh air and seek medical
help in case of complaints. Leaking battery fluid may cause
skin irritation or burns. Avoid contact with it. In case of acci-
dental contact, rinse the affected body part with water.
Exposure to fire and heat! Excessive heat can damage
the battery or sensors. There is a risk of explosion or short
circuit. Protect the alarm device from heat and keep it away
from heat sources such as radiators or stoves and from
open flames. Observe the operating and storage tempera-
ture ranges specified in the Technical Data on page 20.

English | 9
Safety
Loud alarm signal! If an alarm is triggered, the audio
module of the alarm device emits an acoustic signal
that is loud enough to damage your hearing. Do not hold
the alarm device directly against your ears or those of other
people. Never use the alarm device as a baby monitor!
Penetrating moisture! The alarm device is not pro-
tected against moisture, water or liquids. Penetrating
moisture can destroy the alarm device. Keep the alarm
device away from water or other liquids.

English | 10
Safety
Damaged or entangled charging cable! Damaged or
tangled charging cables can result in a short circuit.
Do not misuse the charger cable for other purposes, such
as carrying or hanging the alarm device or to pull the plug
from the electrical socket. Keep the charger cable away from
heat, oil, sharp edges, tools and other machines.
Hazards caused by unauthorized use! The nature of the
device's design and components can result in hazard-
ous situations if the alarm device is used by unautho-
rized persons. Store unused alarm devices out of the reach
of children. Do not allow persons to use the alarm device
who are not familiar with the device or who have not read
these operating instructions.

it is touched or moved while monitoring is
deactivated.
Short flashes every 30 seconds: spexor is
active when monitoring is activated.
Three flashes sequentially emitted all
around the LED array bar: Power supply
unit has been detected and charging begins.

Description
Function
spexor is a mobile danger warning device. Its sensors
monitor the environment in closed rooms, e.g. at home, in
the garage, in the garden shed, in the mobile home or in
vehicles with regard to pressure, sound and movement,
vibration, air, temperature, brightness, humidity, fire-related
gases, hazardous gases (e.g. carbon monoxide) and air
quality. For intrusion detection, spexor continuously evalu-
ates a combination of the various sensors. If deviations are
registered, spexor triggers an alarm.
Some of the in-built sensors can only be unlocked with
future updates.
One of the first functions to be realized is the measurement
of air quality. spexor can measure volatile organic compo-
nents (VOC) in indoor air.

English | 17
Description
These are a measure of air quality. Poor air quality increases
the risk of airborne viruses spreading.
spexor uses standard technologies for cellular mobile tele-
phony and wireless data transmission: Bluetooth®, WLAN
and GSM (2G). It can also ascertain its location via GPS
data.
Unlike smartphones, spexor has a permanently installed
eSIM card for mobile phone use that cannot be replaced. It
is roaming-enabled and uses all major network operators.
If you are nearby, spexor establishes a direct connection to
your smartphone and the app via Bluetooth®. This is only
used when setting up and editing the device settings, but
not for activating or deactivate monitoring or for alarm

messages via your smartphone. This saves mobile phone
time and conserves battery power.
No matter where spexor is installed and how far away from
your smartphone, it sends alarm messages via the mobile
phone network with the permanently installed mobile phone
card first to the automated Bosch data processing system.
From there, the message is forwarded to your smartphone.
At home this is done via WLAN to conserve the battery
power of spexor, at all other locations via mobile phone with
2G, provided that mobile phone reception is available.
The rechargeable battery from spexor lasts for several
weeks on a single charge, and even longer if operated using
WLAN exclusively.
