Safety Instructions
All instructions must be read and observed in order for the measuring tool to function safely. The safeguards integrated into the measuring tool may be compromised if the measuring tool is not used in accordance with these instructions. Never make warning signs on the measuring tool unrecognisable. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE AND INCLUDE THEM WITH THE MEASURING TOOL WHEN TRANSFERRING IT TO A THIRD PARTY.
- Warning! If operating or adjustment devices other than those specified here are used or other procedures are carried out, this can lead to dangerous exposure to radiation.
- The measuring tool is delivered with a laser warning sign (marked in the illustration of the measuring tool on the graphics page).
- If the text of the laser warning label is not in your national language, stick the provided warning label in your national language over it before operating for the firsttime.
Do not direct the laser beam at persons or animals and do not stare into the direct or reflected laser beam yourself. You could blind somebody, cause accidents or damage your eyes.
-
If laser radiation hits your eye, you must close your eyes and immediately turn your head away from the beam.
-
Do not make any modifications to the laser equipment.
-
Do not use the laser goggles (accessory) as protective goggles. The laser goggles make the laser beam easier to see; they do not protect you against laser radiation.
-
Do not use the laser goggles (accessory) as sunglasses or while driving. The laser goggles do not provide full UV protection and impair your ability to see colours.
-
Have the measuring tool serviced only by a qualified specialist using only original replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the measuring tool is maintained.
-
Do not let children use the laser measuring tool unsupervised.
They could unintentionally blind themselves or otherpersons. -
Do not use the measuring tool in explosive atmospheres which contain flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Sparks may be produced inside the measuring tool, which can ignite dust or fumes. -
Do not open the battery. There is a risk of short-circuit- ing.
-
In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapours may be emitted.
The battery can set alight or explode. Ensure the area is well ventilated and seek medical attention should you experience any adverse effects. The vapours may irritate the respiratory system. -
If used incorrectly or if the battery is damaged, flammable liquid may be ejected from the battery. Contact with this liquid should be avoided.
If contact accidentally occurs, rinse off with water. If the liquid comes into contact with your eyes, seek additional medical attention.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns. -
The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally.
An internal short circuit may occur, causing the battery to burn, smoke, explode or overheat. -
When the battery is not in use, keep it away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that could make a connection from one terminal to another. A short circuit between the battery terminals may cause burns or a fire.
-
Only use the battery with products from the manufacturer. This is the only way in which you can protect the battery against dangerous overload.
-
Only charge the batteries using chargers recommended by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery may pose a fire risk when used with a
different battery.
Protect the battery against heat, e.g. against continuous intense sunlight, fire, dirt, water and moisture. There is a risk of explosion and short- circuiting. -
Remove the rechargeable battery/non-rechargeable batteries from the measuring tool before carrying out work on the measuring tool (e.g. assembly, maintenance, etc.). The battery/batteries should also be removed for transport and storage. There is risk of injury from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
-
The measuring tool is equipped with a wireless interface. Local operating restrictions, e.g. in aeroplanes or hospitals, must be observed.
The Bluetooth® word mark and logos are registered trademarks owned by Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and any use of such marks by Robert Bosch Power Tools GmbH is under license. -
Caution! When using the measuring tool with Bluetooth®, a fault may occur in other devices and systems, aeroplanes and medical devices (e.g. pacemakers, hearing aids). Also, damage to people and animals in the immediate vicinity cannot be completely excluded.
Do not use the measuring tool with Bluetooth® in the vicinity of medical devices, petrol stations, chemical plants, areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere and in blasting areas.
Do not use the measuring tool with Bluetooth® on aeroplanes. Avoid using the product near your body for extended periods. -
Protect the measuring tool, particularly the area
around the air humidity, ambient temperature and infrared sensor, from moisture, snow, dust and dirt.
The reception lens could fog up or become contaminated and distort the measurements. Incorrect settings on the tool and other atmospheric influences may make the
measurements inaccurate. Object temperatures could be shown to be hotter or colder than they are, which may present a danger if touched. -
Correct temperature measurements are only possible if the set emissivity and emissivity of the object agree, and the correct reflected temperature is set.
Otherwise, object temperatures could be shown to be hotter or colder than they are, which may present a danger if touched.
Safety Instructions When Using Thermocouples -
Thermocouples must not be used in live electrical systems. This poses a risk to life!
-
Using a thermocouple means contact with the object measured. Therefore, watch out for potential dangers due to temperature, voltage or a chemical reaction.
Product Description and Specifications
Please observe the illustrations at the beginning of this operating manual.
Intended Use
The measuring tool is intended for contactless measurement of surface
temperature, ambient temperature and relative humidity. It calculates the dew
point temperature and indicates thermal bridges and mould risk. Mould spores
cannot be detected with the measuring tool. However, it can help to detect
conditions early on that can encourage mould growth.
The measuring tool may not be used to measure the body temperature of humans
or animals or for other medical purposes.
The measuring tool is not suitable for measuring the surface temperature of
gases.
Temperature measurement in liquids is only possible using a commercially
available thermocouple (connection type K), which can be connected to the
measuring tool via the
interface (25) intended for this. Surface temperature can also be measured by
touching a surface with a thermocouple.
The light of this measuring tool is intended to illuminate the direct work
area of the measuring tool in order to take pictures.
The laser points must not be used as a laser pointer.
They are solely for marking out the area being measured.
The measuring tool is suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
This product is a consumer laser product in accordance with EN 50689.

To remove the batteries, press the release buttons (3) on the cap (28) and pull the cap off. Hold the measuring tool with the battery bay (29) facing upwards to ensure that the batteries do not fall out when you do this.
Remove the batteries. To remove the receptacle (27) from inside the battery bay, reach into the receptacle and pull it out of the measuring tool, applying light pressure to the side wall as you do so.
Always replace all the batteries at the same time. Only use batteries from the same manufacturer and which have the same capacity. -
Take the batteries out of the measuring tool when you are not using it for a prolonged period of time. The batteries can corrode and self-discharge during prolonged
storage in the measuring tool.
Operation With Rechargeable Battery (Not With Article Number 3 601 K83 371) (see figure C) -
Use only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only these chargers are matched to the lithium-ion battery of your measuring tool.
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 battery pack (30), slide it into the battery bay (29) until you feel it click into place and it is flush with the handle of the measuring tool. To remove the battery pack (30), press the release buttons (3) and pull the battery pack out of the battery bay (29).

Operation
Starting Operation
-
Protect the measuring tool from moisture and direct sunlight.
-
Do not expose the measuring tool to any extreme temperatures 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 operation. The precision of the measuring
tool may be compromised if exposed to extreme temperatures or variations in temperature. -
Make sure that the measuring tool is correctly acclimatised.
In case of large variations in temperature, acclimatisation can take up to 60 minutes. This may be the case, for example, if you store the measuring tool in a cool car and then perform a measurement in a warm building. -
Avoid hard knocks to the measuring tool or dropping it. After severe external influences and in the event of ab- normalities in the functionality, you should have the measuring tool checked by an authorised Bosch aftersales service agent.
Switching on/off
Take the protective cap (21) off the infrared reception lens (23) and the
protective cap (19) off the humidity and ambient temperature sensor (5). Make
sure that the camera (22), reception lens (23) and sensor (5) are not closed
or covered when working, as this will affect the accuracy of the measurements
taken.
To switch on the measuring tool, press the on/off button (12) or the measure
button (4). A start sequence will appear on the display (18). After the start
sequence, the measuring tool will be in the operating mode that was saved the
last time the tool was switched off. The lasers are not yet switched on.
Only upon the initial starting operation does the
- Never 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.
- Do not direct the laser beam at persons or animals and do not stare into the laser beam yourself (even from a distance).
In the factory setting, the brightness of the display lighting is reduced 30 s
after each button press to save energy. Pressing any button will switch the
display lighting back to
full strength. In the
protective cap (19) on the humidity and ambient temperature sensor (5).
Do not switch off the measuring tool by removing the battery pack or battery
adapter because this may damage the internal memory in certain cases.
In the main menu, you can set whether and after how long without button
press/measurement the measuring tool automatically switches off (see
“
page 15). The current operating mode and the settings are also saved when the
tool switches off automatically. If the rechargeable battery or the measuring
tool are outside
the operating temperature specified in the Technical Data, the measuring tool
will be switched off automatically after a short warning (see “Errors – causes
and corrective measures”, page 16). Allow the measuring tool to reach the
correct temperature and then switch it back on.
Measurement preparations
Setting the emissivity for surface temperature measurements To determine the
surface temperature, the tool performs a contactless measurement of the
natural infrared thermal radiation emitted by the object at which the tool is
aimed. To ensure correct measurement, the emissivity setting on the measuring
tool must be checked before every
measurement and adapted to the measuring object if necessary. The preset
emissivities in the measuring tool are reference values.
You can select one of the preset emissivity levels or enter an exact numerical
value. Set the required emissivity via the
- Correct temperature measurements are only possible if the set emissivity and emissivity of the object agree, and the correct reflected temperature is set.
Otherwise, object temperatures could be shown to be hotter or colder than they are, which may present a danger if touched.
The lower the emissivity, the greater the effect of the reflected temperature
on the measuring result. Always adjust the reflected temperature when changing
the emissivity. Set the reflected temperature via the
- Do not direct the laser beam at persons or animals and do not stare into the laser beam yourself (even from a distance).
Increasing the distance between the measuring tool and the object you are
measuring will increase the distance between the laser points and consequently
the size of the area measured. If the laser points are difficult to recognise,
you can switch on the
Information about the measuring conditions Highly reflective, shiny or
transparent surfaces (e.g. highgloss tiles, stainless steel cupboard fronts or
saucepans) may impair the surface temperature reading. If necessary, mask the
area to be measured with a dark, matt adhesive tape that conducts heat well.
Allow the tape to acclimatise
briefly on the surface.
It is not technically possible to perform measurements through transparent
materials.
Consequently, the more suitable and stable the measuring conditions are, the
more accurate and reliable the results of the measurement will be.
The humidity and ambient temperature sensor (5) can be damaged by chemical
contaminants, such as paint or varnish vapours. Infrared temperature
measurement is impaired by smoke, vapour or dusty air.
It is therefore important to ventilate the room prior to measuring, especially
when the air is contaminated or steamy. For example, do not perform
measurements in a bathroom immediately after the shower has been used.
Once ventilated, allow the room to reacclimatise a while until it returns to
the usual temperature.
The ambient temperature and relative humidity are measured directly on the
measuring tool at the humidity and ambient temperature sensor (5). To achieve
meaningful
results, do not hold the measuring tool directly over or next to sources of
interference such as radiators or open liquids. Do not cover the sensor (5)
under any circumstances.
Make sure that a favourable measuring angle is used on reflective surfaces in
order to ensure that the thermal radiation reflected by other objects does not
distort the result. For example, the reflection of your body heat may
interfere with the measurement when measuring head-on from a perpendicular
position.
Setting the zoom level
For ongoing measurements and when rendering saved screenshots, the image
detail on the display can be shown at 3 different zoom levels: 0.5 m, 2 m and
5 m.
The zoom levels are optimised for the corresponding distance between the
measuring tool and the object being measured. At a measuring distance of 2 m,
the zoom level
“2 m” renders the (typically) best image detail. The indicator for the current
zoom level (d) is shown on the display. To increase the zoom level, press the
“Zoom in”
(up) arrow button (16); to decrease the zoom level, press the “Zoom out”
(down) arrow button (13).
Due to the parallax, the measuring frame (b) only corresponds to the measuring
range if the selected zoom level corresponds to the actual measuring distance.
Illuminating the area you are measuring
When measuring in dark areas, you can switch on the light (24) to improve the
display of the screen content. This can help you to achieve a better result
when saving creenshots. Press the button (14) to switch the light (24) on or
off.
To save energy, the light switches off automatically when the brightness of
the display lighting is reduced. You can change how long the display stays lit
in the <Light
Duration> menu (see “
For energy saving reasons, the light is not available when the battery pack’s
state of charge is in the critical range.
Measuring functions
Switching Between Individual Modes Select the required mode with the right

explanation). To hide the explanation early, press the save button (9). To
hide the explanation and immediately start a measurement, press the measure
button (4).
Surface temperature mode Surface temperature mode is used to measure the
surface temperature of objects.
In this mode, you can, for example, check radiators or look for overheated
machine parts.
You start the measurement by pressing the measure button (4). The measured
values shown on the display are continuously being updated. As soon as you let
go of the measure button (4), the measurement is interrupted and the lasers
are switched off. On the display, the last measurement results are fixed on
the (n) indicator. The last
measured surface temperature is displayed with the marking (p) on the result
scale (k).
Once the difference between the measurements taken is more than 3 °C, the
minimum and maximum temperatures measured during the process will appear on
the display (j).
This enables you to tell how high the current measured value is in relation to
the temperatures already measured.
Thermal bridge mode
The measuring tool can support you in detecting thermal bridges (see “Thermal
bridge”, page 16). Before measurement can be started, the external temperature
must first be set. To do so, open the

tool.
Remove the micro USB cable during the measurement operation and close the
cover (1).
Always keep the flap of the USB port closed so that dust and splashes cannot
enter the housing.
Note: Use USB to connect the measuring tool to a computer only. The
measuring tool may be damaged if connected to other devices.
Data transfer via Bluetooth®
The measuring tool is equipped with a Bluetooth® module which enables the data
taken by your measuring tool to be wirelessly transmitted to a mobile device.
Special Bosch applications (apps) are available for this use. These can be
downloaded from the respective store of the device.
In addition to wireless data transfer, the Bosch applications make it possible
for you to use an extended range of functions and facilitate post-editing and
forwarding of
measured data (e.g. via e-mail). Information about system requirements for a
Bluetooth® connection can be found on the Bosch website at www.bosch-

< Reflected Temp.> (t)
Setting this parameter can improve the accuracy of the measuring result,
especially with low-emissivity (= high-reflection) materials. In some
situations (especially in indoor
areas), the reflected temperature corresponds to the ambient temperature. If
there are objects with greatly deviating temperatures close to highly
reflective objects, this
value should be adjusted as the measurement may be affected.
