Important safety instructions
Read, follow, and retain for future reference all of the following safety instructions. Heed all
warnings on the unit and in the operating instructions before operating the unit.
1.Cleaning - Unplug the unit from the outlet before cleaning. Follow any instructions
provided with the unit. Generally, using a dry cloth for cleaning is sufficient but a moist,
fluff-free cloth or leather shammy may also be used. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol
cleaners.
2.Water - Do not use this unit near water, for example near a bathtub, washbowl, sink,
laundry basket, in a damp or wet basement, near a swimming pool, in an outdoor
installation, or in any area classified as a wet location. To reduce the risk of fire or
electrical shock, do not expose this unit to rain or moisture.
3.Object and liquid entry - Never push objects of any kind into this unit through openings
as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire
or electrical shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the unit. Do not place objects filled
with liquids, such as vases or cups, on the unit.
4.Power cord and plug protection - Protect the plug and power cord from foot traffic,
being pinched by items placed upon or against them at electrical outlets, and its exit from
the unit. For units intended to operate with 230 VAC, 50 Hz, the input and output power
cord must comply with the latest versions of IEC Publication 227 or IEC Publication 245.
5.Power disconnect - Units have power supplied to the unit whenever the power cord is
inserted into the power source. The power cord plug is the main power disconnect device
for switching off the voltage for all units.

6.Power sources - Operate the unit only from the type of power source indicated on the
label. Before proceeding, be sure to disconnect the power from the cable to be installed
into the unit.
–For battery powered units, refer to the operating instructions.
–For external power supplied units, use only the recommended or approved power
supplies.
–For limited power source units, this power source must comply with EN60950.
Substitutions may damage the unit or cause fire or shock.
–For 24 VAC units, voltage applied to the unit's power input should not exceed ±10%,
or 28 VAC. User-supplied wiring must comply with local electrical codes (Class 2
power levels). Do not ground the supply at the terminals or at the unit's power
supply terminals.
–If unsure of the type of power supply to use, contact your dealer or local power
company.
7.Servicing - Do not attempt to service this unit yourself. Opening or removing covers may
expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
8.Damage requiring service - Unplug the unit from the main AC power source and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel when any damage to the equipment has occurred,
such as:
–the power supply cord or plug is damaged;
–exposure to moisture, water, and/or inclement weather (rain, snow, etc.);
–liquid has been spilled in or on the equipment;
–an object has fallen into the unit;
–unit has been dropped or the unit cabinet is damaged;
–unit exhibits a distinct change in performance;
–unit does not operate normally when the user correctly follows the operating
instructions.
9.Replacement parts - Be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified by
the manufacturer, or that have the same characteristics as the original parts.
Unauthorized substitutions may cause fire, electrical shock, or other hazards.
10. Safety check - Safety checks should be performed upon completion of service or repairs
to the unit to ensure proper operating condition.
11. Installation - Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and in accordance
with applicable local codes.
12. Attachments, changes or modifications - Only use attachments/accessories specified by
the manufacturer. Any change or modification of the equipment, not expressly approved
by Bosch, could void the warranty or, in the case of an authorization agreement, authority
to operate the equipment.
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.

Disposal - Your Bosch product was developed and manufactured with high-
quality material and components that can be recycled and reused. This symbol
means that electronic and electrical appliances, which have reached the end of
their working life, must be collected and disposed of separately from
household waste material. Separate collecting systems are usually in place for
disused electronic and electrical products. Please dispose of these units at an
environmentally compatible recycling facility, per European Directive
2002/96/EC
Environmental statement - Bosch has a strong commitment towards the environment. This
unit has been designed to respect the environment as much as possible.
Power lines: An outdoor system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines,
electrical lights, or power circuits, or where it may contact such power lines or circuits. When
installing an outdoor system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching power lines
or circuits, as this contact may be fatal. U.S.A. models only - refer to the National Electrical
Code Article 820 regarding installation of CATV systems.
SELV - All the input/output ports are Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) circuits. SELV circuits
should only be connected to other SELV circuits.
Because the ISDN circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage, avoid connecting the
SELV circuit to the Telephone Network Voltage (TNV) circuits.
System ground/Safety ground
1.4
System (video) ground is indicated by the symbol
Safety (power) ground is indicated by the symbol .
The system ground is only used to comply with safety standards or installation practices in
certain countries. Bosch does not recommend connecting system ground to safety ground
unless it is explicitly required. However, if the system ground and safety ground are connected
and grounding loops are causing interference in the video signal, use an isolation transformer
(available separately from Bosch).
Caution!
Connecting System ground to Safety ground may result in ground loops that can disrupt the
CCTV system.
