Camera signal - Protect the cable with a primary protector if the camera signal is beyond 140
feet, in accordance with NEC800 (CEC Section 60).
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.
Electronic Surveillance - This unit is intended for use in public areas only. U.S. federal law
strictly prohibits surreptitious recording of oral communications.
Environmental statement - Bosch has a strong commitment towards the environment. This
unit has been designed to respect the environment as much as possible.
Electrostatic-sensitive device - Use proper CMOS/MOS-FET handling precautions to avoid
electrostatic discharge. NOTE: Wear required grounded wrist straps and observe proper ESD
safety precautions when handling the electrostatic-sensitive printed circuit boards.
Fuse rating - For protection of the unit, the branch circuit protection must be secured with a
maximum fuse rating of 16A. This must be in accordance with NEC800 (CEC Section 60).
Grounding - For mounting the unit in potentially damp environments, ensure to ground the
system using the ground connection of the power supply connector (see section: Connecting
external power supply).
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.
Grounding and polarization - This unit may be equipped with a polarized alternating current
line plug (a plug with one blade wider than the other blade). This safety feature allows the
plug to fit into the power outlet in only one way. If unable to insert the plug fully into the
outlet, contact a locally certified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug.
Alternately, this unit may be equipped with a 3-pole grounding plug (a plug with a third pin for
earth grounding). This safety feature allows the plug to fit into a grounded power outlet only.
If unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact a locally certified electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding plug.
Moving - Disconnect the power before moving the unit. Move the unit with care. Excessive
force or shock may damage the unit and the hard disk drives.
Outdoor signals - The installation for outdoor signals, especially regarding clearance from
power and lightning conductors and transient protection, must be in accordance with NEC725
and NEC800 (CEC Rule 16-224 and CEC Section 60).
Permanently connected equipment - Incorporate a readily accessible disconnect device
external to the equipment.
