First gear:
Low speed range; for working with a large drilling diameter
or for screwdriving.
Second gear:
High speed range; for working with a small drilling diameter.
Always push the gear selector switch as far as it will
u
go. Otherwise, the power tool may become damaged.
Rapid Shut-off (KickBack Control)
The rapid shut-off function (KickBack Con-
trol) gives the user greater control over the
power tool and offers them better protec-
tion than power tools that do not have Kick-
Back Control. The power tool will switch off if it suddenly
and unforeseeably rotates around the drilling axis.
The rapid shut-off is indicated by the LED (22) flashing red,
a flashing light from the worklight (13) and the LED of the
KickBack Control (23) lighting up red on the power tool.
To switch the tool back on, release the on/off switch and
then press it again.
It will no longer be possible to switch the power tool
u
on if the KickBack Control function is faulty. Have the
power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using
only original replacement parts.
The rapid shut-off function can be deactivated on the user
interface (14) with the button (24). If the power tool is not
used for longer than 5 minutes or if the rechargeable battery
is removed, the rapid shut-off function automatically
switches back on. The current status is shown via the LED
for KickBack Control (23) on the user interface (14).
Please note that the warning light is not visible from all direc-
tions. The warning light is difficult to see in bright sunlight.
Electronic Angle Detection (EAD)
With electronic angle detection (EAD), a slope angle can be
preselected that the power tool detects during work and dis-
plays to the user. This means it is possible to drill or screw at
right angles in a sloped surface, for example. Electronic

angle detection (EAD) is controlled via the user
interface (14).
Select an angle (45°, 60°, user-defined) on the user
interface (14). Note: The user-defined angle in the factory
settings is 90°. This angle can be adjusted via the Bosch app.
To adjust the angle, press the button for the electronic angle
detection (EAD) (20) until the LED of the required slope
angle (21) starts flashing.
In addition to the LED of the required slope angle (21), the
LED of the electronic angle detection (EAD) (9) also starts to
flash yellow. Now position the power tool on the required
surface and hold it as still as possible. Note: If the power tool
is not held still during the initiating process, the initiating
process will automatically end after 10 seconds and the last
set value is restored.
The power tool will start the initiating process once it is posi-
tioned. The required surface is taught in during the initiating
process. The initiating process is complete when the LED of
the electronic angle detection (EAD) (9) lights up green for
approx. 1 second and then goes out, and the LED of the
slope angle (21) lights up continuously.
Remove the power tool from the surface. Align the power
tool with the taught-in surface in the required slope angle.
The LED (22) lights up yellow if the slope angle lies in the
range +/-10° from the preset slope angle.
If a slope angle within +/– 3° of the preset slope angle is
reached, the LED (9) lights up green. To end the electronic
angle detection (EAD), press the button for the electronic
angle detection (EAD) (20) until none of the LEDs for angle
selection (21) are lit up (45° → 60° → User-defined → Off).
The set angle and reference surface are saved even when
changing the rechargeable battery or when waking up the
power tool from sleep mode.
User Interface (see figure D)
The user interface (14) is used to set and check a slope
angle as part of the electronic angle detection (EAD), to de-
activate the rapid shut-off (KickBack Control) and to indicate
the status of the power tool.
Meaning/cause
Selected angle is reached with a tolerance of +/– 3° to the taught-in surface
