User Interface
The user interface (9) is used to:
- Display the tape length outside the power tool see Displaying the Tape Length Outside the Power Tool
- Display the status of the power tool see Status Indicators
- Set the working mode see Setting Working Mode
- Help with tape replacement see Replacing the tape (see figures I-N)
Displaying the Tape Length Outside the Power Tool
The display (17) shows how long the tape (2) protrudes from the power tool (during feeding and retracting).
Note: To ensure counting accuracy, it is recommended that the tape be retracted completely before starting a new job. This resets the automatic stop to zero.
Status Indicators
The following table describes the status indicators on the user interface (9).
Power tool status indicator (16) | Indicator in the display (17) | Meaning/cause | Solution |

If the problem persists, check the conduit layout. This may require disconnecting the conduit sections to remove the tape (2) and cable. | ||
Motor stalls or insufficient battery power | Charge the battery or use the recommended battery type. | ||
General error | Switch the power tool off and on again or remove the rechargeable battery and reinsert it. If the error persists, send the power tool to an authorised after-sales service centre for Bosch-power tools. |
