INSTALLATION AND SETUP
Before you start
Ensure that you have a Bosch Smart Home Controller and the Bosch Smart Home App, and that you have set both of them up successfully.
You can also use the explanatory video on our website to help you install your Bosch Smart Home Motion Detector more easily: www.bosch-smarthome.com/installation
Separating the housing and fixing bracket

- Separate the Motion Detector’s housing from the mounting bracket. To do so, use a screwdriver to twist the turn lock on the underside of the
- Motion Detector counterclockwise by 180°, and simultaneously pull away the housing from the mounting bracket.
Starting the app and scanning the QR cod
Now start the Bosch Smart Home App and select “Add device”.
From this point, the app guides you through the installation process. You will find a detailed description in this instruction manual.
The app will prompt you to scan the QR code on the product. You will find the QR code on the back of the housing (see p.15).
Inserting the battery compartment
Insert the battery compartment from above into the Motion Detector’s housing. The LED will start to flash orange.
A battery is included in the scope of delivery. In order to double the service life, you can also insert a second battery into the battery com-partment. To do so, remove the placeholder from the battery compartment.
Configuring the device
As soon as the battery is inserted, the Motion Detector connects to the Controller. The Motion Detector’s LED indicates the status of the configura-tion attempt using the following flash codes:
The app informs you if the configura-tion was successful.
| LED state | Explanation |
| Flashes green once | Successful configuration attempt |
| Flashes red | Unsuccessful configuration attempt |
FIXING
Fixing instructions
Prevailing regulations must be observed when installing the product. Failure to comply with the regulations can lead to material damage and/or physical injury.
- Check that the scope of delivery is intact. Only install parts that are in immaculate condition
- Observe the instructions regarding the installation location
- Pay attention to the direction of movement when installing (lateral motion detection)
- You can find more information in the online FAQs at: www.bosch-smarthome.com/faq
Observe the following mounting instructions: 
- Mount the Motion Detector at a height of minimum 2.20 m to maximum 2.70 m, as desired
- The product has a detection range of 90° and 12 m
- In addition the sneak-by guard can be activated

- There must not be any windows in the detection area of the Motion Detector
- Avoid direct or indirect sunlight in the detection area of the Motion Detector
- Do not block the detection area with objects
- Do not install the Motion Detector near rotating objects (e.g. fans) or independently moving objects
- Do not install the near sources of heat or cold
Do not place any objects on which pets can climb in the detection area
- Place the Motion Detector in the part of the room which is most frequently walked through (e.g. near the door)
Take the Motion Detector to your chosen mounting location. Before mounting, use the app to perform a communication test in order to check the signal strength.
- The connection with the Bosch Smart Home Controller needs to be sufficiently strong (you can perform a communication test using the app)
Choosing the type of fixing
The Motion Detector can be mounted in a corner or on a straight wall. In both cases, you can either mount the device with screws or with adhesive tape.
The device’s theft protection function can only be guaranteed if the Motion Detector is installed with screws.
If the Motion Detector is forcibly removed, the theft protection remains on the wall and emits a signal.
Corner fixing with screws
- Punch through the four pre-punched screw holes in the Motion Detector’s mounting bracket.
- Hold the mounting bracket against the desired position on the wall and mark the drill holes.
When choosing a fixing location and when drilling, pay attention to potential electrical lines and/or supply lines that could be behind the wall.
Mount the Motion Detector with screws and plugs.
Corner fixing with adhesive tape
When fixing the Motion Detector with adhesive strips, the theft protection function cannot be guaranteed.
- Attach the adhesive tapes to the beveled surfaces of the Motion Detector’s mounting bracket and peel off the second protective film.
Place the Motion Detector in the de-sired position and press it down firmly.
Wall fixing with screws
- Punch through the three pre-punched screw holes in the Motion Detector’s mounting bracket.
- Hold the mounting bracket against the desired position on the wall and mark the drill holes.
When choosing a fixing location and when drilling, pay attention to potential electrical lines and/or supply lines that could be behind the wall.

Fix the Motion Detector using screws and plugs.
Wall fixing with adhesive tape
When attaching the Motion Detector with adhesive strips, the theft protec-tion function cannot be guaranteed. 
- Attach the adhesive tapes to the back of the Motion Detector’s mounting bracket and peel off the second protective film.

- Place the Motion Detector in the de-sired position and press it down firmly.
Selecting pet immunity or sneak-by guard Set the desired sensitivity level on the Motion Detector. When doing so, you can choose between the pet immunity and sneak-by guard functions. Upon delivery, the product is set to pet immunity with the rotary switch on the rear side of the housing turned to the left. For the sneak-by guard, turn the rotary switch to the right.
If pet immunity is activated, small ani-mals (< 25 kg) ignored by the Motion Detector’s front sensor. The sensor directed downwards is then switched off. When pet immunity is activated, the sneak-by guard is deactivated.
When pet immunity is switched off, the sneak-by guard is activated, making it also possible to detect people who are beneath the Motion Detector. As a result, there is a possible risk of false alarms if you have pets.
Inserting the Motion Detector into the mounting bracket
Insert the Motion Detector into the mounting bracket from the bottom up until you hear it click into place.
