A) For measurements from the front edge of the measuring tool, applies to high
reflectivity of the target (e.g. a white-painted wall), weak backlighting and 25°C
operating temperature. In addition, a deviation of ±0,05mm/m must be taken
into account.
B) For measurements from the rear edge of the measuring tool, applies to low
reflectivity of the target (e.g. a dark-painted wall), strong backlighting and – 10°C
to +45°C operating temperature. In addition, a deviation of ±0.15 mm/m must be
taken into account.
C) After calibration at 0° and 90° with an additional pitch error of max. ±0.01°/
degrees up to 45°. The measurement accuracy is related to the 3 orientations
based on the calibration of the inclination (tilt measurement), see picture H.
D) At 25°C operating temperature.
E) In the continuous measurement function, the maximum operating temperature
is +40°C.
F) When using Bluetooth® Low Energy tools, it may not be possible to establish a

Assembly
Inserting/Replacing the Batteries
AA alkaline batteries are recommended for the measuring tool.
To open the battery lid, press the latch in the direction of the
arrow and remove the battery lid. Insert the batteries. When
inserting, pay attention to the correct polarity according to the
representation on the inside of the battery compartment.
When the battery symbol appears for the first time on the
display, measurements are still possible for approx. 15 minutes.
When the battery symbol flashes, the batteries must be
replaced; measurements are no longer possible.
Always replace all batteries at the same
time. Only use batteries from one
brand and with the identical capacity.
Remove the batteries from the tool when not using it for
extended periods. When storing for extended periods, the
batteries can corrode and discharge themselves.
Operation
Protect the tool against moisture and
direct sun irradiation.
Do not subject the tool to extreme temperatures or
variations in temperature. As an example, do not leave
it in vehicles for longer periods. In case of large variations
in temperature, allow the tool to adjust to the ambient
temperature before putting it into operation. In case of extreme
temperatures or variations in temperature, the accuracy of the
tool can be impaired.
Avoid heavy impact or falling of the tool.
After heavy exterior
impact on the tool, an accuracy check should always be
carried out before continuing to work (see “Accuracy Check of
the Distance Measurement”, page 36).
DO NOT stare directly at the laser beam
or project the laser beam directly into
the eyes of others. Serious eye injury could result.

To initiate the measurement, briefly press the measuring
button 2 [ ]. Then the laser beam is switched off. For a
further measurement, repeat this process.
With the laser beam continuously switched on and in the the
continuous measurement function, measurement will begin
after the measuring button 2 [ ] is pressed for the first time.
Do not point the laser beam at persons or animals and
do not look into the laser beam yourself, not even from a
large distance.
Note: The measured value typically appears within 0.5 s and
no later than approx. 4 s. The duration of the measurement
depends on the distance, the lighting conditions and the
reflective properties of the target surface. Upon completion of
the measurement, the laser beam is automatically switched
off. The continuously switched-on laser beam is not switched
off after the measurement (see “Continuous Laser Beam”,
page 23).
Selecting the Reference Level (see figure A)
You can choose between four different reference levels for
the measurement:
– the rear measuring-tool edge (e.g. when measuring onward
from a wall),
– the tip of the 180° folded-out measuring pin 8 (e.g. when
measuring from a corner),
– the front measuring-tool edge (e.g. when measuring
onward from a table edge),
– the center of thread 17 (e.g. for tripod measurements).
Folding out and in of the measuring pin 8 by 180° is detected
automatically and the appropriate reference level is
suggested. Confirm the setting by pressing the measuring
button 2 [ ].
Use the soft key 3 [ ] to select the basic settings for the
measuring tool. Use buttons 4 [+] or 11 [–] to select the
reference level and confirm this by pressing button 13 [Func].
The rear edge of the measuring tool is automatically preset
as the reference level every time the measuring tool is
switched on.

Indirect Distance Measurement
Select the indirect distance measurement .
There are four measuring functions available for the indirect
distance measurement, each of which is capable of determining
different distances.
The indirect distance measurement is used to measure distances
that cannot be measured directly because an obstacle would
obstruct the laser beam or no target surface is available as a
reflector. This measuring procedure can only be used in vertical
direction. Any deviation in horizontal direction leads to measuring
errors.
Note: Indirect distance measurement is always less accurate
2610049010 10-17 GLM400C.indd 28 11/3/17 1:09 PM

than direct distance measurement. Depending on application,
greater measuring errors are possible than with direct distance
measurement. To improve the measuring accuracy, we recommend
using a tripod (accessory).
The laser beam remains switched on between the individual
measurements.
a) Indirect height measurement (see figure B)
Select the indirect height measurement .

Now measure the length L2 of the second wall. The individual
measured value displayed in the measured-value line h is
added to the length L1. The sum of the two lengths (displayed
in the bottom measured-value line h) is multiplied by the saved
height H. The total surface value is displayed in the result
line a.
You can measure any number of lengths LX, which will be
automatically added and multiplied by the height H.
The requirement for a correct area calculation is that the first
measured length (for example the ceiling height H) is identical
for all sub-areas.
Stake out function (see figure G)
The stake out function repeatedly measures a defined length
(distance). These lengths can be transferred to a surface,
for example to enable material to be cut into pieces of equal
lengths or to install stud walls in a drywall construction. The
minimum adjustable length is 3.2 ft (0,1m), the maximum
adjustable length is 164 ft (50m).
Select the stake out function .

Bluetooth® Interface
Data Transmission to other Devices
The measuring tool is equipped with a Bluetooth® module,
which enables data transmission via radio technology to
certain mobile terminals/devices with a Bluetooth® interface
(e.g., smartphones, tablets).
For information on the necessary system requirements for a
Bluetooth® connection, please refer to the Bosch website at
www.bosch-pt.com
Further information can be found on the Bosch product
page.
For data transmission via Bluetooth®, time delays between
mobile terminal/device and measuring tool may occur. This
can be possible due to the distance between both devices or
the object being measured.
Activating the Bluetooth® Interface for Data Transmission
to a Mobile Terminal/Device
The Bluetooth® interface is activated in the basic settings. To
activate the Bluetooth® signal, press button 4 [+]. Ensure that
the Bluetooth® interface is activated on your mobile end device.
The special Bosch “Measuring Master” app is available to
extend the range of functions of the mobile end device and to
make data easier to process. You can download this from the
store for your end device type.
The connection between mobile terminal/device and
measuring tool is established after the Bosch application has
started. If multiple active measuring tools are found, select the
appropriate measuring tool using the serial number.
The connection status, as well as the active connection (f), are
shown in the display 1 of the measuring tool.
Deactivating the Bluetooth® Interface
The Bluetooth® connection is deactivated in the basic settings.
To deactivate the Bluetooth® signal, press button 11 [–] or
switch off the measuring tool.

Working Advice
Further information can be found on the Bosch product
page.
The measuring tool is equipped with a radio interface.
Local operating restrictions, e.g. in airplanes or hospitals,
are to be observed.
General Information
The reception lens 20, the laser beam output 18 and the digital
viewfinder 19 must not be covered during measurement.
The measuring tool must not be moved while taking a
measurement. Therefore, place the measuring tool, as far as
this is possible, against or on a firm stop or supporting surface.
Influence Effects on the Measuring Range
The measuring range depends on the lighting conditions
and the reflective properties of the target surface. For better
visibility of the laser beam in strong extraneous light, use the
integrated digital viewfinder 19, the laser viewing glasses 26
(accessory) and the laser target plate 25 (accessory) or shade
the target area.
Influence Effects on the Measuring Result
Due to physical effects, faulty measurements cannot be
excluded when measuring on different surfaces. Included here
are:
– Transparent surfaces (e.g., glass, water),
– Reflecting surfaces (e.g., polished metal, glass),
– Porous surfaces (e.g. insulation materials),
– Structured surfaces (e.g., roughcast, natural stone).
If required, use the laser target plate 25 (accessory) on these
surfaces.
Furthermore, faulty measurements are also possible when
sighting inclined target surfaces.
Also, air layers with varying temperatures or indirectly received
reflections can affect the measured value.
2610049010 10-17 GLM400C.indd 35 11/3/17 1:09 PM
36
Accuracy Check and Calibration of the Grade Measurement
(see figure H)
Regularly check the accuracy of the grade measurement. This
is done by carrying out a reversal measurement. For this, place
the measuring tool on a table and measure the grade.
Turn the measuring tool by 180° and measure the grade again.
The difference of the indicated reading may not exceed by
more than 0.3° (max.).
In the event of larger deviations, you have to recalibrate the
measuring tool. For this, select
CAL
. Follow the instructions on
the display.
After severe temperature changes and impact, we recommend
an accuracy check and, if required, to recalibrate the measuring
tool. After a temperature change, the measuring tool must
acclimate for a while before calibrating.
Accuracy Check of the Distance Measurement
The accuracy of the measuring tool can be checked as follows:
– Select a permanently unchangeable measuring section
which is approx. 9.8 to 32 ft (3 to 10 m) long and which you
know the exact length of (e.g. room width, door opening).
The measurement should be performed under favorable
conditions, i.e. the measuring section should be indoors with
weak backlighting and the target area of the measurement
should be smooth and reflect well (e.g. a white-painted wall).
– Measure the distance 10 times in succession.
The deviation of the individual measurements from the
average value must not exceed ±.07 in (±2 mm) over the
entire measuring section in favorable conditions. Record the
measurements in order to be able to compare the accuracy
at a later date.
2610049010 10-17 GLM400C.indd 36 11/3/17 1:09 PM
37
Checking accuracy and calibrating the target indicator
(crosshair)
Check the accuracy of the alignment of the laser and target
indicator on a regular basis.
– Select a bright area at least 10 m away with as little
illumination as possible as the target.
– Check whether the laser point is inside the target indicator
in the display.
If the laser point is not inside the target indicator, you must
recalibrate the target indicator.
Working with the Tripod (Accessory)
The use of a tripod is particularly necessary for larger distances.
Position the measuring tool with the 1/4” thread 17 onto the
quick-change plate of the tripod 27 or a commercially available
camera tripod. Tighten the measuring tool with the locking
screw of the quick-change plate.
Set the reference level for measurements with a tripod in the
basic settings or by pressing button 3 (thread reference level).
