Automatic Shut-Off
If no button on the measuring tool is pressed for approx.
120 min., the measuring tool will automatically switch itself
off to preserve battery life.
To switch the measuring tool back on after it has been auto-
matically switched off, you can either slide the on/off
switch (8) to the "Off" position first and then switch the
measuring tool back on, or press either the laser point mode
button (4) or the laser line mode button (5).
Temporarily Deactivating Automatic Shut-Off
To deactivate the automatic shut-off function, hold down the
laser line mode button (5) for at least 3 s (with the measur-
ing tool switched on). If the automatic shut-off function is
deactivated, the laser beams will flash briefly as confirma-
tion.
Note: If the operating temperature exceeds 45 °C, automatic
shut-off can no longer be deactivated.
To activate the automatic shut-off function, switch the meas-
uring tool off and on again.
