Inserting/Replacing the Batteries

Alkali-manganese batteries are recommended for the measuring tool.
To open the battery lid 4, press the latch 5 in the direction of the arrow
and remove the battery lid. Insert the batteries. When inserting, pay at-
tention to the correct polarity according to the representation on the in-
side 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.
Replace all batteries at the same time. Only use same-brand batteries
with the identical battery capacity.
 Remove the batteries from the measuring tool when not using it
for extended periods. When storing for extended periods, the batter-
ies can corrode and self-discharge.
Operation

Initial Operation

 Do not leave the switched-on measuring tool unattended and
switch the measuring tool off after use. Other persons could be
blinded by the laser beam.
 Protect the measuring tool against moisture and direct sun light.
 Do not subject the measuring tool to extreme temperatures or var-
iations in temperature. As an example, do not leave it in vehicles for
a long time. In case of large variations in temperature, allow the meas-
uring tool to adjust to the ambient temperature before putting it into
operation. In case of extreme temperatures or variations in tempera-
ture, the accuracy of the measuring tool can be impaired.
 Avoid heavy impact to or falling down of the measuring tool. After
severe exterior effects to the measuring tool, it is recommended to car-
ry out a check (see "Checking the Measuring Tool", page 22) each time
before continuing to work.
