5.3 Electromagnetic compatibility

Although the tool complies with the strict requirements of
the applicable directives, Hilti cannot entirely rule out the
possibility of the tool being subject to interference caused
by powerful electromagnetic radiation, leading to incorrect
operation. Check the accuracy of the tool by taking mea-
surements by other means when working under such con-
ditions or if you are unsure. Likewise, Hilti cannot rule out
the possibility of interference with other devices (e.g. air-
craft navigation equipment). The tool complies with the
requirements of class A; The possibility of interference
occurring in a domestic environment cannot be excluded.

stresses.
c) Although the tool is designed for the tough conditions
of jobsite use, as with other measuring instruments it
