detection depth and accuracy.
Assembly

Inserting/Replacing the Battery

Alkali-manganese batteries are recommended for the measuring tool.
To open the battery lid 5, press the latch 6 in the direction of the arrow
and fold the battery lid downward. Insert the battery provided. Pay atten-
tion that the polarity is correct.
When the battery low indicator a lights up on the display, measurements
can still be taken for approx. 1 h. When the battery low indicator a flashes,
measuring is possible for approx. 10 minutes. When the signal LED 2
flashes red in addition to the battery low indicator, measuring is no longer
possible and the battery must be replaced.
If the measuring tool is not used for a long period of time, the bat-
tery must be removed. The battery can corrode or discharge itself
over long periods.
Operation

Initial Operation

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
long time. In case of large variations in temperature, allow the measur-
ing tool to adjust to the ambient temperature before putting it into op-
eration. In case of extreme temperatures or variations in temperature,
the accuracy of the measuring tool can be impaired.
Avoid heavy impact to or falling down of the measuring tool.
