Electromagnetic compatibility

Although the product complies with the strict requirements of the applicable directives, Hilti cannot entirely
rule out the possibility of interference to the product caused by powerful electromagnetic radiation, possibly
leading to incorrect operation. Check the accuracy of the device by taking measurements by other means
when working under such conditions, or if you are unsure. Likewise, Hilti cannot rule out the possibility
of interference with other devices (e.g. aircraft navigation equipment). The product complies with the
requirements of class A; the possibility of interference in a residential environment cannot be excluded.
Only for Korea: This laser range meter is suitable for commercial and industrial use and for the electromagnetic
radiation encountered in this field (Class A). The user must be aware of this and shall not use this laser range
meter in residential environments.
