A) Only non-conductive deposits occur, whereby occasional temporary
conductivity caused by condensation is expected.
B) Due to the lower voltage of the rechargeable batteries, the battery
indicator will not display a full charge.
The serial number (2) on the type plate is used to clearly identify your
measuring tool.
Assembly
Inserting/Replacing Batteries
It is recommended that you use alkaline manganese or re-
chargeable batteries to operate the measuring tool.
To open the battery compartment cover (3), press the locking
mechanism (4) and fold the battery compartment cover up. In-
sert the batteries/rechargeable batteries.
When doing so, ensure that the polarity is correct and corres-
ponds to the diagram on the battery compartment cover.
Battery Indicator
The battery indicator (f) always indicates the current battery
status:
Indic- Capacity
ator
90–100 %
60–90 %
30–60 %
10–30 %
0–10 %
The empty battery indicator flashes. You can measure
for approximately another 15–20 min from when the
flashing begins until the tool shuts down.
Always replace all the batteries at the same time. Only use bat-
teries from the same manufacturer and which have the same ca-
pacity.
Take the batteries out of the measuring tool when you are
u
not using it for a prolonged period of time. The batteries
can corrode and self-discharge during prolonged storage in
the measuring tool.
Operation

Starting Operation

Protect the measuring tool from moisture and direct sun-
u
light.
Do not expose the measuring tool to any extreme temper-
u
atures or variations in temperature. For example, do not
leave it in a car for extended periods of time. In case of large
variations in temperature, allow the measuring tool to adjust
to the ambient temperature before putting it into operation.
The precision of the measuring tool may be compromised if
exposed to extreme temperatures or variations in temperat-
ure.
Keep the supporting surfaces and contact edges of the
u
measuring tool clean. Protect the measuring tool against
shock and impact. Dirt particles or deformations can lead to
faulty measurements.
Avoid hard knocks to the measuring tool or dropping it.
u
Always carry out an accuracy check before continuing work if
the measuring tool has been subjected to severe external in-
fluences (see "Accuracy Check and Calibration of the Measur-
ing Tool", page 15).
Switching On and Off
To switch the measuring tool on or off, press the on/off
button (9).
If no button on the measuring tool is pressed for approx. 30 min
or the grade of the measuring tool is not changed by more than
1.5°, then grade measurement and the display are automatically
switched off to save the batteries.
Changing the Measuring Unit (see figure A)
You can change between the units of measure "°", "%" and "mm/
m" at any time. For this, press the button for changing the unit of
measure (8) as many times as needed for the required unit of
measure to be displayed in the indicator (c) or (b). The current
measured value (e) will be automatically converted.
The unit-of-measure setting is retained when switching the
measuring tool on or off.
