Inserting/Replacing the Batteries

Using alkali-manganese or rechargeable batteries is recommended for operation of
the measuring tool.
With 1.2-V-rechargeable batteries fewer measurements could be possible than with
1.5-V-batteries.
To open the battery lid 9, press the latch 10 and remove the battery lid. Insert the bat-
teries/rechargeable batteries. When inserting, pay attention to the correct polarity
according to the representation on the inside of the battery compartment.
When the empty battery symbol appears on the display, then approx. 100 measure-
ments are still possible. When the battery symbol is empty and flashes red, no further
measurements are possible. Change the batteries or rechargeable batteries.
Always replace all batteries/rechargeable batteries at the same time. Do not use dif-
ferent brands or types of batteries/rechargeable batteries together.
Remove the batteries/rechargeable batteries from the measuring tool when
not using it for longer periods. When storing for longer periods, the batteries/re-
chargeable batteries can corrode and self-discharge.
Operation

Initial Operation

Do not leave the switched-on measuring tool unattended and switch the mea-
suring 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 variations in
temperature. As an example, do not leave it in vehicles for a long time. In case of
large variations in temperature, allow the measuring tool to adjust to the ambient
temperature before putting it into operation. 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. After severe exte-
rior effects to the measuring tool, it is recommended to carry out an accuracy
check (see "Accuracy Check of the Distance Measurement", page 43) each time
before continuing to work.
