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.
Switching On and Off
 Before switching the measuring tool on, make sure that the sensor
area 5 is not moist. If required, dry the measuring tool using a soft cloth.
To switch on the measuring tool, press the On/Off button 4.
After a brief self-check, the measuring tool is ready for operation. The
operational readiness is indicated by a check mark behind the "AutoCal"
calibration indicator d.
To switch the measuring tool off, press the On/Off button 4.
When no measurement is taken for approx. 10 minutes, the measuring
tool automatically switches off to save the battery.
 Before drilling, sawing or routing into a wall, protect yourself
against hazards by using other information sources. As the measur-
ing results can be influenced through ambient conditions or the wall
material, there may be a hazard even though the indicator does not
indicate an object in the sensor range (illuminated ring 1 lit green).

Operating Modes

The measuring tool detects objects below the sensor area 5.
