Operation

Your digital laser distance meter is a precision instrument. Please observe the following
guidelines to ensure optimum performance:
• Do not direct the Digi Dist unit towards the sun or other sources of bright light. This
may cause a faulty reading or result in inaccurate measurements.
• Do not operate the device in wet, dusty, sandy or other adverse environments. Such
conditions may damage internal components and impair the accuracy of the mea-
surement.
• If the digital laser distance meter is transferred to a warm environment from very
cold conditions, or vice versa, allow it to acclimatise before use.
• Measuring errors can occur when conducting measurements against transparent
liquids (e.g. water), clear objects (glass) or other similar translucent or low-density
materials.
• Highly reflective surfaces deflect the laser beam and result in faulty measurements.
• Extremely bright surroundings combined with a poorly reflective surface will reduce
the measuring range and accuracy of the device.
• Do not immerse the device in water. Wipe off any dirt using a damp, soft cloth. Do
not use abrasive cleaning agents or solutions. Treat the surfaces of the device with
the same care that you would apply to spectacle lenses or cameras.
• The accuracy of the device must be checked if it has been dropped or subjected to
other mechanical stresses.
