This measuring tool has a built-in laser light. The laser is a Class2 and emits output
power of a maximum 1mW and 635 wavelengths. These lasers do not normally present
an optical hazard.
However, do not look directly into the beam as this can cause flash blindness.
• Do not remove or modify any of the product labels.
• The digital laser distance meter is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children at all
times. The laser light generated by this device should never be directed towards any
person under any circumstances.
• Do not use the device in the presence of children or allow children to operate the
device.
• Do not position the device in such a way that can result in a person staring into the
laser beam intentionally or by accident.
• Do not use the device on shiny or reflective surfaces such as sheet steel. The reflec-
tive surface could direct the beam back towards the operator.
• Always switch off the Digi Dist unit when it is not in use. If it is left switched on, it
increases the risk of someone inadvertently staring into the laser beam.
• Do not attempt to repair or disassemble the laser distance meter. If repairs are
attempted by unqualified personnel, it could result in serious injury. Any repair work
required on this laser meter should only be conducted by customer service stations
that are authorised by STORCH.
• Do not operate the device in combustible areas, for example, in the vicinity of flam-
mable liquids, gases, or dust.
• Use of accessories that have been designed for other laser devices could result in
serious injury.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
The following label can be found on your laser distance
meter:
This indicates the location from which the digital laser
distance meter emits the laser light. You should be familiar
with the location of the laser when using this device. Make
sure that all persons present are aware of the risks that are
associated with direct eye contact with the laser beam.
