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.
Detecting Metal Objects
After switching on, the illuminated ring 1 lights up green.
