3. Press F4 (QUIT) or F3 (MENU) if you change your mind.
4. The meter will automatically return to the measurement

screen with new options available for the function keys.

5. Proceed to make measurements as normal. To initiate

making a spatially-averaged measurement that will be

logged, hold the meter in one hand and the probe in

the other with the head of the probe touching the

ground.

6. Press F1 (START) while slowly moving the probe

vertically at a constant rate of movement. Keep your

finger on the F1 key during this operation.

7. Strive for an interval of about ten seconds between

starting and stopping the timer. The displayed value

will flash and the audio signal will sound every second

as a timing aid.

8. When the probe reaches the height equal to the top of

an adult's head (about 6 ft./1.9 m), press F1 again

(STOP).
