6. First use

Before using the device, you need to stick the laser warning (included in the

package) on the device:

•

Refer to the safety instructions above before using the device.

•

Make sure the device does not contain any batteries.

•

The sticker is available in various languages. Put the sticker in your

language on the device.

•

When done, insert batteries (see section Battery below).

7. Measuring conditions

Measuring range
•

The measuring range is limited to 50m.

•

In dark environments or at night this range may increase.

•

In very light environments or when a surface has very poor reflective

properties, use a target plate.

Target surfaces
•

Measuring errors will occur when pointing at colourless liquids (e.g.

water) or glass, Styrofoam or similar semi-transparent surfaces.

•

Aiming at very shiny objects will deflect the laser beam which will lead

to errors.

•

Measuring towards non-reflective dark surfaces may increase the

measuring time.

•

Do not aim the meter directly into the sun or other bright light source.

8. General functions

Refer to the illustrations on pages 2 and 3 of this manual.

•

Make sure batteries are present inside the device (see section Battery

below).
