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 6 is not moist. If required, dry the measuring tool using a soft
cloth.
To switch on the measuring tool, slide the On/Off switch 3
downwards.
After a short self-test, the tool is ready for use. The readiness of use is in-
dicated when the signal LED 2 illuminates. If the signal LED 2 fails to illu-
minate after switching on the tool, you must replace the batteries.
To switch off the measuring tool, slide the On/Off switch 3 up-
wards.
When no measurements are carried out for approx. 10 minutes, the
measuring tool switches off automatically in order to extend the service
life of the batteries.
Note: If the measuring tool has automatically switched off, then the
On/Off switch 3 will still be in the "On" position. To switch the measuring
tool back on, first slide the On/Off switch 3 into the position "Off" and then
back into the position "On".

Operating Modes

The measuring tool detects objects below the sensor area 6.
 Before drilling, sawing or routing into a wall, protect yourself
against hazards by using other information sources. As the accura-
cy and scanning depth of the measuring tool can be reduced due to en-
vironmental conditions or the wall material, there is a risk that objects
may be within the sensor range, even if the display does not indicate an
object (the signal LED 2 illuminates green).
