Reference plane 12 a The measurement is taken from the top side of the product 12 b The measurement is taken from the bottom side of the product Note: First (previous) measured value will move to the top row when the second (latest) measurement is successfully started.24 GB/IE Scope of delivery 1 Laser distance measurer 2 1.5 V-batteries LR03 (AAA) 1 Instructions for use Technical data Measurement range: 0.075–20 m* (reference point top side) 0.175–20 m* (reference point bottom side) Measuring accuracy (typical): ± 3,0 mm

Smallest display unit: 1 mm Operating temperature: 0 °–40 °C (For indoor use) Relative humidity max.: ≤ 75 % Laser category: 2 Wavelength of the laser (λ): 620–690 nm Maximum power P max: <1 mW Operating voltage: 3 V (Direct current) Batteries: 2 x 1.5 V LR03 (AAA) Weight: 58 g (without batteries) Dimensions: 10 x 3.8 x 2.45 cm Degree of protection: IP20 *) The range improves the better the laser light is returned from the surface of the target (dispersing, not refl ecting) and the brighter the laser is compared to the ambient light (interior rooms, twilight). **) In unfavourable conditions such as strong sunlight or poorly refl ective surfaces, the maximum deviation is ± 8 mm at 20 m. In favourable conditions, a deviation influence of ± 0.1 mm/m must be taken into account.25 GB/IE General safety instructions Choking hazard! Packaging material (e. g. foils or polystyrol) are not to be toyed with. Keep children away from packaging material. The packaging material is not a toy. Do not use the product in locations where there is a risk of fi re or explosion, e.g. in the vicinity of inflammable liquids or gases. This product can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the haz- ards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision. Do not leave the product unattended when switched on, and switch off the product directly after use. Other people could be blinded by the laser beam. Protect the product from wetness or direct sunlight. Do not expose the product to any extremes of temperature or temperature fluctuations. For example, do not leave it in a car for extended periods. After exposure to large temperatu

fluctuations, allow the product to acclimatise before using it again. The precision of the product can be adversely aff ected by extreme temperatures or temperature fluctuations. Avoid hefty knocks or dropping the measuring tool. Protect yourself from laser radiation!26 GB/IE EN 60825-1:2014

CAUTION LASER RADIATION! DO NOT STARE

INTO BEAM! CLASS 2 LASER PRODUCT! Never look directly into the laser beam or into the opening from which it emerges. Looking at a laser beam through optical instruments (e.g. magnifying glasses etc.) can cause eye injuries. ATTENTION! If operating and adjustment equipment is used or procedures other than those specified here are carried out, this may result in hazardous radiation exposure. Never aim the laser beam at reflective surfaces, people or animals. Even brief visual contact with a laser beam can result in eye injuries. Safety instructions for batteries / rechargeable batteries DANGER TO LIFE! Keep batteries / rechargeable batter- ies out of reach of children. If accidentally swallowed seek immediate medical attention. DANGER OF EXPLOSION! Never recharge non-rechargeable batteries. Do not short-circuit batteries / rechargeable batteries and / or open them. Overheating, fire or bursting can be the result. Never throw batteries / rechargeable batteries into fire or water.27 GB/IE Do not exert mechanical loads to batteries / rechargeable batteries. Risk of leakage of batteries / rechargeable batteries Avoid extreme environmental conditions and temperatures, which could affect batteries / rechargeable batteries, e.g. radiators / direct sunlight. If batteries / rechargeable batteries have leaked, avoid contact with skin, eyes and mucous membranes with the chemicals! Flush immediately the affected areas with fresh water and seek medical attention! WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES! Leaked or damaged batteries / rechargeable batteries can cause burns on contact with the skin. Wear suit- able protective gloves at all times if such an event occurs. In the event of a leakage of batteries / rechargeable bat- teries, immediately remove them from the product to pre- vent damage. Only use the same type of batteries / rechargeable batteries. Do not mix used and new batteries / rechargeable batteries. Remove batteries / rechargeable batteries if the product will not be used for a longer period. Risk of damage of the product Only use the specified type of battery / rechargeable battery! Insert batteries / rechargeable batteries according to polar- ity marks (+) and (-) on the battery / rechargeable battery and the product. Clean the contacts on the battery / rechargeable battery and in the battery compartment before inserting! Remove exhausted batteries / rechargeable batteries from the product immediately.28 GB/IE Before using Check the consignment for completeness and for signs of visible damage. Remove all packaging material from the product. Inserting / replacing the batteries When the low battery icon appears in the display

, you can still make measurements. As soon as the battery icon turns empty , however, you must replace the batteries. Measure- ments are no longer possible. Open the battery compartment cover

by gently pushing down the battery compartment cover latch. Remove the used batteries from the battery compartment

, if necessary. Insert the (new) batteries. Ensure the correct polarity as shown on the diagram inside the battery compartment

Replace the battery compartment cover

as shown (fig. A). Start-up Switching on / off To switch the product on, press the MEAS button

When the product is switched on, the laser beam is activate

for approx. 5 seconds until the “OFF“ is shown on display. If no button is pressed for about 3 minutes, the product turns off automatically to save the batteries.29 GB/IE To Switch Measuring Reference point: Press the reference / unit button

to change measurement base from the top side of the product to its bottom side or vice versa. Selecting the unit of length

for more than 3 seconds.

2. The unit will change on the display.

3. Repeat the step 1 until the desired unit appears on the

display. Note: Following units of length are available: m meter in inch ft foot / feet ' " feet / inches Measuring lengths Briefly press the MEAS button

again to activate the laser beam.Once the laser is switched on, this is indicated on the top left corner of the display by the icon

Note: If laser beam is already activated, the above men- tioned step can be skipped. Now aim the laser at the target point. Briefly press the MEAS button

again. If the measurement is successful the measured value will be shown on the bottom line of the display and the laser beam will be turned off. If needed to measure another distance, repeat above steps. Newly measured value will be shown on the bottom line of the display and the previous measured value will be shown30 GB/IE in the middle of the display. Now, the laser beam will be turned off. Changing measurement mode Continuous measurement mode Under single measurement mode, press and hold the MEAS button

for 3 seconds to enter continuous meas- urement mode. Laser icon flashes in continuous measurement mode Single measurement mode Under continuous measurement mode, press and hold the MEAS button

for 3 seconds to enter single measurement mode. Laser icon stays on in single measurement mode. Error, faults & troubleshooting Faults Cause Solution ----- Calculation error Pay attention to the correct operating measuring range. 301 Operating temperature too low or too high Pay attention to the correct operating temperature range (0 °–40 °C).31 GB/IE Faults Cause Solution 401 Hardware failure If the icon appears de-
