the current battery status:
Always replace all batteries/rechargeable batteries at the
same time. Do not use different brands or types of batteries/
rechargeable batteries together.
Remove the batteries/rechargeable batteries from the
measuring tool when not using it for longer periods.
When storing for longer periods, the batteries/rechargeable
batteries can corrode and self-discharge.
Operation
Initial Operation
Protect the measuring tool against moisture and direct
sun light.
Do not subject the measuring tool to extreme tempera-
tures or variations in temperature.
As an example, do not
leave it in vehicles for a long time. In case of large variations
in temperature, allow the measuring tool to adjust to the
ambient temperature before putting it into operation. In
case of extreme temperatures or variations in temperature,
the accuracy of the measuring tool can be impaired.
The contact surfaces and contact edges of the measur-
ing tool must be clean. Protect the measuring tool
against impact and shock.
Debris particles or deforma-
tions can lead to faulty measurements.
Avoid heavy impact to or dropping down of the measur-
ing tool.
After severe exterior effects to the measuring tool,
it is recommended to carry out an accuracy check (see
“Checking the Measuring Accuracy”, page 14) each time
before continuing to work.
