4.1 Turn on/off the device
Turn the device on with short press on the button HOLD/ON. If
there are no information on display appeared or the battery status
indicator shows low battery voltage, change the power supply.
To turn the device off press and hold the button /OFF until the
device turns off.
The device will turns off automatically after 1 minute if you do not
press any button.
4.1. Auto Zero functie
Wanneer u de knop ZERO/SET indrukt gaat het instrument in de
Zero mode en verschnt de volgende informatie in het scherm.
SET ZERO
At this point the sensor of the device should be taken away from
all objects on 30cm and press the button ZERO/SET again. The de-
vice will make the auto tuning and goes to the measuring mode,
see the picture.
SETTING ZERO...
Using auto zero mode you set up the humidity sensor readings to
the zero. To avoid deviation the auto zero mode should be used
periodically (time range 10-15 minutes).
4.2. Measuring mode
After choosing the material by button / and the material
group by button q/p put the sensor plate on the testing surface.
To obtain accurate readings it is necessary to ensure that the
sensor ts to the test surface (between the sensor and the surface
should be no gaps), and after reads the result.
The surface should be even, clean and homogeneous, without
deep dents and protrusions. The device should be slightly pressed
to the test surface with a force of about 1kg while obtaining the
measurements. Moisture measurement results can be obtained
for:
- Wood – arithmetic mean of more than three times measurement
- Concrete – arithmetic mean of more than ve times measurement
The measuring depth is 15-20mm which depends on moisture
and density of the measuring material (the device equipped with
calibration setting on this depth). If the thickness of the chosen
material is less then 15mm, the measurement should be carries
out with holding device with material on the air, so that the sensor
do not get information on the other materials.
To avoid the deviation use the auto zero mode (refer to the 4.2)
4.3. Sensor temperature units
If you hold the button p, the temperature unit changes from Celsi-
us to Fahrenheit, and with second long press it changes back.
5. MAINTENANCE
5.1. Preventive measures and checking should be periodically
done by users
5.2. Keep the device clean and protected from any bumps, dust
and dampness; wipe it with a clean and soft cloth.
5.3. After using remove all the dirt, thus etc., from the device.
5.4. If the battery status indicator shows low battery voltage, turn
off the device and change the power supply
5.5. To optimize the battery discharge time, turn on the device
before measuring and turn it off after using.
5.6. If during operation the device does not respond to the
keystrokes and does not turn off, open the battery compart-
ment for a few seconds, remove one of the batteries, insert it
back and re-start the instrument.
5.7. If the device does not respond to the turn on button, remove

To obtain accurate readings it is necessary to ensure that the
sensor ts to the test surface (between the sensor and the surface
should be no gaps), and after reads the result.
The surface should be even, clean and homogeneous, without
deep dents and protrusions. The device should be slightly pressed
to the test surface with a force of about 1kg while obtaining the
measurements. Moisture measurement results can be obtained
for:
- Wood – arithmetic mean of more than three times measurement
- Concrete – arithmetic mean of more than ve times measurement
The measuring depth is 15-20mm which depends on moisture
and density of the measuring material (the device equipped with
calibration setting on this depth). If the thickness of the chosen
material is less then 15mm, the measurement should be carries
out with holding device with material on the air, so that the sensor
do not get information on the other materials.
To avoid the deviation use the auto zero mode (refer to the 4.2)
4.3. Sensor temperature units
If you hold the button p, the temperature unit changes from Celsi-
us to Fahrenheit, and with second long press it changes back.
5. MAINTENANCE
5.1. Preventive measures and checking should be periodically
done by users
5.2. Keep the device clean and protected from any bumps, dust
and dampness; wipe it with a clean and soft cloth.
5.3. After using remove all the dirt, thus etc., from the device.
5.4. If the battery status indicator shows low battery voltage, turn
off the device and change the power supply
5.5. To optimize the battery discharge time, turn on the device
before measuring and turn it off after using.

4.1 Turn on/off the device
Turn the device on with short press on the button HOLD/ON. If
there are no information on display appeared or the battery status
indicator shows low battery voltage, change the power supply.
To turn the device off press and hold the button /OFF until the
device turns off.
The device will turns off automatically after 1 minute if you do not
press any button.
4.1. Auto Zero functie
Wanneer u de knop ZERO/SET indrukt gaat het instrument in de
Zero mode en verschnt de volgende informatie in het scherm.
SET ZERO
At this point the sensor of the device should be taken away from
all objects on 30cm and press the button ZERO/SET again. The de-
vice will make the auto tuning and goes to the measuring mode,
see the picture.
SETTING ZERO...
Using auto zero mode you set up the humidity sensor readings to
the zero. To avoid deviation the auto zero mode should be used
periodically (time range 10-15 minutes).
4.2. Measuring mode
After choosing the material by button / and the material
group by button q/p put the sensor plate on the testing surface.
To obtain accurate readings it is necessary to ensure that the
sensor ts to the test surface (between the sensor and the surface
should be no gaps), and after reads the result.
The surface should be even, clean and homogeneous, without
deep dents and protrusions. The device should be slightly pressed
to the test surface with a force of about 1kg while obtaining the
measurements. Moisture measurement results can be obtained
for:
- Wood – arithmetic mean of more than three times measurement
- Concrete – arithmetic mean of more than ve times measurement
The measuring depth is 15-20mm which depends on moisture
and density of the measuring material (the device equipped with
calibration setting on this depth). If the thickness of the chosen
material is less then 15mm, the measurement should be carries
out with holding device with material on the air, so that the sensor
do not get information on the other materials.
To avoid the deviation use the auto zero mode (refer to the 4.2)
4.3. Sensor temperature units
If you hold the button p, the temperature unit changes from Celsi-
us to Fahrenheit, and with second long press it changes back.
5. MAINTENANCE
5.1. Preventive measures and checking should be periodically
done by users
5.2. Keep the device clean and protected from any bumps, dust
and dampness; wipe it with a clean and soft cloth.
5.3. After using remove all the dirt, thus etc., from the device.
5.4. If the battery status indicator shows low battery voltage, turn
off the device and change the power supply
5.5. To optimize the battery discharge time, turn on the device
before measuring and turn it off after using.
5.6. If during operation the device does not respond to the
keystrokes and does not turn off, open the battery compart-
ment for a few seconds, remove one of the batteries, insert it
back and re-start the instrument.
5.7. If the device does not respond to the turn on button, remove

The surface should be even, clean and homogeneous, without
deep dents and protrusions. The device should be slightly pressed
to the test surface with a force of about 1kg while obtaining the
measurements. Moisture measurement results can be obtained
for:
- Wood – arithmetic mean of more than three times measurement
- Concrete – arithmetic mean of more than ve times measurement
The measuring depth is 15-20mm which depends on moisture
and density of the measuring material (the device equipped with
calibration setting on this depth). If the thickness of the chosen
material is less then 15mm, the measurement should be carries
out with holding device with material on the air, so that the sensor
do not get information on the other materials.
To avoid the deviation use the auto zero mode (refer to the 4.2)
4.3. Sensor temperature units
If you hold the button p, the temperature unit changes from Celsi-
us to Fahrenheit, and with second long press it changes back.
5. MAINTENANCE

4. Operation
4.1 Turn on/off the device
Turn the device on with short press on the button HOLD/ON. If
there are no information on display appeared or the battery status
indicator shows low battery voltage, change the power supply.
To turn the device off press and hold the button /OFF until the
device turns off.
The device will turns off automatically after 1 minute if you do not
press any button.
4.1. Auto Zero functie
Wanneer u de knop ZERO/SET indrukt gaat het instrument in de
Zero mode en verschnt de volgende informatie in het scherm.
SET ZERO
At this point the sensor of the device should be taken away from
all objects on 30cm and press the button ZERO/SET again. The de-
vice will make the auto tuning and goes to the measuring mode,
see the picture.
SETTING ZERO...
Using auto zero mode you set up the humidity sensor readings to
the zero. To avoid deviation the auto zero mode should be used
periodically (time range 10-15 minutes).
4.2. Measuring mode
After choosing the material by button / and the material
group by button q/p put the sensor plate on the testing surface.
To obtain accurate readings it is necessary to ensure that the
sensor ts to the test surface (between the sensor and the surface
should be no gaps), and after reads the result.
The surface should be even, clean and homogeneous, without
deep dents and protrusions. The device should be slightly pressed
to the test surface with a force of about 1kg while obtaining the
measurements. Moisture measurement results can be obtained
for:
- Wood – arithmetic mean of more than three times measurement
- Concrete – arithmetic mean of more than ve times measurement
The measuring depth is 15-20mm which depends on moisture
and density of the measuring material (the device equipped with
calibration setting on this depth). If the thickness of the chosen
material is less then 15mm, the measurement should be carries
out with holding device with material on the air, so that the sensor
do not get information on the other materials.
To avoid the deviation use the auto zero mode (refer to the 4.2)
4.3. Sensor temperature units
If you hold the button p, the temperature unit changes from Celsi-
us to Fahrenheit, and with second long press it changes back.
5. MAINTENANCE
5.1. Preventive measures and checking should be periodically
done by users
5.2. Keep the device clean and protected from any bumps, dust
and dampness; wipe it with a clean and soft cloth.
5.3. After using remove all the dirt, thus etc., from the device.
5.4. If the battery status indicator shows low battery voltage, turn
off the device and change the power supply
5.5. To optimize the battery discharge time, turn on the device
before measuring and turn it off after using.
5.6. If during operation the device does not respond to the
keystrokes and does not turn off, open the battery compart-
ment for a few seconds, remove one of the batteries, insert it
back and re-start the instrument.
5.7. If the device does not respond to the turn on button, remove
