Functions:
1. To turn the tool electronic functions on, press the On/Off button
for 1 to 2 seconds. The level vials will light up and the tool will
beep once to indicate that its electronic functions are ready to
use.
2. To turn the electronic functions off, press and release the On/Off
button.
Horizontal level operation (0°)
1. When the level is placed on a horizontal surface, and determines
the surface to be perfectly level between 0° and 0.1° from level),
the top vial will light solid GREEN and the tool will beep 3 times.
2. If the surface is slightly off-horizontal (= between 0.1° and 0.5°
from level), which is acceptable for most applications, the top
vial will flash GREEN continuously.
3. If the surface is not acceptably horizontal (more than 0.5° from
level), the top vial will light up solid RED.
Diagonal level operation (45°)
1. When the level is placed on a surface to determine a diagonal
surface (45 0.2°), the diagonal vial (right of On/Off button)
will light solid GREEN and the tool will beep 3 times.
2. If the surface is slightly off-diagonal (= between 0.2° and 0.5°
from 45°), which is acceptable for most applications, the
diagonal vial will flash GREEN continuously.
3. If the surface is not acceptably diagonal (more than 0.5° from
45°), the diagonal vial will light up solid RED.

Vertical level operation (90°)
1. When the level is placed on a surface to determine a vertical
surface (90 0.1°), the vertical vial (left of On/Off button) will
light solid GREEN and the tool will beep 3 times.
2. If the surface is slightly off-vertical (= between 0.1° and 0.5°
from 90°), which is acceptable for most applications, the
vertical vial will flash GREEN continuously.
3. If the surface is not acceptably vertical (more than 0.5° from
90°), the vertical vial will light up solid RED.
Sleep Function
When the level is idle for 60 seconds all of the electronic functions
automatically turn off. Press the On/Off button for 1 to 2 seconds
to turn electronic functions back on.
Low Battery Power Indication
When battery power falls below what is needed for proper tool
electronic functionality, the top vial will flicker RED to indicate that
the batteries need to be replaced.
Level Calibration
The level has been calibrated at the factory prior to shipment.
However, circumstances such as the process of shipping and
handling, or dropping the level onto a hard surface, may cause it
to fall out of calibration. To recalibrate the level, perform the
following procedure.
Note: The calibration shall be operated on horizontal platform.

1. With the electronic functions turned off, place the level on a
horizontal surface where the bubble in the top vial is perfectly
centered. (FIG 1)
2. Press the On/Off button so that the tool beeps 3 times and the
top vial turns solid Green.
3. Press and hold the On/Off button approximately 5 seconds until
the top vial flashes RED and beeps once.
4. Turn level upside down and rest it on the same horizontal
surface. Wait for light to turn solid Green and beep 3 times.
(FIG 2)
5. Turn level right side up and rest on the same surface. The light
will remain solid Green and the tool will beep 3 times. The level
is now correctly calibrated for horizontal, diagonal and vertical
operation.
Note: If the level is not calibrated correctly, the tool will continue
beeping, and the calibration procedure must be repeated.
