14 GB
immediately the affected areas with fresh water and seek medi-
cal attention!
WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES! Leaked or dam-
aged batteries/rechargeable batteries can cause
burns on contact with the skin. Wear suitable protec-
tive gloves at all times if such an event occurs.
In the event of a leakage of batteries/rechargeable batteries,
immediately remove them from the product to prevent damage.

Insert batteries/ rechargeable batteries according to polarity
marks (+) and (-) on the battery/rechargeable battery and
the product.
Use a dry lint-free cloth or cotton swab to clean the contacts
on the battery/rechargeable battery and in the battery com-
partment before inserting!
Remove exhausted batteries/ rechargeable batteries from the
product immediately.
Before using

visible damage.

15GB
Remove all packaging material from the product.
Remove protective foil from the display 2.
Inserting/replacing the batteries
When the low battery icon appears in the display 2, you can
still make measurements. As soon as the battery icon turns empty ,
however, you must replace the batteries. Measurements are no
longer possible.
Open the battery compartment cover 5b by gently pushing
down the battery compartment cover latch 32 .
Remove the used batteries from the battery compartment 5a ,
if necessary.

on the diagram inside the battery compartment 5a .
Replace the battery compartment cover 5b as shown (fig. A).
Start-up
Power ON/OFF
Press power button 11 to power on the product. The laser
beam will be activated from the laser beam output opening 4.
Laser on icon 31 will also be shown on the display 2.
Press and hold the power button 11 until the LC display turns
off to power off the product. The laser beam flashes again shortly
before it is finally switched off.

16 GB
Note: If no button is pressed for 30 seconds, laser beam will be
turned off automatically. If no button is pressed for 3 minutes, the
product will automatically power off itself.
Acoustic signal:
- Each press of a button and every error-free function that is carried
out is confirmed by a short beep.
- A double beep will be heard in the event of any fault.
- Under continuous measurement mode, fast pace of short beeps
will be continuously heard and in the event of error, the fast pace
double beep will slow down.
- Briefly press the beep button 13 to activate or deactivate the
beep sound at any mode.
Home-screen mode:
Briefly press power button 11 at any mode to clear all data
shown on the display and to go to Home-screen mode. At
Home-screen mode, there won't be any data on the display
and user can press any particular button at this home-screen
mode to go to any specific mode.
Handling and Operation
Selecting the unit of length
Right after power on the product, the last-used length unit will be
shown on the display. Press Unit button 10 to select another
unit. You can set the following length units in this order:

17GB
Length Area Volumes
0.000 m 0.000 m20.000 m3
0.000 ft 0.000 ft20.00 ft3

0’0 ₆ 0.00 ft20.00 ft3
Return/Clear
Press “Return/Clear“ button 8at any mode to clear latest
measured value and go back to previous value (or) go back
to previous mode.
Press “Return/Clear“ button 8multiple times to go back
to Home-screen mode (see chapter “Start-up“, section “Home-
screen mode“).
Note: Pressing “Return/Clear“ button 8under continuous
measurement mode will stop the measurement.
Selection of the reference point
The reference point (back) 29 (base) or the reference point (end
piece) 28 or the reference point (front) 30 of the product can be
used as the contact surface for any measurement. The reference point
is to be set before measurement. Otherwise, the measured result
differs from actual value. The default reference point setting is from
the reference point (back) 29 of the product. The reference point
can be changed by pressing the reference button 12 repeatedly

18 GB
until the desired reference point shown on the top left side corner
of the display.
End piece reference point
The end piece at the reference point 33 will be useful while a
distance is measured from a corner (diagonal room) or from the
place, where it is difficult to reach. The end piece at the reference
point 33 is at the back of the product. The end piece at the reference
point 33 can be unfolded as shown in the fig D using a sharp tool
(example: flat screwdriver) or finger nail. Once finished using, the end
piece at the reference point 33 has to be folded-back for future use.
Measuring lengths
Single Measurement mode
1. Place or hold the reference plane of the product on or against
the desired base surface from which you want to determine a
distance.
2. Check the flatness of the product by use of both the spirit levels
6. One of the bubble level is for checking horizontal flatness
and the other air bubble is for checking vertical flatness. To,
check the flatness of certain angle, make sure that bubble is
positioned at the middle of respective angle bubble level.
3. Briefly press the MEAS button 16 to activate the laser. Once
the laser is switched on, it is indicated by the laser on icon 31
on the display.

19GB
Note: Step 3 can be skipped if the laser beam is already
activated.
4. Now aim the laser at the target point and press the MEAS
button 16 briefly again to take a measurement. If the
measurement is successful, the measured result will be shown
on the bottom row 23 of the display. The previous readings
are pushed upwards.
Note:
- Repeat the step 1 to 4 if needed to measure another distance.
- Distance Measurement mode icon 26 will stay on (not flashing)
under single measurement mode.
- Maximum up to 4 measured values can be shown on the
display at a same time.
- If no button is pressed for 30 seconds, the laser and display
back-light will turn off. If no button is pressed for 3 minutes,
the product will power off itself.
Continuous Measurement mode
Continuous measurement involves taking series of measurements
from which the maximum (MAX) and minimum (MIN) values are
displayed. To do this, move the product along a base surface or an
edge from which you wish to the measure a distances. You can, for
example, measure how parallel two opposite walls are or measure
the maximum values while using a function.
1. Start the continuous measurement by briefly pressing the contin-
uous measurement button 14 . A very short delay could be
