Switching On and Off
Before switching the measuring tool on,
make sure that the sensor area 9 is not

treme temperature change, allow it to ad-
just to the ambient temperature before

ing tool switches off automatically. This

Universal mode
Position the measuring tool against the wall and
move it over the wall in the direction of travel
(see "Method of Operation", page 21). Meas-
ured results are indicated on display 16 after a
minimum measuring distance of 10 cm. To en-
sure correct measurement results, move the
measuring tool slowly and completely over the
assumed object in the wall.
If the measuring tool is lifted away from the wall
during a measurement, the last measured result
remains on the display. "Hold" appears on the
sensor-range indicator c. When the measuring
tool is placed against the wall again, moved on
or when the start button 11 is pressed, the
measurement starts anew.
When LED 17 lights up red, an object is in the
sensor range. When LED 17 lights up green, no
object is in the sensor range. When LED 17
flashes, a "live" object is in the sensor range.
Before drilling, sawing or routing into a
wall, protect yourself against hazards by us-
ing other information sources. As the meas-
uring results can be influenced through ambi-
ent conditions or the wall material, there may
be a hazard even though the indicator does
not indicate an object in the sensor range
(LED 17 lit green).
