Inserting/changing the batteries
It is recommended that you use alkaline manganese or rechargeable batteries to operate the measuring tool.
To open the battery compartment cover (8), press on the locking mechanism (7) and remove the battery compartment cover. Insert the non-rechargeable batteries/rechargeable batteries.
When inserting the batteries, ensure that the polarity is correct according to the illustration on the inside of the battery compartment.
If the batteries or rechargeable batteries are empty, the status indicator (3) will light up red and the laser beams are switched off. Switch off the measuring tool and replace the batteries or rechargeable batteries.
Always replace all the batteries at the same time. Only use batteries from the same manufacturer and which have the same capacity.
- Take the batteries out of the measuring tool when you are not using it for a prolonged period of time. The batteries can corrode during prolonged storage in the measuring tool.
