1. Switch on the moisture meter
To turn it on, press the ON / OFF button. The moisture meter will automatically turn on without calibration.
After switching on the device, the last selected scale appears on the display. If the battery level is too low,
the device will indicate this and then switch off .
OPERATION MANUAL
The device will switch off automatically if it is not
used for a long time (after 5 minutes). This extends
the life of the inserted batteries. To manually turn off
the moisture meter, press and hold the ON / OFF but-
ton. Each time the power is turned off , the last settin-
gs (scale, language) are saved.
3. Measurement
The device examines the properties of the material
by means of a remanence measurement. The die-
lectric properties depend on the humidity, the bulk
density of the material and the metal elements.
CAUTION!! Metal parts (such as nails, screws) in the measuring range of the device increase the measu-
red value. The measurement results are shown on the display. The moisture meter has 13 scales that allow
to determine the humidity of the given material. The selected area is shown at the bottom of the display.
Before the measurement, remove the protective cap. Press the measuring needles lightly into the wood
or plaster to be measured. The measurement is automatic, so that the measured value can now be read from
the display. As soon as the measuring needles are removed, the measured value changes. After the measu-
rement, replace the protective cap.
As an optional accessory, attachable depth probes are available for measurements in plaster and masonry
(GE10, GE31). The probes are connected via 3½mm jack connection.
4. Selection of the scale
By including 13 scales in the device you can do without the correction table. This makes the measurement
not only more accurate but also easier and more convenient. The selected area is shown at the bottom of the
display. To change the scale, briefl y press the ‚SET’ key.
CAUTION!! After switching on the device, the last selected scale appears on the display.
