depends on the position of the ca-
ble. Therefore, apply further meas-
urements in close proximity or use
other information sources to check
if a “live” conductor exists.
Voltage-free conductors can be de-
tected as metal objects. This does
not apply for stranded conductors
(contrary to solid conductors or
cable).
Static electricity can lead to inac-
curate indication of electric lines,
e.g., over a large range. To improve
the indication, place your free hand
flat on the wall next to the meas-
uring tool, in order to remove the
static electricity.
Working Advice
Measuring values can be im-
paired through certain ambient
conditions. These include, e.g.,
the proximity of other equipment
that produce strong magnetic or
electromagnetic fields, moisture,
metallic building materials, foil-
laminated insulation materials
or conductive wallpaper or tiles.
Therefore, please also observe
other information sources (e.g.
construction plans) before drilling,
sawing or routing into walls, ceil-
ings or floors.
Marking Objects
If required, detected objects can
be marked. Perform a measure-
ment as usual. Once you have found
the boundaries or the centre of an
object, mark the sought location
through the marking hole
2 .
Temperature Control
The measuring tool is equipped with
a temperature control indicator, as
accurate measurements are only
possible as long as the temperature
within the measuring tool remains
constant.
When the temperature control indi-
cator
f lights up, the measuring tool
is not within the operating tempera-
ture range or was subject to large
variations in temperature.
Switch
the measuring tool off and allow it
to adjust to the ambient tempera-
ture before switching it on again.
Warning Function
When indicator b lights up on the
display, the measurement must be
restarted. Remove the measuring
tool from the wall and place it on the
base material at a different location.
When indicator
b flashes on display
3 , send the measuring tool to an au-
thorised customer services agent.
Recalibration
When the main scale h indicates a
continuously high amplitude, even
though there is no object near the
measuring tool, the measuring tool
can be manually recalibrated.
Switch the measuring tool off.
Remove all objects near the meas-
uring tool that could be detected,
including your wrist watch or rings
made of metal, and hold the meas-
uring tool up.
Pay attention that battery indicator
g indicates at least /3 capacity:
Switch the measuring tool on
again. When the measuring tool
starts, immediately press and hold
