Avoiding storage and transport damage
à When not in use, always keep the device dry and in its pouch.
à
Remove the battery prior to prolonged storage. Battery leakage can damage the
device.
à
Observe the permissible storage temperatures.

Do not expose the device to strong mechanical shocks or abrupt temperature
transitions during transport (moisture condensation). Use the pouch and transit
case or equivalent packaging for shipment.
Avoiding measurement errors
à Always check the plausibility of the measurement values displayed. Respect the
factors affecting the measurement accuracy. Always perform test measurements
after the device has been exposed to rough handling (e.g. vibration, drop) and before
carrying out important measurement tasks.
à
Distance errors may occur when measuring on or through glass or onto highly
reflective surfaces such as road signs, mirrors or water surfaces.
à
Verify the correctness of the transmitted data.
Blinding hazard
Do not look into powerful light sources (e.g. sun) with the device. Although the product
