The distance measuring function is for measuring distances, lengths, heights, and clearances. This
function is depicted by the arrow symbol .
OPERATION
WARNING:
Do not direct the laser beam at persons or animals. Do not stare into the direct or reflected
laser beam, not even from a distance. Looking into the laser beam or directing the laser beam into someone’s
eyes can cause eye damage, blindness, and cause accidents.

4. Press the measurement button again to take the measurement.
The value will be seen on your display. Your screen will look like Fig. 4.
MEASURING AN AREA
The area measuring function is made for calculating the area of a rect-
angular space. This function is depicted by the area symbol .

culate after the second measurement is taken. The value of the width
measurement will be seen on the top row of your screen and the area
will be on the bottom. Your screen will look like Fig. 5.

A line will appear on the edge of the area symbol to indi-
cate which measurement you are recording.
