[. . . ] Switching On and Off Before switching the measuring tool on, make sure that the sensor area 5 is not moist. if required , wipe the measuring tool dry using a cloth. If the measuring tool was subject to an extreme temperature change, allow it to adjust to the ambient temperature before switching on. [. . . ] Other wires/conductors (carrying DC, higher/lower frequency or voltage) as well as "dead" wires/conductors cannot be found reliably, but are possibly indicated as metal objects. The scan for "live" wires/conductors takes place automatically for each measurement. when a "live" wire/connductor is detected , the indicator b appears in the display. Move the measuring tool over the surface repeatedly in order to localise the "live" wire. After moving the measuring tool over the surface several times, the position of the "live" wire/conductor can be indicated quite precisely. If the measuring tool is very close to the wire/conductor, then the illuminated ring 1 lights up red and the signal tone sounds with rapid tone sequence. "Live" wires/conductors can be detected easier when power consumers (e. , lamps, appliances) are connected to the wire/conductor being sought and switched on. Wires/conductors with 110 V, 230 V and 400 V (three-phase current) are detected with about the same scan capacity. Under certain conditions (such as when behind metal surfaces or behind surfaces with high water content), "live" wires/conductors cannot be detected with certainty. When measuring indicator c is indicated over a larger range, then the material is screening-off electrically and the scan for "live" wires/conductors is not reliable. On condition of the principle, the measuring values can be impaired through certain ambient conditions. , the proximity of other equipment that produce strong magnetic or electromagnetic fields, moisture, metallic building materials, foil-laminated insulation materials or conductive wallpaper. Therefore, please also observe other information sources (e. Construction plans) before drilling, sawing or routing into walls, ceilings or floors. marking Objects Detected objects can be marked as required. Where the amplitude of measuring indication c is at its maximum, the centre of the object is located below marking hole 2. The limits of an object are indicated by the colour change of the illuminated ring 1 from green to red. [. . . ] Exploded views and information on spare parts can be found under: www. Only for EC countries: Do not dispose of measuring tools into household waste!According the European Guideline 2002/96/EC for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment and its implementation into national right, measuring tools that are no longer usable must be collected separately and disposed of in an environmentally correct manner.
