4 Safety instructions
In addition to the information relevant to safety given
in each of the sections of these operating instructions,
the following points must be strictly observed at all
times.
4.1 Basic information concerning safety
a) Keep children away from the tool.
b) Check the display after switching the tool on. The
display should show the Hilti logo and the name of
the tool. The display then shows the current settings
or the settings previously saved.
c) Operation of the tool in the proximity of persons
with a cardiac pacemaker is not permissible.
d) Operation of the tool in the proximity of pregnant
women is not permissible.
e) Rapidly changing detection conditions may lead to
inaccurate readings.
f) Do not use the tool in the proximity of medical
instruments and appliances.
g) Do not drill at positions where the tool has located
an object.
h) The warnings shown in the display must always
be observed.
i) Due to the scanning principle employed, the res-
ults of the scan may be negatively affected by cer-
tain ambient conditions. These include, e.g. prox-
imity to appliances that generate powerful mag-
netic or electromagnetic fields, dampness, con-
struction materials containing metal, aluminium
foil-backed insulation, multiple layers, materials
with cavities or electrically conductive wall cov-
erings or tiles. Accordingly, other sources of in-
formation (e.g. plans of the building) should also
be consulted before beginning drilling, sawing or
grinding in the area scanned.
j) Take the influences of the surrounding area into
account. Do not use the tool where there is a risk
of fire or explosion.
k) Make sure that the display area can be easily
read (e.g. do not touch the display area with the
fingers, keep the display area clean).
l) Do not use the tool if it is defective.
m) Always keep the detection area clean.
n) Always check how the tool is set before using it.
o) Operation of the tool in the proximity of military
installations, airports or astronomical facilities is
not permissible unless prior permission has been
obtained.
4.2 Proper organization of the workplace
a) Avoid unfavorable body positions when working
from ladders. Make sure you work from a safe
stance and stay in balance at all times.
b) When the tool is brought into a warm environment
from very cold conditions, or vice-versa, allow it
to become acclimatized before use.
c) Only use the tool within the defined limits.
d) Observe the accident prevention regulations ap-
plicable in your country.
4.3 Electromagnetic compatibility
The tool complies with the requirements of EN 302435.
Accordingly, permission must be obtained prior to oper-
ating this tool, for example, in hospitals, atomic power
stations or in the proximity of airports or mobile phone
relay stations.
4.4 General safety instructions
a) Check the condition of the tool before use. If the
tool is found to be damaged, have it repaired at a
Hilti Service Center.
b) Keep the tool clean and dry at all times.
c) Do not apply stickers or adhesive plates at the
sensor area on the underside of the tool. Metal
plates, in particular, will affect scanning results.
d) Take care to ensure that the service cover on the
tool is always securely closed. The service cover
may be opened only at a Hilti Service Center.
e) You must check the accuracy of the tool after it
has been dropped or subjected to other mechan-
ical stresses.
f) Although the tool is designed for the tough con-
ditions of jobsite use, as with other measuring
instruments it should be treated with care.
g) Although the tool is protected against the entry of
moisture,itshouldbewipeddrybeforebeingput
away in its transport container.
h) Check the accuracy of the tool before using it for
detection or measurement.
4.5 Electrical safety
a) Keep the batteries out of reach of children.
b) Remove the batteries from the tool if it is to remain un-
used for some time. The batteries will self-discharge
and may begin to corrode if stored for a long period.
