To guarantee the best measuring precision of the incline, vertical and leveling plane: Calibrate before first use. Before important measurements. After a hit or drop. Horizontal Calibration Check Put the level on a smooth level plane and observe the LCD display. Note the reading after 10 seconds.
5679H-English_Manuals 5/3/12 10:26 AM Page 12 Vertical Calibration Check Put the level on a smooth vertical plane and observe the LCD display. Note the reading after 10 seconds. Then turn the level 180º on the same plane. After another 10 seconds note the second reading. The calibration is necessary if the difference between the two measuring readings is over 0.2%. Calibration in the Horizontal Direction 1. Put the level on a flat surface and press the “CAL” button. -0- will be displayed. Wait 10 seconds.
