Step 2—Correct any shelf order errors
1. Locate and remove the selected (highlighted) item from the shelf.
a) Press the trigger and read the shelf with the DLA to find the
misshelved item.
• The shelf graphics show the item’s approximate location.
• The DLA emits rapid beeps and turns all three lights ON when
it finds the item.
b) Remove the item from the shelf.
2. Press Shelve and shelve the selected item.
a) Use the DLA to find the correct shelf location.
• The indicator lights, sounds, and distance indicator show when
the DLA is to the left, right, or at the correct shelf position.
• The distance indicator displays the approximate number of item
positions between the current DLA location and the correct
location.
• You can also use the Goes Between listing and the shelf-
location arrow to help find the correct shelf location.
b) Place the item in correct shelf location.
3. Press Clear to remove the item from the list.
a) The display will return to the shelf-order error listing.
b) Repeat steps 1-3 to shelve the rest of the items.
If desired, press and hold Clear for approximately two seconds to clear all items from the error
listing.
4. Optional – After shelving items, recheck the shelf order.
