Pass the manual on to whomsoever might acquire the scale at a later date. - 1 MULTI-DETECTOR KH 3236 Intended use The Multi-Measurement Detector is designed for the locating of electrical cables, of wood and metal objects, for the projecting of laser lines, for the measuring of areas and volumes as well as for the measuring of distances. The appliance is intended for domestic use only. Do not use it for commercial purposes. Safety instructions Risk of injury! • Do not use the appliance at locations where there is a risk of fire or explosion, e. g. close to inflammable liquids or gases. • This appliance is not intended for use by individuals (including children) with restricted physical, physiological or intellectual abilities or deficiences in experience and/or knowledge unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or receive from this person instruction in how the appliance is to be used. • Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. • Exercise caution with the holding pins. They are sharp and can cause injuries. Caution regarding damage to the appliance! • Do not expose the appliance to rainfall. Do not use the appliance in moist or wet environments. • Do not place objects containing liquids, e. g. flower vases, on the appliance. • Do not place any open sources of fire, like candles, on the device. This appliance contains a Class 2 laser. NEVER direct the laser beam at people or animals. NEVER look directly into the laser. The laser can cause serious eye damage. • Do NOT direct the laser beam at strongly reflective material. Reflected laser beams are also dangerous. • Do NOT use the appliance to determine the alternating voltage level in exposed or non-insulated power cables. • Do NOT use the appliance as a substitute for a voltmeter. - 2 The appliance does not always recognise all pipes and power cables. The following conditions can contribute to inaccurate results: – very thick walls – weak battery – deeply laid power cables or pipework – shielded cables – thick walls with thin pipes or power cables – walls panelled with metal sheets – very moist conditions • This appliance is not suitable for detecting power cables in circuits, – which are isolated from the mains power supply. – through which direct current flows. – which are used for computer or telecommunications systems. • With this appliance pipework made of plastic or similar materials cannot be detected, only pipework made of metal. • No warranty will be accepted for damage caused by manipulation of the laser equipment, as well as of the ultrasound transmitter/receiver, and through disregard of the safety instructions. Interaction with batteries: • Leaking batteries can cause damage to the appliance. If you do not intend to use the appliance for an extended period, remove the batteries. • Should the batteries leak, wear protective gloves and clean the battery compartment with a dry cloth. • Keep batteries away from children. Children can put batteries into their mouths and swallow them. Should a battery ever be swallowed, seek medical attention IMMEDIATELY.

Remove all transport restraints and packaging materials. Remove the protective foil from the display 2. Inserting the battery 1. Open the battery compartment t on the rear side of the Multi-Measurement Detector. 2. Place the 9 V block battery onto the contacts. Pay heed to the correct polarity. 3. Lay the tape for removal of the battery underneath the 9 V block battery and press it into the battery compartment t. Important! Ensure that the wires are not trapped in any way. This would lead to irreparable damage to the appliance. - 4 4. Close the battery compartment t. The battery compartment lid must close with an audible click. Measuring distances 1. Slide the function switch q to „Distance“. The display 2 switches itself on. To switch between the metric and the Anglo-American units of measurement, press and hold the button MODE 4. Then press the button READ 6 and release both buttons simultaneously. When you release the buttons, the measurement units change. Note: Measurements start at the measurement point 1! Should the measurement lie outside the measurement range, „Err“ or an illogical number appear in the display. The measurement range...
