▶ Do not look directly into the light source. In the event of direct eye contact with the laser beam,
close your eyes and move your head out of the path of the laser beam.
▶ Keep laser tools out of reach of children.
CAUTION
Unintentional activation of the laser beam presents a hazard. The laser beam may be switched on
by inadvertently pressing a measure command button or by a software error.
▶ Avoid unintentional activation of the laser beam.
▶ When handling the product, always bear in mind that the laser beam could be switched on
inadvertently. Before looking toward the path of the laser beam, make sure that the laser beam is
switched off or that the product is switched off completely.
