Corrective Measure
Water-filled plastic pipes in dry walls are also
detected in "Wood" mode.
"Wood" mode is only designed for dry walls.
Dry walls made from coarse chipboard can be highly
inhomogeneous and cause incorrect measurements.
For this reason, start the measurement at a different
place on the wall and measure at a different height. If
this does not help, hold an additional plasterboard
panel on the wall and perform the measurement on this.
Place the measuring tool onto the wall quickly.

sible and do not tilt the measuring tool.
Only use the measuring tool in an operating tempera-
ture range of –5 °C to +40 °C.
ent temperature.
Apply voltage to the cable, e.g. by turning on the cor-
responding light switches. It is not possible to reliably
detect multi-phase electricity cables and cables with
voltages outside the 110–240 V, 50–60 Hz range.
The scanning depth is dependent on the building
material and may be less than the maximum scanning
depth.
Select "Metal" mode to detect metal pipes.
