Precautions when using the Caliper
■ Do not measure a rotating part; it is dangerous and causes the faces in
contact to wear.
■ Do not expose the caliper to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
■ Do not apply any voltage on any part of the caliper. Any external voltage
may damage the circuitry of the caliper.
■ Do not disassemble the caliper.
■ Do not move the slide too fast (over 1,5m/s or 60 inches/s), this can cause
measurement errors.
■ Flashing of digits shows a weak battery and that it must be replaced.
■ Do not wash or immerse the caliper in any liquid.
■ When cleaning the caliper, use a fabric lightly wet in isopropyl alcohol.
■ Keep the caliper clean and dry.
■ Avoid handling the caliper with oily hands.
