Hazards in use  
CAUTION:

Watch out for erroneous distance measure-  
ments if the instrument is defective or if it has been  
dropped or has been misused or modified.

received from your Leica Geosystems dealer.  
Make sure the Leica DISTO™ optics is kept clean and  
Electromagnetic Compatibility  
(EMC)  
that there is no mechanical damage to the bumpers.  
CAUTION:  
ƽ
The term "electromagnetic compatibility" is taken to  
mean the capability of the product to function  
smoothly in an environment where electromagnetic  
radiation and electrostatic discharges are present,  
and without causing electromagnetic interference to  
other equipment.  
In using the instrument for distance measure-  
ments or for positioning moving objects (e.g. cranes,  
building equipment, platforms, etc.) unforeseen  
events may cause erroneous measurements.  
Precautions:  
Only use this product as a measuring sensor, not as  
a control device. Your system must be configured and  
operated in such a way, that in case of an erroneous  
measurement, malfunction of the device or power  
failure due to installed safety measures (e.g. safety  
limit switch), it is assured that no damage will occur.  
WARNING:  
ƽ
The Leica DISTO™ conforms to the most strin-  
gent requirements of the relevant standards and  
regulations. Yet, the possibility of it causing interfer-  
ence in other devices cannot be totally excluded.

FCC statement (applic. in U.S.)  
Laser classification  
Integrated distancemeter  
The Leica DISTO™ produces a visible laser beam  
which emerges from the front of the instrument.  
It is a Class 2 laser product in accordance with:  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply  
with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to  
part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to  
provide reasonable protection against harmful inter-  
ference in a residential installation.  
P
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio  
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in  
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful  
interference to radio communications.  
However, there is no guarantee that interference will  
not occur in a particular installation.  
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to  
radio or television reception, which can be deter-  
mined by turning the equipment off and on, the user  
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by  
one or more of the following measures:  
IEC60825-1 : 2007 "Radiation safety of laser  
products"  
Laser Class 2 products:  
Do not stare into the laser beam or direct it towards  
other people unnecessarily. Eye protection is  
normally afforded by aversion responses including  
the blink reflex.  
WARNING:  
ƽ
Looking directly into the beam with optical aids  
(e.g. binoculars, telescopes) can be hazardous.  
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
Increase the separation between the equipment  
and receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit  
different from that to which the receiver is  
connected.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV  
technician for help  
Precautions:  
Do not look directly into the beam with optical aids.  
CAUTION:  
ƽ
Looking into the laser beam may be hazardous  
to the eyes.  
Precautions:  
Do not look into the laser beam. Make sure the laser  
is aimed above or below eye level. (particularly with  
fixed installations, in machines, etc.)

Use a target plate to increase the measurement  
range during daylight or if the target has poor reflec-  
tion properties.
