WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, user must read and understand instructionmanual.SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONSSafety Instructions• Do not operate the stud sensor in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence offlammable liquids, gases, or dust.• Use the stud sensor only with 9 volt alkaline battery. Use of any other batteries may create arisk of fire.CAUTION: Material thickness, type of material, moisture content, and other variables caneffect sensing results. The sensor may detect electric wiring or pipes in the same mannerthat studs are detected depending on their location to the wall surface. Use caution whendrilling, nailing or cutting into walls, floors and ceilings which may contain electrical wiring orpipes. These items may be detected by the Stud Sensor in the same manner in which studsare detected. Because studs are normally spaced 16 inches (406 mm) or 24 inches (610mm) apart and are usually 1-1/2 inches (38 mm) wide, beware of anything closer togetheror of a different width. Always turn off the power when working near electrical wires.INSTALLING THE BATTERYRemove the battery compartment cover (D) by pressing in the tab in the center of the coverand pulling back.
