4. Asennus

4.1 Akun asennus

1. Paikanna laitteen takaosassa oleva paristolokeron kansi.
2. Avaa kansi.
3. Aseta 2 AA-paristoa varmistaen oikea napaisuus (+/-).
4. Sulje paristolokeron kansi kunnolla.

4.2 Ensimmäinen käynnistys

Paina ON/OFF button to power on the device. The backlit LCD display will illuminate, showing the current angle reading.

5. Käyttöohjeet

5.1 Virta päälle/pois

• Virran kytkeminen: Paina lyhyesti ON/OFF -painiketta.
• Virran sammuttaminen: Paina ja pidä painettuna ON/OFF -painiketta noin 3 sekunnin ajan.

5.2 Measurement Modes (Absolute vs. Relative)

The inclinometer supports both absolute and relative measurement modes.

• Absoluuttinen mittaustila: Measures the angle relative to a true horizontal surface.
• Suhteellinen mittaustila: Allows you to set any surface as a temporary zero reference point for measuring subsequent angles.

Vaihda tilojen välillä painamalla NOLLA button. In relative mode, the display will show '0.00°' after pressing NOLLA, indicating the new reference point.

5.4 Hold-toiminto

The PIDÄ function allows you to freeze the current reading on the display for easier viewing, especially in hard-to-reach areas.

• To activate the HOLD function, short press the PIDÄ button. The reading will freeze, and a 'HOLD' indicator may appear on the screen.
• To release the HOLD function and resume live readings, short press the PIDÄ painiketta uudelleen.

5.5 Automatic Screen Flip

The display automatically rotates 180° when the device is inverted, ensuring the numbers are always upright and easy to read from any orientation.
