Caution: Do not remove the Li-Ion battery while the device is turned on or you will lose data.

8. Device calibration

Wait for 30 seconds until the device is ready (indicated with a beep).

Caution: Do not move the device while it’s calibrating.

Caution:

• Always make sure that the Back Cover is closed and locked before scanning. The Harness System can then support the weight of the device. The Back Cover also secures the Li-Ion Battery preventing the battery from falling out causing damage or harm to yourself or others.

• Do not use the device if the Back Cover or the Fan Filter are missing or damaged. This would void the IP rating and could lead to dust accumulation and water infiltration.
