To ensure operator safety, use this product according to the directions, functions and
specifications given in this User’s Manual. Use under other conditions may compromise
safety.
WARNING Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in
• Always keep batteries out of reach of children, and if swallowed, consult a physician
immediately.
• Batteries should never be short-circuited, disassembled, deformed or come in contact
with extreme heat or flames.
• If alkaline liquid contained in the battery does come in contact with your eyes, flush them
ABS Digimatic Caliper immediately with plenty of clean water and consult a physician. If the liquid adheres to
the skin or clothes, immediately flush it with plenty of clean water.
• Do not measure the workpiece if it is rotating. There is a risk of injury due to being
caught in the machine, etc.
CAUTION Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in
minor or moderate injury.
• The outside and inside measuring jaws of this caliper have sharp edges. Handle it with
great care to avoid injury.
