Hazards in use
CAUTION:
Watch out for erroneous distance measurements if the instrument is defective or if it has been dropped or has been misused or modified.
Precautions:
Carry out periodic test measurements. Particularly after the instrument has been subject to abnormal use, and before, during and after important measurements.
Make sure the Leica DISTO™ optics are kept clean and that there is no mechanical damage to the bumpers.
CAUTION:
In using the instrument for distance measurements or for positioning moving objects (e.g. cranes, building equipment, platforms, etc.) unforeseen events may cause erroneous measurements.

in a residential installation.
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 determined 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:
• 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
WARNING:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Leica Geosystems for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
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:

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:
Looking directly into the beam with optical aids (e.g. binoculars, telescopes) can be hazardous.
Precautions:
Do not look directly into the beam with optical aids.
CAUTION:
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.)

Inserting/replacing batteries
See figure {A}
1 Remove battery compartment lid and attach handstrap.
2 Insert batteries, observing correct polarity.
3 Close the battery compartment again. Replace the batteries when the symbol flashes permanently in the display.
)
Remove the batteries before any long period of non-use to avoid the danger of corrosion.
)
We recommend the usage of AA size max. 1,5V lithium batteries or rechargable NiMH batteries. The Leica DISTO™ also works with Alkaline batteries but the battery lifetime will be reduced.
WARNING:
This Leica DISTO™ was delivered with high quality non-rechargable lithium batteries. Wrong usage of lithium batteries can be hazardous.
Precautions:
• Please do not recharge these batteries.
• Do not mix lithium batteries with other types of batteries.
• Do not use batteries if their casing is damaged.

Changing the reference point (multifunctional endpiece)
See figure {B}
The instrument can be adapted for the following measuring situations:
• For measurements from an edge, fold out the positioning bracket until it first locks in place. See figure {C}.
• For measurements from a corner, open the positioning bracket until it locks in place, then push the positioning bracket lightly to the right to fold it out fully. See figure {D}.
A built-in sensor automatically detects the orientation of the positioning bracket and adjusts the zero point of the instrument accordingly.

Display illumination ( )
The brightness of the display has six levels of adjustment. Step 6 is the brightest and step 1 is the darkest setting.
Long range Mode ( )
Unfavourable conditions (strong sunlight or a very weak reflective target surface) may reduce the range of the device, in spite of this the long range mode allows you to take measurements over longer distances. The use of a tripod and measurement initiation by pressing the key are recommended when measurements over 30m are made over longer time periods in these conditions. (For details see Technical specifications)
)
The settings are reset when the device is switched off.
Measuring with the tripod ( )
The reference point may be adjusted to the tripod mount if the user requires a measurement from the actual mounting grommit versus the front or back of the DISTO. To do this select the symbol in this menu item. You can switch the reference on the tripod on or off. The setting can be seen on the display .

• All target points must be in a horizontal or vertical plane.
• The best results are achieved when the instrument is rotated about a fixed point (e.g. with the positioning bracket fully folded out and the instrument placed on a wall) or the disto is mounted on a tripod.
• The minimum/maximum function can be used - see explanation in
"Measuring -> Minimum/maximum measurement". The minimum value must be used for measurements at right angles to the target; the maximum distance for all other measurements.

Cool down instrument
Warm up instrument
Use target plate
Wrong measurement, background brightness too high
Laser beam interrupted
Target too reflective (use target plate)
Darken target (measure in different lighting conditions)
Repeat measurement
Error Cause
Error Hardware error
Remedy
Switch on/off the device several times. If the symbol still appears, then your instrument is defective. Please call your dealer for assistance.

* maximum deviation occurs under unfavourable conditions such as bright sunlight or when measuring to poorly reflecting or very rough surfaces. Measuring accuracy may deteriorate by approx. ± 0.1 mm/m for distances above 30 m. In long range mode the maximum deviation from a distance of 30 m increases to +/- 0.15 mm/m.

Measuring conditions
Measuring range
The range is limited to 200 m.
At night or dusk and if the target is in shadow the measuring range without target plate is increased. Use a target plate to increase the measurement range during daylight or if the target has poor reflection properties.
Target surfaces
Measuring errors can occur when measuring toward colourless liquids (e.g. water) or dust free glass, Styrofoam or similar semi-permeable surfaces.
Aiming at high gloss surfaces may deflect the laser beam and lead to measurement errors.
Against non-reflective and dark surfaces the measuring time may increase.
Warranty
The Leica DISTO™ D5 comes with a three* year warranty from Leica
Geosystems AG.
