Measuring area (Fig. 11)
If you measure the length and the width, the area is automatically
calculated.
1 Select area mode. (See “Selecting a measuring mode”)
2 Measure the length.
○ Press the measure button and aim the laser at the target
length.
○ Press the measure button again to fi nish measuring. A beep
sounds and the length measurement is indicated on the
display. The laser does not go off at this time.
3 Measure the width.
○ Press the measure button and aim the laser at the target width.
○ Press the measure button again to fi nish measuring. A beep
sounds and the width measurement and calculated area are
indicated on the display.

Measuring sides (Pythagorean theorem)
If you measure the two sides of a right triangle, the length of the third
side is calculated automatically.
Use this mode when you cannot measure the distance because there is
an obstacle or there is no elevated target surface.
To obtain side C (Fig. 13)
1 Select side mode. (See “Selecting a measuring mode”)
2 Measure the length of side A.
Follow the instructions for measuring the length in area mode and
measure side A.
3 Measure side B.
○ Follow the instructions for measuring the length of side A and
measure the length of side B.
○ When you have fi nished measuring, a beep sounds and the
measured length of side B and calculated result of side C are
indicated on the display.
