rust-preventive oil on the caliper with a soft cloth soaked in oil.
2. Install the supplied battery, by pressing and pushing the battery lid away
from the main body.
3. Before measuring, wipe the sliding surfaces and measuring faces to
remove dust and dirt.
4. Close the jaws and make sure that there is no light observed between
the jaws, if the caliper is not already reading "0.00mm" press the "ABS"
button once.

ABSOLUTE MEASUREMENT(ABS)
1. With 'power-on' the caliper is in ABS mode and displays a measurement
from zero.
RELATIVE MEASUREMENT
1. For taking repeated measurements relative to a proposed zero point.
2. Move the slider to the proposed zero point.
3. Press the REL button to set a false zero (REL will be displayed).
4. Measurements will now read ± from the chosen relative zero point.
5. During this operation, if you decide you want a reading from the absolute
zero simply press the REL button again to take reading.
6. You will then need to reset the chosen relative zero point.
TAKING
MEASUREMENTS
External Dimensions
Put the workpiece as close
to the reference surface as
possible, and have the
measuring faces firmly in
contact with the workpiece
without excessive force.
Depth Measurement
For depth measurement, set
the depth bar perpendicular
to the measured surfaces.
Internal Dimensions
For inside measurement,
put the inside jaws as deep
as possible and have the
measuring faces firmly in
contact with the workpiece
without excessive force.
Step Measurement
For step measurement,
have the step-measuring-
faces firmly in contact with
the workpiece.
