The device requires one nonstandard CR2 (3V) battery, which is included in the package. Ensure the battery is inserted correctly to power on the device.
5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Power On/Off
To power on the device, press the Power button (usually located on the top). The display will activate. The device will automatically power off after a period of inactivity to conserve battery.
5.2 Mode Selection
The EV-GR1000 features multiple operating modes. Press the Mode button to cycle through available modes: Golf Mode, BRD (Bow/Rifle) Mode, and Scan Mode.

5.4 Golf Mode
In Golf Mode, the rangefinder provides flagpole-lock vibration and slope compensation. When the device locks onto a flagpole, it will vibrate to confirm the target. The slope compensation feature adjusts the distance reading based on elevation changes, providing a 'play-as' distance.

5.5 BRD (Bow/Rifle) Mode
In BRD Mode, the rangefinder displays the line of sight distance, horizontal distance, and slope angle. This mode is ideal for bow and rifle shooting, providing precise angle compensation for accurate targeting.

5.6 Scan Mode
Scan Mode allows for continuous ranging of moving objects or when sweeping across a landscape. Press and hold the Power button to activate continuous measurement.
5.7 Unit Switching (Meters/Yards)
To switch between meters and yards, press and hold the Mode button for a few seconds until the unit changes on the display.
6. Maintenance
