	Tilt measurement The instrument's inbuilt tilt sensor quickly and simply determines tilts up to ± 45°. The tilt sensor can also provide you with true horizontal distances. Reliable measurements are therefore guaranteed.
	Multifunctional end piece Aim the instrument straight at the target point, whether measuring out of corners, slots or from edges: with this end piece you are prepared for all measuring situations. The instrument detects the end piece automatically, which helps you avoid expensive measuring errors.
	Automatic keypad and display illumination An built-in sensor detects if the environment is dark and switches on the illumination of the keypad and display. You can also measure in the dark without any problem.
	Multiple functions The Leica DISTO™ D3 can also calculate areas, volumes, room dimensions and various types of Pythagorean functions. A time delay release and enough memory for up to 20 measurements finish off the instruments wide range of functions – a concept designed to make your work easier.

The perfect way to achieve your measurement goals
Indirect Pythagorean measurement
	Single Pythagorean measurement Just two measurements are enough to indirectly calculate the horizontal or vertical distances. It is important to ensure the 2nd measurement is at right angles to the target object – easy with minimum measurements.
	Double Pythagorean measurement Using a tripod you can measure horizontal and vertical distances. The Leica DISTO™ D3 determines the results for you out of three measurements. Functions such as minimum and maximum measurement help you find the correct measuring point.
	Double Pythagorean measurement (chain values) With three measurements you can determine partial heights, e.g. window heights. Possible for horizontal and vertical distances.

	Tilt measurement The tilt sensor measures tilts up to ± 45° and a typical use is for determining the pitch of a roof. When measuring tilts, the instrument should be held in the horizontal position (± 10°).
	Horizontal distance The tilt measurement function allows you to determine a horizontal distance even if the target point is not directly visible. This is particularly useful when there are obstructions, e.g. walls directly between you and the target point.
	Room corner angle function The angle in a triangle can be determined by measuring the three sides. This function is suitable for e.g. checking a rightangled room corner. First, measure the two shorter sides and then take the length of the diagonal as the third measurement. The device then displays the room angle.
	Staking out function Two different distances (a and b) can be entered into the instrument and then subtracted from specific measured lengths. This enables you to see the direction in which the Leica DISTO™ D3 must be moved, the display shows a direction arrow with the current staking-out distance. At a distance of 0.1 m to the next staking-out point the instrument gives an audible signal.
