What happens here

To activate the self-leveling feature of the Milwaukee laser level, locate the 'On/Off/Lock' dial on the side of the device. Rotate the dial from the 'Off' or 'Locked' position to the 'On' (unlocked) position. The internal pendulum will then automatically settle, and the laser will project a level line. If the laser level is tilted beyond its self-leveling range, the laser line will flash as a warning.

Goal: Power on the laser level and allow it to self-level for accurate projections.
