Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2656977A2] The method (200) involves providing an electric power tool with a sensor i.e. acceleration sensor. Determination is made (210) to check whether the sensor or transmission link includes an error between the sensor and an evaluation circuit. Checking process is performed for a time period during an operation of the electric power tool and/or during a rest break of the electric power tool. Acoustic and/or optical warnings are delivered (230) to a user of the electric power tool, if the error is recognized. A mode of operation of the electric power tool is changed (240) if the error is recognized. An independent claim is also included for an electric power tool.
