WARNING
¤ Do not use this instrument in an ambient temperature of 35 °C or greater.
…… The performance may deteriorate significantly.
Also, dielectric degradation may occur, which may result in short circuit or fire.
¤ Unplug the power cord when the instrument is not in use.
…… Failure to observe the above may result in electric shock, fire or damage to internal
circuitry.
¤ Install the instrument where you can pull the power cord out anytime.
¤
When using the power cord, ensure there is no dust on the power plug. The AC
outlet used must be within the specified power requirement of 100 ~ 240V.
…… Failure to observe the above may result in fire.
¤ When using a power cord or an AC adapter, make sure to use the one provided
with this instrument.
…… Other commercially available cords may have different voltage specifications and
polarity, which could result in short circuit, fire or damage to the instrument.
¤ When charging the batteries by the instrument, do not insert or pull the batteries
out.
…… Failure to observe this may result in damage to battery or internal circuitry.
CAUTION
¤ Remove battery when the instrument will not be used for an extended period of
time.
Also, do not leave a discharged battery inside the instrument.
…… Failure to observe the above may result in battery leakage and damage to the
instrument.
¤ Do not perform measurements in environments exceeding the specified
temperature and RH levels of the instrument.
The instrument should not be exposed to direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
…… The instrument may not function properly outside the specified environment.
(10~35°C, 20~85%RH, with no condensation)
¤ Do not wipe the instrument with volatile solvents.
…… The body may be deformed or deteriorated. Use a soft dry cloth to remove stains.
If stains persist, soak the cloth in a neutral detergent or water and wipe the
instrument with the cloth. Never use volatile solvents such as thinner or benzene.
¤ Do not subject the instrument to strong shock. Do not place heavy objects on the
instrument or sensor.
…… Failure to observe the above may cause damage to the instrument.
¤ Do not move the main unit or the probe from a cold place to a warm place
quickly. It will cause condensation.
…… Even when used in an environment within the specified operating temperature and
humidity, a sudden temperature change may cause condensation. Condensation
generated on the sensor may cause inaccurate measurements. Condensation on metal
parts may cause rusting and lead to a malfunction.
