Safety

The HMW90 series transmitter

delivered to you has been tested and

approved as shipped from the factory. Note the following precautions:

WARNING

Connect only de-energized wires.

CAUTION

Do not modify the unit. Improper modification can damage the product

or lead to malfunction.

ESD Protection

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can cause immediate or latent damage to

electronic circuits. Vaisala products are adequately protected against

ESD for their intended use. It is possible to damage the product,

however, by delivering electrostatic discharges when touching,

removing, or inserting any objects inside the equipment housing.

To make sure you are not delivering high static voltages yourself:

- Handle ESD sensitive components on a properly grounded and

protected ESD workbench.

- Always hold component boards by the edges and avoid touching the

component contacts.

Recycling

Recycle all applicable material.

Dispose of the unit according to statutory regulations.

Do not dispose of with regular household refuse.
