CARE AND MAINTENANCE:

• Avoid placing the units in areas prone to vibration and shock as these may cause damage.

• Avoid areas where the units can be exposed to sudden changes in temperature, i.e. direct sunlight, extreme cold and wet/moist conditions as these

will lead to rapid changes which reduce the accuracy of readings.

• When cleaning the LCD and casing, use a soft damp cloth only. Do not use solvents or scouring agents.

• Do not submerge the units into water.

• Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and damage. Replace only with new batteries of the recommended size.

• Do not make any repairs to the units. Please return it to the original point of purchase. Opening and tampering with the units may invalidate the

warranty.
