Cautions about using the Sensors
[Handling the temperature/humidity sensor]
- The temperature/humidity sensor should probably be changed after a period of about
one year. After removing the sensor from its package, please change the 
temperature/humidity sensor after one year's usage.
During use the temperature/humidity sensor will accumulate impurities (dirt) on the 
surface of the sensor is being used in a bad environment (smoky or dusty places) it 
may be necessary to change the sensor sooner.
- When the temperature/humidity sensor is not being used, please place it in the
attached vinyl bag with the drying agent included and store it in a cool dark place with 
a temperature of between 5 to 25
Ɏ and a humidity of below 30%RH.
- Attached to the temperature/humidity sensor are two stickers: a wetness detection
sticker and a temperature detection sticker. If either of the stickers shows abnormality, 
you should change the old sensor to a new one immediately.
