sunlight, extreme cold and wet/moist conditions as these will lead to rapid changes which reduces
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.
