sources of ignition. 2. Precautions: a). Do not operate the thermometer in the presence of strong electrical or magnetic fields, as this may prevent correct operation. b). Use and store the thermometer away from direct sunlight or other strong source of light, high temperatures, high humidity or dust.
If repair or servicing is required, contact the supplier or RS Components. The address is given at the end of these instructions. b). Periodically clean the case with a dry cloth. Do not use abrasives or solvents.
