uations.
This product is fitted with batteries and must not be disposed of in normal household
waste at the end of its life.

The function of medical equipment near your product can be impaired. Bear in mind

This device is not waterproof. Do not keep the device or its accessories in moist envi-
ronments (in bathrooms and shower rooms for example).
Rain, moisture, liquids and water potentially contain minerals which can cause the
electrical circuitry to corrode.
Switch off your mobile phone when in potentially explosive areas and observe all
warning signs. Potentially explosive areas also include places where switching off vehi-
cle engines is normally recommended. It is at these kinds of places that flying sparks
can be the cause of explosions or fires with resulting injuries, and there may be a risk
to life. This pertains to petrol stations and chemical factories for example.
These areas include spaces under ship decks, transportation and storage systems for
hazardous chemicals, areas in which the air contains chemical substances or fine par-
ticles (such as dust or metal powder particles).
