• Do not expose the device to any impacts or
vibrations.
• Perform function controls regularly as
described in the relevant section in this docu-
ment. Do not operate the device if it is dam-
aged or not working properly.

must stay turned off for at least 2 hours before
it can be turned on again. Otherwise, conden-
sation water will form which can damage the
electronics.
