the following conditions for temperature, humidity, and ventilation.

Temperature

The unit can be operated in the temperature range of 10 to 40 °C.

Humidity

The unit can be operated in environments with up to 95% relative humidity (up to 40 °C),
decreasing 5% per °C from 40 to 50 °C. Do not expose it to any environmental conditions or
changes to environmental conditions that can cause condensation to form inside the unit.

Ventilation
