Leica GEOVID PRO Installation Manual page 12

BATTERY
• Only the battery type stated and described in this
manual must be used. Any improper use of the
batteries or the use of unapproved battery types
may result in an explosion!
• Do not expose the battery to sunlight, heat,
humidity or moisture for prolonged periods of time.
It must not be placed in a microwave oven or a
high-pressure container as this would pose a fire or
explosion hazard!
• Never dispose of batteries in fire and never attempt
to heat, recharge, dismantle or break open a
battery.
• Batteries must always be stored out of the reach of
children. Do not leave batteries lying around, as
they could be swallowed by children or pets.
CARRY STRAP
• The carry strap is usually made of very robust
material. You should therefore keep it out of the
reach of children. A carry strap is not a toy and
poses a strangulation risk.
• Use the carry strap only for its intended purpose on
a camera or on binoculars. Any other use poses the
risk of injury and may possibly result in damage to
the carry strap and is therefore not permitted.
• Carry straps should also not be used for cameras/
binoculars during sports activities that pose a risk
of entanglement (e.g. when mountain climbing and
similar outdoor activities).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
• Do not attempt to take the device apart yourself.
Repairs must only be carried out in authorized
workshops.
• Remove the battery from the housing if you will not
be using the product for an extended period of time.
• Low temperatures impair battery performance.
Carry the device close to the body in cold
conditions and use a fresh battery.
• Make sure to store the batteries in a cool, dry place.
• Depleted batteries must never be disposed of in
household waste as they contain toxic materials
that are harmful to the environment. Battery
collection points are provided at most large retail
outlets; alternatively, you can dispose of old
batteries at a local special waste collection point to
ensure correct recycling.
• Do not touch the glass surfaces with your fingers,
especially if you have previously applied hand
cream, insect repellent, etc. These substances may
contain chemicals that damage or destroy the
coatings on the glass surfaces.
MEASURING VALUES
• The influence of all ballistically relevant influencing
factors is greatly increased at longer ranges and
considerable variations may occur. The ballistic
values displayed should therefore only be viewed as
a guideline.
• Regardless of whether this information is used, you
are responsible for assessing the relevant hunting
situation.
• Leica Camera AG does not accept liability for the
accuracy of values transmitted from third-party
devices.
• Powerful electric fields, e.g. emanating from radar
systems, may cause errors and/or faulty values.
• The geomagnetic field can similarly cause value
deviations.
