mains adapter, which has been specially tested for medical devices.
(See "Accessories" on page 53).

from the electricity supply. Make sure that the power cord is always
easily accessible so that the device can be disconnected from the

please remove the batteries. In principle, all batteries can leak.
• Do not throw batteries onto a fire. They may explode or leak.

cessories. When using any other parts, the device may be damaged,
thereby endangering the user.

condition. Do not use the device if it is damaged, as this can lead to
injuries or inaccurate measurements.
