Use / Operation
CAUTION
Do not let the device drop onto hard surfaces. This can result in malfunctions or functional failures.
Normal use of the device, without excluding hazards to the user, cannot be guaranteed.
The device is fragile.
To avoid overheating, the device must not be covered or used near heat sources or direct sunlight
and only be used at ambient temperatures between 0 °C and 40 °C.
The device may not be stored or operated in aggressive atmospheres or atmospheres containing
solvents!
The measuring device may be operated in residential and commercial areas.
Measurements must not be carried out on conductive surfaces.
Static charge - At low humidity levels, static electricity with high voltage can build up, favoured by
external circumstances (friction during material transport, high insulation value of the surrounding
area), which can lead to strong fluctuations in measured values. Even the instrument operator may -
inadvertently - contribute to the build-up of a static charge by the clothing worn. A considerable
improvement can be achieved by the operator and the measuring instrument being absolutely still
during measuring, as well as by earthing (contact with conducting metal, water or heating pipes,
etc.).
