•
This instrument has been designed with the utmost care. Ease of operation
and simplicity of maintenance have been a central theme in the product
development. With proper care the instrument should require very little
maintenance. Avoid operating the instrument in oily, wet, dirty, or dusty
environments.
•
If the outside of the instrument becomes soiled, it may be wiped clean
with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use harsh chemicals on the
surface which may damage the LCD or the plastic outside shell.
•
If a hazardous material is spilt on or inside the equipment, the user is re-
sponsible for taking the appropriate decontamination steps as outlined by
the national safety council with respect to the material.
•
Before using any cleaning or decontamination method except those rec-
ommended by Hart, users should check with an Authorized Service Cen-
ter (see Section 1.3) to be sure that the proposed method will not damage
the equipment.
•
If the AC adapter becomes damaged, have it replaced immediately. Never
disassemble the AC adapter or attempt to repair it.
•
If the instrument is used in a manner not in accordance with the equip-
ment design, the operation of the thermometer readout may be impaired
or safety hazards may arise.
