Important Safety Directions and General Remarks
The following instructions should be carefully read and understood prior to first use of the
moisture meter. No warranty claim can be accepted for any damage caused by non-
observance of these instructions. The manufacturer can also not assume any responsibility for
incidental or consequential damages.
The instructions for use of the meter and of the electrodes should be carefully observed to

measuring sensors.

constantly too high an ambient air humidity (>90 % R.H.),
dust and inflammable gases or vapours as well as air containing solvents,
ambient temperatures exceeding 50 °C,
ambient temperatures below the freezing point,
