(Always observe)
Suspend operation immediately when any
abnormality occurs.
Continuing use can lead to fires or electric shocks.
Immediately turn OFF the power switch and
disconnect the power plug from the outlet. Contact
the dealer from which you purchased the product
for repairs.
Take care not to stab the human body with
the needle.
A needle is used for the measurement. Handle it
with extreme caution.
There is a risk of blindness, puncture wounds, or
cuts.
Do not touch the oxygen sensor with bare
hands if it is leaking.
A highly concentrated acetic acid solution is used
for the electrolyte inside the sensor. There is a risk
of serious eye injury if the electrolyte gets into the
eyes. Immediately rinse the eyes (including under
the eyelids) with clean running water for at least 15
minutes, and immediately seek medical attention
from an ophthalmologist.
If the electrolyte gets on the skin, wash with plenty
of water and seek immediate medical attention.
Perform measurements in an adequately
ventilated room.
Do not place your face near the unit or
smell odors during the measurement.
The PACK LEADER samples a mixture of low
oxygen gas or carbon dioxide gas, and discharges
it into the atmosphere when the measurement is
completed.
Conducting measurements in a poorly ventilated
room or taking a deep breath to smell the odors
can cause the user to lose consciousness or feel
unwell due to a lack of oxygen.
Do not touch the battery with bare hands if
it is leaking.
There is a risk of serious eye injury or inflammation
if the fluid leaking from the battery gets in the
eyes or on the skin. Immediately wash with clean
running water, and seek immediate medical
attention.
