4. Precautions

1.

Handle with care. Your instrument uses a precise mechanism
to expand and contract the pressure chamber. Rough treat-
ment can damage the mechanism.

2.

Avoid direct contact with water and high levels of 

condensation. This instrument is not waterproof, and its 
vents are intended only for air circulation.

3.

Because the thermometer is also made with precision parts,
the instrument must not be stored in extreme temperatures.
Avoid rapid temperature changes and strong physical shocks.
The instrument must not be placed near heating units or in
direct sunlight.

4.

For accurate barometric pressure readings, keep the 
instrument in a vertical position.

5.

Dismantling the instrument can affect its accuracy.

6.

Remove stains with a soft cloth and mild detergent.

7.

Never use in environments that contain solvents like acetone,
benzene, alcohol, or acids and bases.
