2.1.2 Safety measures
You should not use, keep or store the product in locations exposed to intense
sunlight or high temperatures, such as the dashboard or in the trunk of the car. The impact
of sunlight or heat may cause leakage of electrolyte from the batteries, overheating, or
explosion, and as a consequence of fire, burns and other injuries. High temperatures can
also cause deformation of the product case.
Do not store the equipment in humid or dusty areas. This may cause fire, electric
shock or other damage.
Do not expose your product to strong impacts and mechanical stresses that may
damage the product.
2.1.2.1 Prevention of malfunctions.
1) Avoid exposure to strong magnetic fields.
Do not keep the product in close proximity to electric motors and other
equipment generating strong electromagnetic fields. Exposure to strong magnetic
fields may cause a malfunction of the product.
2) Do not allow condensation.
Moving the equipment rapidly from high-temperature zone to low temperature and
vice versa can cause condensation (water droplets) on the outer and inner surfaces of the
product. To prevent this effect, you can place the product inside a sealed plastic bag and
wait for the slow temperature equalization, and then remove the product from the
package.
3) The formation of condensation inside the product.
If you notice condensation immediately stop using the product. Continued use can
lead to product malfunction. Remove the batteries and wait until the moisture before
resuming work with the product.
4) Long-term storage.
If the product is not used for a long time, remove batteries and store the product in a
cool, dry place. The prolonged storage of the product with the installed batteries reduces
battery life and there is the risk of damage to the product of the electrolyte from the
batteries.
2.1.2.2 Safety measures when handling the product
1) The product is a precision instrument. Do not drop the product and avoid
mechanical action on it.
2) The product is not waterproof; it can not be used under high humidity or
underwater. If the product gets wet, immediately switch off the product and contact at
«Quarta - Rad» Ltd. If the product has a small amount of water or it has been exposed to
salty air, switch off the product, wipe it dry with a clean cloth and place in a warm dry room
and dry to completely remove moisture from the interior volume of the product.
3) Do not leave the product near devices that generate strong magnetic fields, such
as near magnets or electric motors. Do not use or leave the product in the places of strong
electromagnetic signals, such as near the radio transmitters towers. Strong
electromagnetic signals can cause problems with the product.
4) Do not leave the product in places with high temperatures, such as a car under
direct sunlight. High temperatures can cause damage to the product.
5) Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the product.
6) The dust from the LCD should be carefully removed with a soft cloth. Do not use
for cleaning of the case and LCD of the product cleaners containing organic solvents. If the
product is heavily polluted, visit the customer support of the company «Quarta - Rad» Ltd.
7) Do not place the product in a microwave oven and do not conduct surveys when
the air ionizer-ozonizers are switched on.
8) Do not allow extraneous objects into this product through the perforations.
9) You should be particularly cautious when the shutter is open (see art. 1.3.1), since
the detector window is closed with a very thin plate of mica, which can easily be damaged
by extraneous objects.
