Ensure that the batteries are fully charged before storing. If
practical, store the batteries in a cool place, 10

ideal), but make sure the temperature is not likely to drop below
-0
o
C or the electrolyte may freeze and possibly split the case.
6.2 Cable Care
The cable connectors as well as the connectors on the GPR
Sensor and Display Unit need to stay clean and free of dust
and moisture. Use a brush or air spray to clean dust, lint and
other foreign particles from these connectors.
When the system is not being used, make sure the
connections are done up to prevent dust and moisture from
collecting inside. If the connectors are exposed, cover them
with some sort of dust cap.
Cables are designed to be as tough as practical.
Careless use of cables making them carry loads that they are
not designed for can cause internal damage.
Connectors are weak points in any system. With the use of
this product in rough, dusty and outdoor environments, users
can minimize potential down time if they care for cables and
treat connectors with respect.
Cables and connectors are not designed to suspend or tow
or otherwise carry the weight of systems. They are part of the
electronic circuit and should be treated accordingly. When not
in use they should be placed in their storage box.
