v
In order to maintain the “water and dust resistant performance” of the
unit, observe the following precautions.
- Make sure that the battery compartment lid, the side cover and the
top cover of the unit are fi rmly closed.
- Do not open the battery compartment lid while the unit is wet.
- Do not leave the unit in a wet state. Always wipe off any moisture
and properly dry the unit.
- Have the unit regularly checked and calibrated, to ensure continued
“water and dust resistant performance”.
- We recommend to have the packing inside the case, the side cover
and the top cover replaced regularly (fare-paying service). The cycle
of replacing the side cover and top cover is two years. The cycle of
replacing the waterproof parts of the case and the battery lid part is
5 years. If the cycle of replacing the waterproof parts have passed,
the “water and dust resistant performance” of the unit will no longer
be guaranteed. Regarding replacement of the packing, the side cover
and the top cover, please contact your supplier.
The life of the backup battery for the internal clock of the unit is lim-
ited. You should have the battery replaced about once every fi ve years.
Regarding replacement of the battery, please contact your supplier.
Please note that this product is warranted up to the product purchase price
against defects in material.
Dispose of the unit and of batteries only according to national and local
regulations at the place of use.
