NOTICE:
During measurement: Keep cabinet door closed
An open cabinet door results in measurement errors.

WARNING:
Risk to health through contact with toxic gases
The modules and devices contain enclosed potentially dangerous gases that
can escape due to a defect or leak. Refer to the Table below for these gases.
If a leak occurs, the concentrations inside the enclosed device can increase up
to a certain concentration. These concentrations are also shown in the Table.
Regularly check the state of the device/module seals.
Only open the device when well ventilated, especially when a leak of a
device component is suspected.
