Caution
Always put the Field PG P4 down on its base. If you put it down on its interface
side you risk that it will fall over and damage sensitive internal components.

temperature fluctuation you have to acclimatize it to room temperature before you
start to operate it.

°
C to + 20
°
C and
after a waiting period of approx. 12 hours.
