measurement. Use the supplied windscreen to cover the 
microphone when applicable.

meter has not been used for a long period of time. 

 

3.  Do not store or operate the instrument in areas of high temperature or 

humidity. 

 

4.  Keep meter and microphone dry. 

 

5.  Avoid severe vibration. 
6.  Remove the battery when the meter is to be stored for long periods of 

time.
