Caution
The battery used in this device may present a risk of fire or chemical burn if mistreated.
Do not recharge, disassemble, heat above 100°C or incinerate. Replace with a 1.5V
Alkaline battery C-Cells. Use of another battery may present a risk of fire or explosion.
Dispose of used batteries promptly. Check for signs of battery (electrolyte) leakage. If
leakage has occurred, the PCB must be cleaned in an approved manner by a competent
(trained) person. Keep away from children.
Maintenance
Prior to each use of the logger check the Electrocorder casing for signs of damage
(cracks, broken or loose parts) or misuse. Check the leads for any signs of damage,
ensure the outer insulation later is not broken. If the unit is damaged in any way it must
NOT
be used and should be returned to the supplier. The unit must not be used for any
