Preventing damage to property
2.5.1
Short circuit caused by incorrect connection
Incorrect electrical connection can cause a short circuit, thereby damaging the hand-held scanner.
Always have the hand-held scanner connected by a qualified electrician in accordance with the connection
diagram.
2.5.2
Storage at too high a temperature
A thermal fuse prevents the hand-held scanner getting too hot during operation and triggering an explosion. There is
also a risk of the hand-held scanner getting too hot if the hand-held scanner is stored outside of the permissible
ambient temperatures. The hand-held scanner is damaged as soon as the thermal fuse responds.
Only store the hand-held scanner within the permissible ambient temperatures.
2.5.3
Aggressive cleaning agents
Aggressive cleaning agents can attack and fade the scan window, thereby impairing the scanning functionality. In
extreme cases scanning is no longer possible.
Only use a damp cloth to clean the hand-held scanner.
2.5.4
Contact with chemicals
The enclosure of the hand-held scanner consists of polycarbonate that has only limited chemical resistance. Contact
with chemicals can break the enclosure.
Do not bring the hand-held scanner into contact with chemicals.
