Warnings
In the event of malfunctioning, switch the meter off immediately.
If the event that smoke develops or unusual odors become apparent, which are caused by either the meter or the power pack,
disconnect from mains power immediately and remove the rechargeable battery from the device in order to prevent possible fire.
Continuing to operate the meter or the power pack after such malfunctions have occurred may result in severe injury.
Please contact your local dealer or GOSSEN Service in order to eliminate malfunctioning. If you bring or send the meter in for repairs,
make sure that the rechargeable battery has first been removed.
Do not use the meter in proximity to flammable gases.
Electronic devices should never be used in proximity to flammable gases. Danger of explosion and fire is otherwise immanent.
Never hang the device from children with the carrying strap.
Danger of strangulation exists if the carrying strap is hung around the neck of a child.
Store the meter at a location which cannot be accessed by children.
The meter and its accessories include parts which can be swallowed. Make sure that these parts (e.g. housing covers, rechargeable
batteries etc.) do not fall into the hands of children who might swallow them. Otherwise, danger of suffocation prevails.
Use suitable cables only.
Use included, original GOSSEN cables only for connection to external devices. GOSSEN assumes no liability if other cables are used.
