IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Condensation
• Should this device be cold and be brought into a warm and possibly damp environment, condensation
can build up inside it. Condensation can hinder the proper functioning of the device. In extreme cases,
condensation can also result in damages caused by a short circuit. Leave the device in a warm, dry
environment for about 1-2 hours in order to dry up or release any possible condensation before you use it
again.
Batteries
•
Caution:
There is danger of explosion from improper replacement of the batteries. Replace batteries only
with the same or equivalent type of battery.
• Always change the entire battery pack. Do not mix old and new batteries, or batteries with different charge
state.
• Make sure the batteries are correctly inserted. Observe the polarity (+) plus / (-) negative on the battery and
the housing. Improperly inserted batteries can lead to leakage or, in extreme cases, a fire or an explosion.
• Never expose batteries to excessive heat (e.g. bright sun, fire), and never throw them into fire. The batteries
could explode.
• The connections must not be short-circuited.
• Remove used batteries. Remove the batteries if you know that the device will not be used for a longer period
of time. Otherwise, the batteries could leak and cause damage.
• Keep batteries out of reach of small children. If batteries have been swallowed, seek immediate medical
attention.
• Non-rechargeable batteries must not be recharged.
• Rechargeable batteries are to be removed from the device before being charged.
• Only use top-quality batteries. Cheap batteries could leak and result in damages.
• If the batteries leak, remove them with a cloth and dispose of them accordingly. Prevent battery acid from
coming into contact with skin and eyes. If you do get battery acid in your eyes, flush them thoroughly with
lots of water and consult a physician immediately. If battery acid comes into contact with your skin, wash the
affected area with lots of water and soap.
