Safety Precautions
Please read these safety precautions carefully before using your exposure meter. This
will help you to avoid damaging the product and prevent personal injury.
This icon identifies important warnings which should be read in any
case before the initial start-up of your GOSSEN product.
Warnings
In the event of malfunction, switch off the exposure meter immediately.
If the event that smoke develops or unusual odors become apparent, which are caused by
either the exposure meter or the power supply, disconnect from mains power immediately and
remove the rechargeable battery from the meter in order to prevent possible fire. Continuing
to operate the exposure meter or the power supply 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 been removed first.
Never use the exposure meter in proximity to flammable gases.
Electronic devices must not be used near flammable gases. Otherwise there would be danger
of explosion and fire.
Never hang the meter and/or the carrying strap around the head or neck of a child.
Danger of strangulation exists if the carrying strap is hung around the head or neck of a child.
Store the exposure meter at a location which cannot be accessed by children.
The exposure 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 only the included, original GOSSEN cables for connection to external devices. GOSSEN
assumes no liability if other cables are used.
Do not dismantle the exposure meter.
Never touch any parts located inside of the housing
– injury may result. Never attempt to
repair the meter yourself or try to open the meter. Repairs may only be made by qualified
personnel. If the meter
’s housing is damaged due to dropping or other external influences,
remove the rechargeable battery or power supply and contact your local dealer or GOSSEN-
Service for repair.
Avoid any and all contact with liquid crystals.
If the display is damaged (e.g. broken), danger of injury due to contact with glass shards or
discharge of liquid crystals exists. Make sure that skin, eyes and mouth do not come into
contact with the liquid crystals.
CD ROMs
The CD ROMs included with your exposure meter contain relevant documentation and
software. These CD ROMs cannot be played with an audio CD player, because they do not
contain any audio files. When CD ROMs are played with an audio CD player, interference
signals may be generated which lastingly damage human hearing or the audio components of
your stereo system.
