Never touch the hot thermocouple probes or the thermal barrier without appropriate
protective clothing (protective gloves) after leaving the hot area.
Attention (Hot) Heat Sinks
If a heat sink is damaged, the cooling agent might leak out. This liquid is non-toxic. Wait

Skin contact:

Attention Overheating
The temp-gard basic is powered by two 1.5 Volts Mignon ALKALINE batteries. If these
batteries are subjected to temperatures above +70 °C over a long period of time they
might leak. A thermometer strip next to the battery case indicates exceeding temperatures.
Overheating might destroy the instrument. An overheated instrument always has to be
checked by technical service staff.
Attention Batteries
Leaking battery liquid (potash lye) attacks the mucous membranes. Avoid any contact with
eyes, mouth or nose. The liquid can be wiped off with a cloth. In case of skin contact, rinse
with water.
