any other condition that may affect operation of the device. If damaged, have the device repaired before
use.
▶ When the device is brought into a warm environment from very cold conditions, or vice-versa,
allow it to become acclimatized before use.
▶ Although the device is protected against the entry of moisture, it should be wiped dry before being
put away in its transport container.

the battery for any signs of leakage or damage before reinserting it.
▶ To avoid pollution of the environment, the device and the batteries must be disposed of in
accordance with the currently applicable national regulations. Consult the manufacturer if you are
unsure of how to proceed.
▶ For operation of the device and for charging batteries, use only the AI E30 charging adapter or other
chargers recommended by the manufacturer. There is otherwise a risk that the device may be damaged.
