CAUTION
Influence of weather conditions
Damage to devices as a result of direct sunlight or temperatures below
freezing.
When you are not using the device, do not expose it to direct sunlight
or to temperatures below 0 °C.
4.1.4 Setup location
Place the device on a flat, stable laboratory bench that is easily accessible
from the front and the side. Metrohm recommends setting the device up
at least 20 cm away from any parts above it or in its vicinity.
With this positioning of the device, there is no longer any residual risk of
damage caused by manual handling of loads.
Ensure that the device and its surroundings are properly illuminated.
