4.1 Transport
Check the instrument for any damage that may have been caused by
transport.
Obvious damage must be reported immediately.
CAUTION!
Damage through improper transport
With improper transport, a high level of damage to property
can occur.
▶
When unloading packed goods upon delivery as well as
during internal transport, proceed carefully and observe
the symbols on the packaging.
▶
With internal transport, observe the instructions in chapter
4.2 “Packaging and storage”.
If the instrument is transported from a cold into a warm environment, the
formation of condensation may result in instrument malfunction. Before
putting it back into operation, wait for the instrument temperature and the
room temperature to equalise.

-50 … +70 °C (-58 ... +158 °F) without liquid damping
-40 … +70 °C (-40 ... +158 °F) without liquid damping
■
Humidity: 35 ... 85 % relative humidity (no condensation)
