Usage Notes

Follow these precautions to ensure safe operation and to obtain the full benefits of the various func­tions.
A laser beam is output from the laser output connector during operation. The laser beam is invisible. To prevent eye damage, do not look directly into the connector or look at it through a magnifying glass while the power is on.

Direct sunlight
High temperature High humidity
Dust
• Do not store or use the product where it could be exposed to direct sunlight, high temperature or humidity, or condensation. Under such condi­tions, the product may be damaged and insula­tion may deteriorate so that it no longer meets specifications.
• To avoid damage to the product, do not allow the product to get wet, and do not use it when your hands are wet.
• Do not use the product where it may be exposed to corrosive or combustible gases. The product may be damaged.
• To avoid damage to the product, protect it from vibration or shock during transport and handling, and be especially careful to avoid dropping.
• The mating portions of the laser output connec ­tor ferrule and of the connector adapter are high-precision machined parts. Make sure that these portions are free of dust or other foreign matter when connecting them. In particular, the optical output connector ferrule requires meticu­lous care. If there is dust in the interface or a scratch on the optical output connector ferrule, the 3662-20/3663-20 may not satisfy perfor­mance specifications.
• After use, always turn OFF the power.
• Be sure to replace the cap to prot ect the device
from dust when the 3662-20/3663-20 is not in use.
• The Battery replacement indicator appears when
battery voltage becomes low. Replace the batter­ies as soon as possible.
• Use the specified battery (LR6 alkaline battery)
only. Other batteries (manganese batteries, for example) run out more quickly than alkaline bat­teries.

Handling Optical Fiber Cable
Follow the precautions below to prevent damage to the optical fiber cables.
• Do not insert at an angle.
• Do not bend the cable at the neck o f the con­nector.
