adequate precautions against airborne dust and dirt. Otherwise
irreparable malfu nctions could occur.

Installation

N’installez pas et ne laissez pas le moniteur :

• A des endroi ts exposés à des températu r es ex t r ê mes, par
exemple à proximité d’un radiateur, d’un conduit de chauffage
ou exposés aux rayons directs du soleil. L’exposition du
moniteur à des températures extrêmes, comme dans l’habitacle
d’un véhicule garé en plein soleil ou à proximité d’un conduit
de chauffage r isque d’entraîner des dé formations du boîtier ou
des problèmes de fonctionnement.

• A des endroits soumis à des vibrations mécaniques ou à des
chocs.

• A proximité d’a ppareils générant de puissants champs
magnétiques, comme un téléviseur ou d’autres appareils
électroménagers.

• A des endroits soumis à des quantités inhabituelles de
poussière, de saletés ou de sable, par exemple à côté d’une
fenêtre ouverte ou d’ une porte donnant sur l’extérieur. En cas
d’installation temporaire à l’extérieur, veillez à pre ndre les
précautions requises contre la poussière et les saletés en
suspension dans l’air, faute de quoi des dommages irréparables
risquent de se produire.
