Storage and operating environment
● To prevent making short-circuit
when removing the battery and charger from the case and storing them, apply
electrically resistant tape to the poles of the battery. Storing the battery
and charger as is may result in fire or burn injury due to short-circuit.
● Avoid storing the instrument in
places subject to extreme high, low or radically fluctuating temperature.
(Ambient temperature range during use: –20° C to +50° C)
● Distance measurements may take
longer when atmospheric conditions are poor such as when heat shimmer is
present. When storing the instrument, always put it in its case and avoid
storage in dusty location or location subject to vibration or extreme heat or
humidity.
● Whenever there is a sharp
temperature difference between the instrument’s storage and usage locations
allow the instrument to adjust to the ambient for an hour or more before use.
Be sure to protect the instrument from the sun if the location is subject to
intense direct sunlight.
● During surveys for which the
survey precision or atmospheric measurement method has been defined measure the
atmospheric temperature and pressure separately and enter those values rather
than using the Automatic Atmospheric Correction function.
● The battery should be charged
approximately once per month if the instrument is to be stored for an extended
period of time. The instrument should also be removed from its case
occasionally and aired out.
● In addition to these precautions, be sure to handle the instrument
properly at all times following the descriptions given in the various sections
of this manual to assure safe and proper measurements.

Transporting and carrying the instrument
● Be careful to protect this
instrument from shock of impact and excessive vibration which may result in
damage during transportation and shipment.
● When transporting the instrument,
always put it in the case and wrap shock-absorbing materials around it and be
sure it is handled as “FRAGILE”.
Checks and repairs
● Always check the instrument before
beginning work and check that the instrument is maintaining the proper level of
precision. Pentax bears absolutely no responsibility for damages due to survey
results obtained from surveys conducted without an initial instrument check.
Never disassemble the instrument, battery or charger
even if you do detect an abnormality as there is a risk of fire or electric
shock due to short - circuit. If you think the product requires repair, contact
the retail outlet where you purchased it or an authorized repair site.
● Never disassemble the instrument, battery or charger even
if you do detect an abnormality as there is a rink of fine or electric shock due to
short-circuit, If you think the product requires repair, contact the retail
outlet where you purchased it or an authorized repair site.
