  Do not leave the product unsupervised while in use. Make sure the product cannot tip over.

• Do not expose the inside of the battery compartment to rain or wet conditions. The product is only water resistant when the battery compartment is closed, locked, and without damages. Water entering the product increases the risk of electric shock.
