Use and Handling

The equipment contains sensitive parts that can be damaged by incorrect handling. Do not throw or drop the equipment or subject it to mechanical shock. When transporting in a vehicle, ensure the devices are secured and adequately cushioned, so they cannot fall and so that no damage can occur. Use of the carry case for storing equipment is recommended.
No user-serviceable parts inside, except for Touch-Pro battery pack. The equipment must only be serviced or disassembled by the manufacturer or its authorised repair centre.
The Touch-Pro base unit and outstation units are each powered by an internal battery which may present a risk of fire or chemical burn if the equipment is mistreated. Do not disassemble, heat above 100°C, or incinerate.
Normal operating temperature: -20°C to +50°C. Do not expose to direct sunlight for prolonged periods. Do not mount on apparatus that can exceed this temperature range. Do not store above 30°C for prolonged periods. A different temperature range applies during charging.
Normal operating temperature (mains adapter): 0°C to 40°C.
Do not handle or carry equipment using cables. This can cause permanent damage and is not covered by warranty.
When removing cables from the equipment (e.g., headset, charger, etc), do not pull the cable; be sure to hold the cable using the connector. Remove the mains-powered charger from the mains outlet by using the body of the charger, not the attached lead.
Store the equipment in the carry case. The equipment can become damaged by applying heavy loads or forces to it.
Ensure the Touch-Pro equipment is always placed in a suitable location so that it does not fall. Do not place where someone can tread on it. Damage to the unit, particularly the LCD screen could result.
The equipment may be cleaned by use of a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild cleaning fluid (e.g. a diluted domestic dish-washing liquid). Dry immediately after cleaning using a dry soft cloth. Ensure all connection points have a water-tight cover attached during cleaning, to prevent water ingress. When the connectors are not in use, keep the inside of the connectors clean and cover them with a protective cover. Do not allow liquid, moisture, or small particles to enter the equipment or connector.
Only use the equipment when it is safe to do so. The user should ensure they are using the equipment in a safe environment, and not at risk from road traffic, etc.
When using the headphones, ensure the volume is not excessive as hearing damage may result; adjust the volume if required.
Viewing the LCD in strong light can cause strain to your eyes.
Re-position if possible or consider changing to a high contrast mode.
