Keep the batteries out of childrens reach Any battery may leak battery acid if mixed with a different battery type, if inserted incorrectly (put in backwards) or if all batteries are not replaced or recharged at the same time. Do not mix old and new batteries. Don not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc), rechargeable (nickel-metal hydride, nickel-cadmium), or Lithium (Thionyl Chloride) batteries. Any battery may leak battery acid or explode if disposed of in fire or any attempt is made to charge a battery not intended to be recharged. Never recharge a cell of one type in a recharger mad for a cell of another type. Discard leaky batteries immediately. Leaky batteries can cause skin burns or other personal injury. When discarding batteries, be sure to dispose of them in the proper manner, according to your state and local regulations. Remove batteries before storing product for a prolonged period of time. Batteries let in the unit may leak and cause damage. Recommended type batteries 3.6V lithium disposables, Thionyl Chloride (Li-SOCI2). NEVER mix battery types. Change batteries when product ceases to operate satisfactorily. DO NOT use the AC adapter if it has been exposed to liquids, has been dropped, or is damaged. Protect the power cord. Place it so it is not walked on or pinched by appliance or other items. Warning: this product is not explosion proof and is not rated for intrinsically safe installations. 2.0 Introduction The VPt sensor integrates with Mesas ViewPoint software version 1.X or above.
