Changing locations
Especially when moving from a cold to a warm environment, for exam-
ple, when taking the instrument into a heated room after it has been
stored overnight in a car, condensation may form on the circuit board,
depending on the humidity of the room.
This physical effect, which cannot be prevented in the design of any
instrument, leads to false measured data. In such circumstances, there-
fore, the display shows no measured data. Please wait for about 5
minutes in such cases until the instrument has "acclimatised" before
continuing with the measurement procedure.
