GENERAL PRECAUTIONS:
You alone are responsible for how you use
your SCiO Molecular Sensor (SCiO) and any
consequences of its use. You must always
switch off your SCiO whenever the use of an
electronic or Bluetooth™ enabled device is
prohibited. Use of your SCiO is subject to the
safety measures designed to protect users
and their environment.
The battery in your SCiO is NOT fully charged
when shipped. Your warranty is INVALIDATED
if you disassemble or attempt to disassemble
the SCiO in any manner.
IMPORTANT HEALTH INFORMATION
AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
When using this product, the safety precau-
tions detailed in this document must be
followed. Failure to follow the documented
safety precautions can result in injury, electric
shock, fire and equipment damage.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY:
SCiO Molecular Sensor is designed to be
charged ONLY with the USB charging cable
provided. Other usage or charging attempts
may be dangerous and will invalidate any
warranty, and can prevent your ability to
operate this product.
Caution: Connecting to improperly grounded
equipment can result in an electrical shock to
your device. This product is provided with a
USB charging cable to connect directly to a
desktop or notebook computer. Be sure your
computer is properly grounded (earthed)
before connecting this product to your
computer.
BATTERY PACKS:
This product contains a Lithium Polymer
battery pack. There is a risk of fire or burns if
the battery pack is handled or accessed. Do
not attempt to open or service the battery
pack. Do NOT attempt to disassemble, crush,
puncture, short external contacts and/or
circuits, dispose of in fire or water. Do not
charge the device at temperatures beyond
0-35°C (32-95°F). Battery performance will
be affected is the temperature is below 0°C
(32°F) even if the battery is fully charged. The
SCiO Battery Pack is not user replaceable. The
Battery Pack can only be replaced by an
authorized Consumer Physics service provider.
Read the following information carefully to
ensure ideal performance of your SCiO
Molecular Sensor:
ENVIRONMENTAL RESTRICTIONS:
Do not use this device in gas stations, fuel
depots, chemical plants, or where blasting
operations are in progress or in potentially
explosive atmospheres.
Some devices with Bluetooth can interfere
with digital hearing aids. In the event of such
an interference, contact our customer
support support@consumerphysics.com to
discuss alternatives.
Use only the cables and other parts
supplied with in this package to connect
SCiO Sensor to any other equipment.
Using any parts other than those supplied
with your SCiO may damage the SCiO
and/or the other equipment.
Do not expose the SCiO or the Solids
sample holder to water or extreme
conditions (heat, cold, dust) as it may
malfunction or cease to work as designed.
Do not attempt to disassemble or repair your
SCiO yourself. Disassembly of your
SCiO
unit
voids the limited warranty and may result in
damage and/or physical harm.
Keep SCiO and its accessories out of the
reach of children at all times.
The SCiO optical head is fragile and any
type of strong impact will damage the
device and void the limited warranty.
Do not paint or decorate your SCiO or its
accessories.
Do not use chemicals, harsh solvents,
chemical solvents or aerosols to clean the
device or its accessories.
Clean the optical head of the SCiO with a
soft dry cloth ONLY.
Do not allow the optical head to come into
contact with water or any other liquid
under any circumstances. Failure to keep
the optical head dry at all times voids the
limited warranty.
Do not rapidly change the ambient air
temperature around the device as it may
cause internal condensation which will
damage the device and void the limited
warranty.
Safety and Regulatory Guide
Disposal. If it becomes necessary to dispose
of your SCiO Sensor, do so in a responsible
and legal manner according to the applicable
