16.8 Care of the Mini O2DII<br />
Even though the Mini O2DII has been designed to be water resistant, avoid immersion in liquids <strong>and</strong> do<br />
not leave outside without protection.<br />
The Mini O2DII has been built to withst<strong>and</strong> minimal blows or falls but being a precision oxygen<br />
analyser it should be taken care of to guarantee correct long term efficiency.<br />
Use a damp cloth to clean the Mini O2DII.<br />
Protect the Mini O2DII from direct sunlight for long periods <strong>and</strong> do not expose it to extreme<br />
temperatures both high <strong>and</strong> low.<br />
The Mini O2DII sensor is an electrochemical mechanism containing a corrosive electrolyte.<br />
Always check that it is not leaking <strong>and</strong> avoid contact with parts of the body or clothes.<br />
In the event of contact with the electrolyte, wash the effected part abundantly with water – see Safety<br />
Instructions.<br />

INGESTION:<br />
EYES:<br />
potassium hydroxide is corrosive – contact with the skin can cause a<br />
