certification, recognition of any applicable technical capabilities, or establish a principal-agent
relationship of any form.
The data provided is believed to be accurate and applicable to the unit (s) indicated on the cover. The research engineering,

SAVING DATA
- Never attempt to turn off the power while data is being
written to Flash ROM (while a "now storing..." message
is shown). Turning the power off in this state results in
loss of all user data and may cause the system to freeze
(due to corruption of data in the Flash ROM). This means
that this instrument may not be able to start up properly,
even when turning the power on next time.
