where it was stored, allow it to acclimate to the surrounding environment for at least 12 hours before
unpacking it from the shipping container.

1. Inspect the container for shipping damage. If you notice any damage, report it to the shipping
company immediately.

device.
3. Lift the device out of the carton, place it on the work surface.
CAUTION:
