Transient Operating Conditions
NOTE: Permissible transient environmental operating conditions: - Temperatures ranging from -20°C to 0°C or from +35°C to +50°C - Device will function for a minimum of 20 minutes when placed in an environment with temperatures ranging from -20°C to 0°C or from +35°C to +50°C after storage at room temperature (20 +/- 2°C) - Following storage at temperatures ranging from -20°C to 0°C or from +35°C to +50°C, the device will within 10 minutes after being returned to room temperature (20 +/- 2°C), function for a minimum of 20 minutes.
NOTE: Avoid exposing the unit to saline moisture. In case of exposure to saline moisture, clean the unit as described in ‘Cleaning and Disinfection'
Image on the display device hosting the Vscan Air app is dependent on ambient light; avoid direct sunlight or reflections from other light sources on the display when scanning and reviewing images. The display viewing angle should be as small as possible.
If you are having difficulty seeing the image due to the lighting conditions try to change brightness of the display device or change your position/location of use.
