- It must be absolutely ensured that the unit does not find its way
a˝accidentally into Zone 0. In order to guarantee this, the carrying
ststrap of the unit must be attached additionally to the belt of the
u˝user or to a loop attached to his belt. The length of the carrying
ststrap must be so adjusted that when the unit hangs freely on the
c˝carrying strap, the Ex-Pt 720 maintains a spacing of 50cm to the
bboundary area of Zone 0.
