2.1. Packaging, Transport, Storage
Visually inspect the package contents for signs of transport damage.
2.1.1. Packaging Material and Transport
The packaging material is inflammable, if it is disposed of improperly
by burning, lethal fumes may develop.
The packaging material can be kept and reused in the case of a return shipment. Improper or faulty
packaging may lead to transport damages.
Make sure to transport the device always in a safe manner and with the aid of suitable lifting
equipment if necessary. Do never use the electric connections for lifting. Before the transport, a clean,
level surface should be prepared to place the device on. The electric connections may not be
damaged when placing the device.
First Device Checkup
• Check the device for signs of transport damages.
• Please verify if the indications on the type plate correspond to your purchase order.
• Check if the equipment is complete ("Scope of Delivery", page 18).
Storage
If you do not wish to mount and install the device immediately, make sure to store it in a dry and clean
environment. Make sure that the device is not stored near strong heat sources and that no metal
chippings can get into the device.
The batteries have a self-discharging of approx. 1% per day. We
recommend to recharge the batteries every 3 month of storage. Use
delivered power cable.
