1 SAFETY 

 

1.1 Danger 

 

 
Repairs may be carried out by an electrician only!   
Improper repairs may endanger and injure the user! 
To prevent electric shocks, always comply with the following   
information:   
• If the appliance is faulty, the housing and frame may be live!   
• Do not touch any modules in the appliance, even modules can be 
live!  
• Before commencing repairs, always disconnect the appliance from 
the power supply!   
• If tests have to be performed while the appliance is live, always 
use a residual-current-operated circuit-breaker!   
• The protective conductor connection must not exceed the standard 
values! This connection is extremely important for personal safety 
and function of the appliance!   
• When repairs are complete, conduct a test in accordance with 
VDE 0701 or national regulations!   
• When repairs are complete, conduct a function test!   
• When repairs are complete, conduct a leak rate test!   
 
 
 

1.2 Caution! 

 

 
Always comply with the following instructions to prevent damage to 
the appliance or to components:   
• Comply with ESD instructions!   
• Never attempt repairs by randomly replacing components!   
• Always proceed systematically and follow the troubleshooting 
instructions!  
• Do not test the high-voltage circuit while the appliance is running – 
Danger of death -!   
• Always discharge the high-voltage capacitor before testing!
