This product uses semiconductors that can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD).
9.2 Safety Precautions
CAUTION
PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING
ELECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES.
Please read the following safety precautions prior to fitting the COVVI Power Supply.
• The Power Supply should only be fitted by a certified prosthetist.
• This product is not designed to be disassembled or serviced. COVVI Ltd. and COVVI USA INC have the
right to void the warranty of all products that have any type of modification or damage caused by any
unauthorised or untrained personnel. Any damage caused by intentional harm or neglect will not be
covered under the warranty.
• Please make sure the Power Supply is
OFF
before connecting/disconnecting the prosthetic device as this
will avoid any unpredictable spikes in the electric current from the batteries.
• Do
NOT
attempt to use the prosthetic device while the batteries are charging. When the batteries are
charging, the power will automatically turn off. If for any reason the power does not turn off while charging,
using the prosthetic device can be potentially unsafe.
• Do
NOT
use the Power Supply if there is any visible sign of damage to the Power Supply charger, Power
Plug and/or Cables.
• Do
NOT
expose the Power Supply to an open flame or submerge it in water. This could damage the screen
and affect the battery’s ability to hold charge.
• Do
NOT
use any solvents or abrasives to clean the Control Panel as this might damage the paint finish,
the clarity of the screen or integrity of the silicone moulding.
• Do
NOT
fit the batteries into a small, enclosed space. The batteries are designed to inflate when they fail.
Stopping this inflation may cause the generation of excessive heat, injury, or death.
• Individuals who are exposed to hazardous environments that contain flammable liquid or gas should
NOT
use the COVVI Power Supply when in those environments.
• Ensure access to wall plug to enable easy isolation if required.
