  5. Safety instructions

Damage  caused  by  non-observance  of  this  operating 
manual can lead to forfeiture of the warranty! We shall not 
assume any liability for subsequent damage!

We shall not assume any liability for damage to items or 
persons caused by improper handling or non-observance

Dear Customer, the following safety and hazard notices not only serve 
the protection of your health but also the protection of the appliance. 
Please read the following points carefully!

•   Do not use this product in hospitals or medical institutions. Although 

the outdoor sensor only emits relatively weak radio signals, these may 
cause interference to life-support systems. The same can also apply 
in other areas.

•   The base station is only suited for dry, indoor premises. Do not expose 

it to direct sunlight, extreme heat, cold, dampness or humidity.

•   For safety and licensing reasons, it is not permitted to convert or modify 

the product.

•   Do not leave the packaging material lying around. Plastic foil and bags, 

polystyrene parts etc. are dangerous toys in the hands of children.

•   Handle the product with care! Blows or impact, or dropping it even 

from a small height will damage it.
