Connection
When connecting your appliance be sure to correctly observe the
following instructions:
Power through Car Adapter
•
The car adapter should only be connected to the lighter so-
cket of a car (car battery = DC 12V , truck battery = DC
24V !). If you are in any doubt about the power source in
your car, contact your car manufacturer.
Power supply (optional)
•
The outlet must be in the vicinity of the appliance and must
be easily accessible.
•
To disconnect your appliance from the power source, re-
move the mains adapter from the power socket.
•
Only use the mains adapter on grounded sockets at
AC
100 – 240 V~ AC, 50/60 Hz
. If you are unsure about
the power supply to the place of use, ask the relevant en-
ergy supplier.
•
Use only the power adapter provided with your appliance.
•
Do not cover the power supply unit, in order to avoid dam-
age through unacceptable warming.
•
Stop using the power supply unit if the housing or the feed
line to the device is damaged. Replace it with a power sup-
ply unit of the same type.
•
For additional safety, we recommend the use of a surge
protector in order to protect your appliance from damage
from spikes or lighting strikes on the power network.
