Please consider that damages caused by manual modifications to the device are not subject to warranty. 

 

This device contains no user-serviceable parts. Refer servicing to qualified technicians only. 

 

IMPORTANT:

 

The manufacturer will not accept liability for any resulting damages caused by the non-

Never use anything to cover the ground contact. 

 

Never run the device without lamp!
