WARNING
Unexpected movement of machines caused by radio devices or mobile phones
When radio devices or mobile phones with a transmission power > 1 W are used in the
immediate vicinity of components, they may cause the equipment to malfunction.
Malfunctions may impair the functional safety of machines and can therefore put people in
danger or lead to property damage.
•
If you come closer than around 2 m to such components, switch off any radios or mobile
phones.
•
Use the "SIEMENS Industry Online Support app" only on equipment that has already been
switched off.
WARNING
Unrecognized dangers due to missing or illegible warning labels
Dangers might not be recognized if warning labels are missing or illegible. Unrecognized
dangers may cause accidents resulting in serious injury or death.
•
Check that the warning labels are complete based on the documentation.
•
Attach any missing warning labels to the components, where necessary in the national
language.
•
Replace illegible warning labels.
WARNING
Unexpected movement of machines caused by inactive safety functions
Inactive or non-adapted safety functions can trigger unexpected machine movements that
may result in serious injury or death.
•
Observe the information in the appropriate product documentation before
commissioning.
•
Carry out a safety inspection for functions relevant to safety on the entire system,
including all safety-related components.
•
Ensure that the safety functions used in your drives and automation tasks are adjusted
and activated through appropriate parameterizing.
•
Perform a function test.
•
Only put your plant into live operation once you have guaranteed that the functions
relevant to safety are running correctly.
