Use  only  a  source  of  AC  power  supply  that  complies  with  local  building  and  electrical 
regulations and which has both overload and ground-fault (earth fault) protection. 

 

Before  using  the  device,  check  that  the  power  distribution  equipment  and  cables  are  in 
perfect condition and rated for the current required by all connected devices. 

 

Isolate the device from power supply immediately if the power cable or the power plugs 
are in any way damaged, defective or wet, or if they show signs of overheating. 

 

Do not expose the device to rain or moisture.

approved by an official body such as, e.g. TÜV (German Technical Monitoring Association), 
a safety attachment for the total weight it secures. The safety cable must comply with EN 
60598-2-17 section 17.6.6 and be capable of bearing a static suspended load 10 times the 
weight of the device.
