2. Warnings and legal information
Legal information and responsibility
DEIF takes no responsibility for installation or operation of the engine set. If there is any doubt
about how to install or operate the engine controlled by the unit, the company responsible for the
installation or the operation of the set must be contacted.
Electrostatic discharge awareness
Sufficient care must be taken to protect the terminals against static discharges during the
installation. Once the unit is installed and connected, these precautions are no longer necessary.
Safety issues
Installing the unit implies work with dangerous currents and voltages. Therefore, the installation
should only be carried out by authorised personnel, who understand the risks involved in working
with live electrical equipment.
Factory settings
The unit is delivered with certain factory settings. Given the fact that these settings are based on
average values, they are not necessarily the correct settings for matching the individual engine.
Thus precautions must be taken to check the settings before running the engine.
Definitions
Throughout this document a number of notes and warnings will be presented. To ensure that these
are noticed, they will be highlighted in order to separate them from the general text.
Notes
Warnings
The notes provide general information, which will be helpful for the reader to
bear in mind.
The warnings indicate a potentially dangerous situation, which could result in
death, personal injury or damaged equipment, if certain guidelines are not
followed.
Be aware of the hazardous live currents and voltages. Do not touch any AC
measurement inputs as this could lead to injury or death.
The units are not to be opened by unauthorised personnel. If opened anyway, the
warranty will be lost.
