* When protected by recommended semiconductor fuse.
Where several conductors are to be connected, the difference between the wires/cables used must not
exceed one DIN Standard size level.
Bei Mehrleiteranschluss darf maximal ein DIN-Normgrößen-Sprung zwischen den verwendeten Leitern
liegen.
En cas de raccordement de plusieurs conducteurs, il faut 1 écartement normalisé max. entre les
conducteurs.
In caso di collegamento a più conduttori, è ammesso al massimo un salto di grandezze DIN standard fra i
conduttori utilizzati.
En caso de conexión de múltiples conductores puede haber como máximo un salto de magnitud
normalizada DIN entre los conductores utilizados.

DANGER!
Hazardous Voltage. Will cause death or serious injury. Hazardous voltage is also present in the
OFF/STOP status of the soft starter when the supply voltage is switched on (Ue).
GEFAHR!
Gefährliche Spannung. Lebensgefahr oder schwere Verletzungsgefahr.Bei eingeschalteter
Versorgungsspannung (Ue) steht auch im AUS-/STOP-Zustand des Softstarters am Ausgang gefährliche

PERICOLO!
Tensione pericolosa. Può provocare morte o lesioni gravi. Con la tensione di alimentazione (Ue)
inserita, anche nello stato OFF/STOP del softstarter è presente tensione pericolosa in uscita.
¡PELIGRO!
Tensión peligrosa. Puede causar la muerte o lesiones graves. Si la tensión de alimentación está
conectada (Ue), existe también en la salida tensión peligrosa con el arrancador suave en estado OFF/ON.
