Health and Safety

CE conformity information :

The ICARUS 3D M2 is sold as a DIY printer kit and a stand-alone product. The kit
contains all the bits and pieces to construct your own 3D printer.  Additional protection
can be purchased separately.  

The stand-alone product is a finished product and complies with CE regulations.

! As the kit is not a finished product, compliance with the CE regulations depends on
the build-quality; also the following notes must be taken into account :

Electrical safety : 

The included power supply meets all the applicable European requirements and bears
the   CE-mark.     It   is   protected   against   overload   and   short   circuit   and   needs   no
modifications to function.  The working voltage of the 3D printer is 12Vdc and therefore
it's outside the scope of the Low Voltage Directive.

Always unplug before maintenance of modification !

Never pull the cable to disconnect the mains plug !

Never insert / disconnect the mains plug with damp hands !

Danger of suffocation

Keep packaging, film and packaging parts out of the reach of children !

Risk of poisoning

Keep   detergents,   lubricants   and   care   products   out   of   the   reach   of
children  !

Electromagnetic radiation (EMC)

Conductive   EMC   towards   the   public   distribution   network   is   not   an   issue   as   this   is
related to the power supply.
