1.4 Using the device
The VELOX is an electrical device that is operated at extra-low voltage. It has been
designed so that no live parts are accessible. However, if ambient conditions are un-
favourable or if the controller or power adapter is damaged, this protection may no
longer be assured. Therefore, please follow the instructions below to avoid damage to
the device and the associated danger of contact with live parts (e.g., electric shock):
– Only use the power adapter supplied by PARI to operate the VELOX (Fuhua
UE05WV or Friwo FW7575M, output extra-low voltage 5 VDC).
– Never leave the VELOX unattended while it is in use.
– For safety reasons, always disconnect the power adapter from the socket under
the following circumstances:
– if a malfunction occurs during operation
– before cleaning and maintaining the device
– immediately after use
– Never pull the power adapter out of the socket by the cable.
– Make sure that the cable is never kinked, pinched or jammed. Do not pull the cable
over sharp edges.
– Keep the VELOX and the cable away from hot surfaces (e.g., stove top, electric
fire, open fire). Direct heat may damage the VELOX housing or the cable insula-
tion.
– Keep the power adapter away from domestic animals (e.g., rodents). They may
damage the cable insulation.
– The VELOX must not be operated and/or the power adapter must be unplugged
from the socket immediately if the controller or the power adapter is damaged, or if
a fault is suspected.
