Dear Customer: The following safety information is intended not only for the protection of
the device but also for the protection of your health. Please read the following items care-
fully:
• For safety reasons, any unauthorized conversions and/or modifications to the product are
not permitted.
• The mains unit is constructed according to protection class II. Only a proper mains socket
(100-240 V/50-60 Hz) of the public supply net must be used as voltage source.
• Use only the enclosed mains unit or batteries for power supply.
• The mains socket must be close to the device and easily accessible.
• Never touch the power unit with wet or damp hands. There is a risk of potentially fatal
electric shock!
• Do not touch the mains unit if it is damaged. First, power down the respective mains
socket on all connections (e.g. via the respective circuit breaker and FI switch) and then
carefully pull the mains unit from the mains socket. Never use the product if the mains
unit is damaged.
• Never replace a damaged connection cable of the mains unit. If the connection cable is
damaged, the mains unit is unusable and must be disposed of. It must not be repaired.
• To disconnect the device from the mains completely, the mains plug has to be pulled out
of the socket.
• Never place containers containing liquids, e.g. glasses, buckets, vases or plants on the
device or in its vicinity. Liquids may get into the housing and impair electrical safety.
This also poses great danger of fire or potentially fatal electric shock! If this is the case,
first power down the respective mains socket on all connections (e.g. switch off circuit
breaker and FI switch) and then pull the mains unit from the socket. Do not operate the
product anymore afterwards, but take it to a specialist workshop.

chanical stress, high humidity, moisture, flammable gases, vapours and solvents.
• Only operate the device in moderate climates, never in tropical climates.
• Handle the product with care. Impact, blows or falls from even a low height will damage
the product.
