12. If a product is to be permanently installed, the connection between the
protective conductor terminal on site and the product's protective conductor
must be made first before any other connection is made. The product may be
installed and connected only by a licensed electrician.
13. For permanently installed equipment without built-in fuses, circuit breakers or
similar protective devices, the supply circuit must be fuse-protected in such a
way that anyone who has access to the product, as well as the product itself,
is adequately protected from injury or damage.
14. Use suitable overvoltage protection to ensure that no overvoltage (such as
that caused by a bolt of lightning) can reach the product. Otherwise, the
person operating the product will be exposed to the danger of an electric
shock.
15. Any object that is not designed to be placed in the openings of the housing
must not be used for this purpose. Doing so can cause short circuits inside the
product and/or electric shocks, fire or injuries.
16. Unless specified otherwise, products are not liquid-proof (see also section
"Operating states and operating positions", item 1). Therefore, the equipment
must be protected against penetration by liquids. If the necessary precautions
are not taken, the user may suffer electric shock or the product itself may be
damaged, which can also lead to personal injury.
17. Never use the product under conditions in which condensation has formed or
can form in or on the product, e.g. if the product has been moved from a cold
to a warm environment. Penetration by water increases the risk of electric
shock.
18. Prior to cleaning the product, disconnect it completely from the power supply
(e.g. AC supply network or battery). Use a soft, non-linting cloth to clean the
product. Never use chemical cleaning agents such as alcohol, acetone or
diluents for cellulose lacquers.
Operation
1. Operating the products requires special training and intense concentration.
Make sure that persons who use the products are physically, mentally and
emotionally fit enough to do so; otherwise, injuries or material damage may
occur. It is the responsibility of the employer/operator to select suitable
personnel for operating the products.
2. Before you move or transport the product, read and observe the section titled
