b) Operation
• The product is not a toy and does not belong in the hands of children.
• The product may be installed and used only in dry indoor spaces; it must not get
damp or wet.
• The product should not be exposed to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, in-
tense vibrations or heavy mechanical stress. Protect it against dust and dirt.
• Never use the product immediately after it has been taken from a cold room into
a warm one. The condensation that forms can ruin the product under certain cir-
cumstances.
Allow the product to reach room temperature before connecting it to the power
supply and putting it to use. This may potentially take several hours.
• Prevent the following adverse conditions at the location of installation and during
transport:
- D ust or flammable gases, fumes or solvents
- strong vibrations, impacts or blows
- s trong magnetic fields such as those found in the vicinity of machinery or loud-
speakers
• Safe operation can no longer be assumed if:
- the device is visibly damaged
- the device no longer works
- the device has been stored under adverse conditions for a long time
- It was exposed to heavy loads during transport
• Handle the product with care; it can be damaged by impacts, blows, or accidental
falls, even from a low height.
c) Internal rechargeable battery
• The rechargeable battery is permanently installed and cannot be replaced.
• N ever throw the product into a fire. There is danger of fire or explosion due to the
rechargeable batteries!
• Therefore, recharge the battery frequently (latest every 3 months), even if you
don't use the product. Otherwise, it may result in a deep discharge of the battery,
thus making it permanently unusable.
No initial discharge is required before charging due to the rechargeable battery
technology used.
• Put the device on a heat-resistant surface when charging. A slight warming during
the charging process is normal.
• Never use the product without supervision.
• If the product is damaged, the integrated battery might also be damaged. This can
cause fluids to leak out that can cause chemical burns on the skin. Therefore, use
suitable protective gloves.
• Liquids leaking from rechargeable batteries are very chemically aggressive. Ob-
jects or surfaces coming into contact with these liquids might be considerably
damaged.
