Safety Precautions
This product is intended for professional incorporation into a complete system. If you install
the product incorrectly, it may present a safety hazard. The product and system may use high
voltages and currents, carries a high level of stored electrical energy, or is used to control
mechanical equipment which can cause injury.
You should give close attention to the electrical installation and system design to avoid
hazards either in normal operation or in the event of equipment malfunction. System design,
installation, commissioning and maintenance must be carried out by personnel who have the
necessary training and experience. Read and follow this safety information and the instruction
manual carefully.

Enclosure

This product is intended to be mounted in an enclosure which prevents access except by
trained and authorized personnel, and which prevents the ingress of contamination. This
product is designed for use in an environment classified as pollution degree 2 in accordance
with IEC664-1. This means that only dry, non-conducting contamination is acceptable.

Setup, Commissioning and Maintenance

It is essential that you give careful consideration to changes to drive settings. Depending on
the application, a change could have an impact on safety. You must take appropriate
precautions against inadvertent changes or tampering. Restoring default parameters in certain
applications may cause unpredictable or hazardous operation.
