Plug the AC cord directly into the AC outlet. Do not use which are important for safety. These parts are marked by an isolation transformer for this check.
2 Warning 2.1. Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) to Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are called Elec- trostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. The following techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD).
2.3. How to Replace the Lithium Battery 2.3.1. Replacement Procedure • The TOP UNIT includes Lithium battery. NOTE: This Lithium battery is a critical component. It must never be subjected to excessive heat or discharge. It must therefore only be fitted in requirement designed specifically for its use.
