NOTICE
Damage to the device during transport and storage
If a device is transported or stored without packaging, it is unprotected from shocks,
vibrations, pressure and moisture. Damaged packaging indicates that environmental
conditions have already had a significant impact on the device.
The device might be damaged.
Do not dispose of the original packaging. Pack the device for transport and storage.
NOTICE
Damage to the device caused by condensation
If the device was exposed to low temperatures or extreme variations in temperature during
transport, this may cause moisture to build up on or in the device (condensation). Please
note the specified mechanical and climatic ambient conditions (Page 74).
Moisture can cause short-circuits in the electrical circuits and damage the device.
Proceed as follows to avoid damage:
• Store the device in dry conditions.
• Make sure it adapts to room temperature before commissioning.
• Do not expose the device to direct heat radiation from a heater.
• If condensation has developed, wait until the device is completely dry before you switch
