C) Handling And Use - VOLTCRAFT SEM4500 Operating Instructions Manual

c) Handling and use

• Always observe the safety information and operating instructions of
any other devices that are connected to the product.
• Never pull out a mains plug by pulling on its cable when disconnect-
ing it from the front socket of the product. Always pull the plug out of
the front socket by gripping the area on its sides.
• Never overload the product. Pay attention to the connection specifi-
cations in the "Technical data" section.
• Do not connect several energy cost meters to one another.
• Do not operate while covered! At higher connected loads, the prod-
uct becomes warm, which can lead to overheating and potentially
a fire if covered!
• De-energised only if unplugged!
• Only use the product in temperate climates. It is not suitable for use
in tropical climates.
• Never touch the product or the mains plug with wet or damp hands
when trying to connect a plug to the front socket. This may cause
a fatal electric shock.
• Never connect the product to the mains immediately after it has
been brought from a cold room into a warm one (e.g. after being
transported). The condensation that develops in such cases could
damage the device or cause an electric shock! Let the product
reach room temperature first. Wait until the condensation has evap-
orated; this may take several hours. Only after this may the product
be connected to the mains supply and put into use.
• Do not use the product if it is damaged. There is a risk of fatal elec-
tric shock!
