SAFEtY:
For equipment that connects to the power mains:
22. CAUTION: If the power cord of the device is equipped with an earthing contact, then it must be
connected to an outlet with a protective ground. Never deactivate the protective ground of a power cord.
23. If the equipment has been exposed to strong fluctuations in temperature (for example, after
transport), do not switch it on immediately. Moisture and condensation could damage the equipment.
Do not switch on the equipment until it has reached room temperature.
24. Before connecting the equipment to the power outlet, first verify that the mains voltage and frequency
match the values specified on the equipment. If the equipment has a voltage selection switch, connect
the equipment to the power outlet only if the equipment values and the mains power values match. If the
included power cord or power adapter does not fit in your wall outlet, contact your electrician.
25. Do not step on the power cord. Make certain that the power cable does not become kinked,
especially at the mains outlet and/or power adapter and the equipment connector.
26. When connecting the equipment, make certain that the power cord or power adapter is always
freely accessible. Always disconnect the equipment from the power supply if the equipment is not in
use or if you want to clean the equipment. Always unplug the power cord and power adapter from the
power outlet at the plug or adapter and not by pulling on the cord. Never touch the power cord and
power adapter with wet hands.
27. Whenever possible, avoid switching the equipment on and off in quick succession because other-
wise this can shorten the useful life of the equipment.
28. IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Replace fuses only with fuses of the same type and rating. If a fuse
blows repeatedly, please contact an authorised service centre.
29. To disconnect the equipment from the power mains completely, unplug the power cord or power
adapter from the power outlet.
30. If your device is equipped with a Volex power connector, the mating Volex equipment connector
must be unlocked before it can be removed. However, this also means that the equipment can slide
and fall down if the power cable is pulled, which can lead to personal injuries and/or other damage.
For this reason, always be careful when laying cables.
31. Unplug the power cord and power adapter from the power outlet if there is a risk of a lightning
strike or before extended periods of disuse.
