2.3.1 Danger to life
Particular dangers for children
Children playing with packaging films or plastic bags are at risk of suffocation. If children swallow small parts such as screws,
they are at risk of suffocation or poisoning.
✓ Do not allow children to play with the device or its packaging.
✓ Keep the device and its packaging out of reach of children.
2.3.2 Risk of injury
Explosion hazard
Parts of the device that carry electric currents can produce electrical sparks even at low voltages (e.g. when electric circuits are
switched on or off) and can thus act as sources of ignition. In areas with a risk of explosions, this can cause an explosion and
individuals could be injured.
✓ Do not use the device in potentially explosive areas.
2.3.3 Danger of material damage
Hard shocks
Hard shocks can damage mechanical and electronic components of the device. Under some circumstances, damaged devices do
not function correctly or do not function at all.
✓ Do not allow the device to fall onto the ground, onto hard surfaces or hard objects.
Electrostatic discharges
The electronic components are highly sensitive and can be damaged by electrostatic discharges or excessive voltage. In some
circumstances, damaged devices do not function correctly or do not function at all.
✓ Do not assemble the device in areas affected by electrostatic charges.
✓ Do not touch any electronic components.
Liquids
Water and other liquids can damage the electronic components of the device. Under some circumstances, damaged devices do
not function correctly or do not function at all.
✓ Protect the electronic components from water and other liquids.
Climatic influences
Climatic influences such as heat, cold and moisture can damage the device. Under some circumstances, damaged devices do not
function correctly or do not function at all.
✓ Do not use the device in a corrosive atmosphere (chlorine, ammonia or lime water).
