IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not place the device on heating radiators, ovens or other heat-producing devices, including amplifiers.
• In order to reduce the risk of fire and electric shock, do not expose the device to fire (fireplace, grill, candles,
cigarettes and so on) or water (water drops, water splashes, vases, tubs, ponds and so on).
Power Supply
• The mains voltage must match the information on the rating label of the device.
• The power plug is used as the disconnect device. Please be sure that the power plug is in operable
condition.
• Only removing the power plug can separate the device completely from the mains supply.
• The STANDBY button and the power switch do not separate the device from the mains. In order to separate
the device from the power supply, unplug the power cord.
• Only unplug from the power outlet by the plug itself. Do not pull on the cord.
• Unplug the power cord when not in use, during disruption in operation and before cleaning.
• Unplug the power cord during lightning storms and prolonged absence in order to protect the electronics
against overvoltage and damage.
• If the power cord or the casing of the device is damaged or if the device is dropped, the device may not be
used before it is examined by a professional electrician.
• A damaged power cord may only be replaced by the manufacturer or a workshop commissioned by the
manufacturer or by a similarly qualified person in order to avoid hazards.
• Protect the power cord and the housing from damage.
Condensation
• If the cold device is brought into a warm and perhaps slightly damp surrounding, condensation can build up
inside. Condensation can influence the proper function of the device. In extreme cases, condensation could
cause damage from a short circuit. Let the device stand in a warm and dry surrounding for 1-2 hours in order
to dry the possible condensation or let it leak out before putting into operation.
Battery
• Caution: There is danger of explosion from improper replacement of the batteries. Replace batteries only
with the same or equivalent type of battery.
• Always change the entire battery pack. Do not mix old and new batteries, or batteries with different charge
state.
• Make sure the batteries are correctly inserted. Observe the polarity (+) plus / (-) negative on the battery and
the housing. Improperly inserted batteries can lead to leakage or, in extreme cases, a fire or an explosion.
• Never expose batteries to excessive heat (e.g. bright sun, fire), and never throw them into fire. The batteries
could explode.
• The connections must not be short-circuited.
• Remove used batteries. Remove the batteries if you know that the device will not be used for a longer period
of time. Otherwise, the batteries could leak and cause damage.
• Keep batteries out of reach of small children. If batteries have been swallowed, seek immediate medical
attention.
