Safety Instructions

a) General Information

• The device is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.
• Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. This may become dangerous playing material for children.
• Protect the appliance from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong jolts, high humidity, moisture, flammable gases, steam and solvents.
• Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
• If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and protect it from any accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed if the product:
  • is visibly damaged,
  • is no longer working properly,
  • has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
  • has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.
• Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height can damage the product.
• Never leave the product and the connected device unattended during use.
• Always turn off the connected device before connecting and disconnecting the product from the mains.
• Unplug the connected USB device from the product when you are not using it.
• The product generates heat during use. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation. Do not cover the product during use.
• Never short-circuit a USB port.
• The mains socket that the device is plugged into must be easily accessible.
• Only insert the power adapter into a standard mains socket that is connected to the public grid.
• Before plugging in the power adapter, check whether the voltage stated on the power adapter complies with the voltage of your electricity supplier.
• Never connect or disconnect the power adapter if your hands are wet.
• Make sure that the cable is not squeezed, bent, damaged by sharp edges or subjected to mechanical stress.
• Always lay the cable so that nobody can trip over or become entangled in it. This poses a risk of injury.
• For safety reasons, disconnect the power adapter from the mains socket during storms.
• Do not touch the power adapter if there are any signs of damage, as this may cause a fatal electric shock! Switch off the mains voltage to the socket to which the power adapter is connected (switch off at the corresponding circuit breaker or remove the safety fuse, and then switch off at the corresponding RCD protective switch). You can then unplug the power adapter from the mains socket. Dispose of the faulty power adapter in an environmentally friendly manner and discontinue use. Replace it with a power adapter of the same design.
• Never pour any liquids over electrical devices or place objects filled with liquid next to the product. If liquid or an object does enter the interior of the device, power down the respective socket (e.g. switch off the circuit breaker), and then remove the mains plug from the mains socket. Discontinue use and take the product to a specialist repair centre.
• Never use the product immediately after it has been brought from a cold room into a warm one. The condensation generated may destroy the product. There is also a risk of a fatal electric shock! Allow the product to reach room temperature before connecting it and putting it to use. This may take several hours.
• The mains connection must be near the device.
• Consult an expert when in doubt about the operation, safety or connection of the appliance.
• Maintenance, modifications and repairs must only be completed by a technician or an authorised repair centre.
