Safety instructions
To protect you from electrical shocks, injury or burns
the following basic safety principles must be observed
when using electrical devices. Please read and follow these in-
structions before using the device.
Installation
Ensure that the devices are positioned safely and cannot fall
down or over. Always position the cables to ensure they do
not pose a tripping hazard. Do not expose electrical devices to
rain. Do not operate electrical devices in damp or wet environ-
ments. Do not operate electrical devices close to flammable
liquids or gases.
Protection against an electrical shock
Only operate devices whose casings and cables are undam-
aged. Ensure the cables are installed safely. Do not pull on the
cables.
Only operate the device if it has been secured with a
30 mA fault-current circuit breaker. The valid local in-
stallation regulations must be observed.
Use
During use, please observe the regulations of EN 60335-1: 2010,
according to which this device has not been designed for use
by people (including children) who have restricted physical,
sensory or metal abilities or a lack of experience and/or knowl-
edge, unless they are supervised by a person responsible for
their safety or have received instructions from that person as
to how the device is to be used.
Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with
the device.
Do not use electrical devices for purposes other than those
stated by the manufacturer. The ventilation slits in the housing

Mains supply mode on ferries
The main supply voltage on ferries can be prone to heavy fluc-
tuations. Therefore, do not connect this device with this volt-
age without adequate protection.
Generator mode
Please observe the handling instructions in the manufacturer's
operating instructions. The generator must satisfy the 230 V
mains power connection values. The generator must comply
with the 230 V mains connection values. Only operate the
device on a generator that runs steady. The voltage peaks that
occur during the start-up and shut-down phase (e.g. due to a
lack of fuel) can damage the device.
