from the wall outlet. Then bring the product to a specialised workshop.
• Use only a proper mains socket (230V~/50Hz) connected to the public power supply.
• The mains outlet must be located near to the device and be easily accessible.
• Do not touch the mains cable if it is damaged. First, power down the respective mains
socket (e.g. via the respective circuit breaker) and then carefully pull the mains plug
from the mains socket. Never use the product if the mains cable is damaged.

- High humidity (> 80 % relative, condensation)
- Humidity, dust, flammable gases, solvent vapours, benzine
- High ambient temperatures (> approx. +50 ºC)
- Electromagnetic fields (motors, transformers, audio systems for model building etc.)
or electrostatic fields
