Safety

This device has left our company in absolutely perfect condition. 
In order to maintain this condition and to ensure a safe operation, 
it is absolutely necessary for the user to follow the safety 
instructions and warning notes written in this user manual.

NOTE: Damages caused by the disregard of this user manual 
are not subject to warranty. The dealer will not accept 
liability for any resulting defects or problems.

Never look directly into the light source of an attached 
projector!

Keep away children!

There are no user serviceable parts (fuse) inside this unit.

If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation, 
do not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation water 
might damage your device. Leave the device switched off until it 
has reached room temperature.

Please make sure that there are no obvious transport damages. 
Should you notice any damages on the A/C connection cable or 
on the control unit, do not take the device into operation and 
immediately consult your dealer.

This device falls under protection-class I. The power plug must 
only be plugged into a protection class I outlet. The voltage and 
frequency must exactly be the same as stated on the device. 
Wrong voltages or power outlets can lead to the destruction of 
the device and to mortal electrical shock.

Always plug in the power plug last. The power plug must always 
be inserted without force. Make sure that the plug is tightly 
connected with the outlet.

Never let the power-cord come into contact with other cables! 
Handle the power-cord and all connections with the mains with 
particular caution! Never touch them with wet hands, as this 
could lead to mortal electrical shock.

Never modify, bend, strain mechanically, put pressure on, pull or 
heat up the power cord. Never operate next to sources of heat 
or cold. Disregard can lead to power cord damages, fire or mortal 
electrical shock.

The cable insert or the female part in the device must never be 
strained. There must always be sufficient cable to the device. 
Otherwise, the cable may be damaged which may lead to mortal 
damage.

Make sure that the power-cord is never crimped or damaged by 
sharp edges. Check the device and the power-cord from time to 
time.

If extension cords are used, make sure that the core diameter is 
sufficient for the required power consumption of the device. All 
warnings concerning the power cords are also valid for possible 
extension cords.

Always disconnect from the mains, when the device is not in use 
or before cleaning it. Only handle the power-cord by the plug. 
Never pull out the plug by tugging the power-cord. Otherwise, 
the cable or plug can be damaged leading to mortal electrical 
shock. If the power plug or the power switch is not accessible, 
the device must be disconnected via the mains.

If the power plug or the device is dusty, the device must be 
taken out of operation, disconnected and then be cleaned with 
a dry cloth. Dust can reduce the insulation which may lead to 
mortal electrical shock. More severe dirt in and at the device 
should only be removed by a specialist.

There must never enter any liquid into power outlets, extension 
cords or any holes in the housing of the device. If you suppose 
that also a minimal amount of liquid may have entered the 
device, it must immediately be disconnected. This is also valid, 
if the device was exposed to high humidity. Also if the device is 
still running, the device must be checked by a specialist if the 
liquid has reduced any insulation. Reduced insulation can cause 
mortal electrical shock.

There must never be any objects entering into the device. 
This is especially valid for metal parts. If any metal parts like 
staples or coarse metal chips enter into the device, the device 
must be taken out of operation and disconnected immediately. 
Malfunction or short-circuits caused by metal parts may cause 
mortal injuries.
