In the event of a thunderstorm, all data
transfer cables (modem/LAN/PC card
modem, CF-LAN card, CF-WLAN card)
should be removed at the wall from the
telephone or LAN socket. No data transfer
cables should be connected or disconnected
during a thunderstorm.
•
Make sure that no objects (e.g. jewellery
chains, paper clips, etc.) or liquids get inside
the device (danger of electric shock, short
circuit).
•
In emergencies (e.g. damaged casing,
elements or cables, penetration of liquids
or foreign matter), switch off the device
immediately, remove the power connector,
remove the battery (if present), and contact
your sales outlet or our hotline/help desk.
•
The device is not waterproof! Never immerse
the device in water and protect it from spray
water (rain, sea water).
•
Therefore, check each CD for damage,
cracks, breakage etc. before inserting it in
the drive. Please note that any additional
labels applied may change the mechanical
properties of a CD and cause imbalance.
Damaged and imbalanced CDs can break at
high drive speeds (data loss). Under certain
conditions sharp-edged pieces of broken CDs
can penetrate the cover of the drive (damage
to the unit) and be thrown out of the unit
(danger of injury, particularly on uncovered
body parts such as the face or neck).
•
Protect the contacts of all sockets and plugs
of the device against static electricity. Avoid
touching the contacts. Should touching
be unavoidable, take the following safety
measures: Touch an earthed object or
wear an earthing strap before touching the
contacts. This discharges static charges.
•
Keep other objects 100 mm each away from
the device and its mains adapter to ensure
adequate ventilation.
•
Do not install the device near heating
devices or other sources of heat (e.g. heater,
fireplace). Excessive heating up can cause
the device, batteries or mains adapter to
catch fire or explode.
•
If the device is installed in a cabinet or a
drawer, sufficient ventilation must be provided.
Otherwise damage from overheating may
result.
•
Never place the notebook/the Tablet PC on
a soft surface (e.g. carpeting, upholstered
furniture, bed). This can block the air vents
and cause overheating and damage. If, for
example, you place the notebook/Tablet PC
on your knees for a longer period, this can
become unpleasant or can even lead to
burns.
•
Never cover the fan intake or exhaust openings
of the device and the mains adapter.
•
Keep the device away from naked flames.
•
Do not use the device in a damp environment,
e.g. near a bathtub, a wash basin or a
swimming pool.
•
Do not use the accessories (e.g. mains
adapter, battery, cables and adapters)
included with the respective device or
component for other devices or components.
•
To avoid injuries, be sure to keep the following
devices and objects out of the reach of small
children: personal computers, workstations,
servers, small parts of the device, batteries,
cables and packaging materials (e.g. plastic
bags).
•
Except with headphones or headset: do not
hold the loudspeaker of your device directly
up to your ear.
•
Headphones and headset: To prevent
damage to your hearing, check the configured
volume before putting on the headphones or
headset.
•
To avoid damages on the fingerprint sensor,
don’t touch the fingerprint sensor with hard or
metallic objects (e.g. pens or rings).
