Incorrect handling of lithium batteries can result in injury!
In the event of a short circuit, overheating or mechanical damage, lithium
batteries can cause severe injuries. Handle lithium batteries in a correct and
professional manner. Store lithium batteries in a cool and dry place in their
original packaging. Keep lithium batteries away from sources of heat. Never
open lithium batteries. Only charge rechargeable lithium batteries with a
suitable charger. Remove the lithium batteries before disposing of the device.
Cover the poles of used lithium batteries with adhesive tape to prevent short
circuits. Electrolyte can escape from damaged lithium batteries. Put the
damaged lithium battery in air-tight packaging. Collect the electrolyte with
absorbent paper. Wear rubber gloves while doing so.
Damage to the device if operated in unsuitable ambient conditions!
The device can be damaged if it is operated in unsuitable ambient conditions.
Only operate the device indoors within the ambient conditions specified in the
“Technical specifications” chapter of this user . Avoid operating it in
environments with direct sunlight, heavy dirt and strong vibrations. Avoid
operating it in environments with strong temperature fluctuations. If
temperature fluctuations cannot be avoided (for example after transport in low
outside temperatures), do not switch on the device immediately. Never subject
the device to liquids or moisture. Never move the device to another location
while it is in operation. In environments with increased dirt levels (for
example due to dust, smoke, nicotine or mist): Have the device cleaned by
qualified specialists at regular intervals to prevent damage due to
overheating and other malfunctions.
Possible damage to lithium-ion batteries through incorrect storage!
Deep discharge can permanently damage lithium-ion batteries or cause them to
lose some of their capacity. Charge the lithium-ion batteries before longer
breaks in use and before storage. Ensure that the device is switched off for
storage. Store the device at room temperature or cooler in an environment as
dry as possible. Recharge the lithium-ion batteries about every three months
if they are stored for a longer period of time to avoid permanent damage due
to too deep self-discharge. Fully charge the lithium-ion batteries at
roomtemperature immediately before use.
