For your safety
WARNING
After removing covers, live parts may be exposed. You may receive
an electric shock if you touch these parts. Disconnect the mains plug
before removing any covers. Only electrical engineers may work on
the electrical equipment of the appliances.
WARNING
When loading the appliance with an unsuitable load, poisonous or
explosive vapours or gases may be produced. This could cause the
appliance to explode, and people could be severely injured or poi-
soned. The appliance may not be loaded with materials / test objects
that release toxic or explosive vapours when heated up (see also
chapter Intended use on page 8).
WARNING
Leaving the door open during operation can cause the appliance to
overheat or pose a fi re hazard. Do not leave the door open during
operation.
WARNING
Gas bottles may burst or explode at high temperatures. Keep the
gas bottles away from open fl ames. Store gas bottles below 50 °C
and ensure that the location is always well ventilated. Prevent water
from penetrating as well as backfl ow into the gas bottles. It is es-
sential that you read the safety notes and instructions of the gas
supplier.
WARNING
Condensation might cause a short circuit. After transport or storage
at high humidity conditions, the appliance shall be stored unpacked
at normal conditions for at least 24 hours. During this period of time
the appliance shall not be connected to the power supply.
CAUTION
Danger of suffocation. CO
2
and N
2
can have a suffocating effect
in high concentrations. In normal mode, the appliance emits small
amounts of CO
2
and N
2
to its surroundings. You should therefore
ensure that the room in which it is installed is properly ventilated.
A ventilation rate of 250 m³ / h is required. Always close the stop
valve or pressure reducer on the gas bottles if the appliance is not in
operation.
CAUTION
High concentrations of CO
2
can cause cold burns or frostbite. Avoid
contact with CO
2
gas to the eyes and skin.
