4 Packaging, transport and storage
1910014218/00 EN
4.1 Purpose
The packaging is designed to protect the packaged product during transport,
loading, unloading and during periods of storage in such a way that no detri-
mental changes occur. The packaging must protect the goods against per-
mitted transport stresses such as vibration and knocks.
The packaging also prevents the packaged goods from moving impermissi-
bly within the packaging.
4.2 Suitability, structure and production
The goods are packaged in a sturdy cardboard box. This ensures that the
shipment is held securely in the intended transport position.
Inlays inside the box stabilize the goods, preventing impermissible changes
of position, and protect them from vibration.
4.3 Markings
The packaging bears a signature with instructions for safe transport and cor-
rect storage. The following symbols apply to the shipment of non-hazardous
goods. Adherence to these symbols is mandatory.

4.4 Transportation, receipt and handling of shipments
In addition to vibrations, jolts must also be expected during transportation. In
order to prevent possible damage, avoid dropping, tipping, knocking over
and colliding with the product.
If the packaging tips over or falls, damage is to be expected regardless of
the weight.
