GENERAL SAFETY AND WARNING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
Risk of electric shock!
Faulty electrical installation or excessive mains voltage can lead to electric shock.
• If you use a USB charger, only connect it if the mains voltage of the socket match-
es the specification on the type plate.
• To charge the installed Li-ion battery, use only power supplies that comply with
the SELV standard according to IEC 61558-2-6 or IEC 61347-2-13 or ES1 / IEC
62368-1 according to IEC 62368-3.
• Do not operate the product if it has visible damage.
• Always check the product for damage before use. Damaged electrical equipment
as well as kinked power cords or bare wires increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not open the housing but entrust the repair to specialists. Contact a specialist
workshop for this purpose. Liability and warranty claims are excluded in the event
of repairs carried out independently, improper connection or incorrect operation.
• Do not disassemble the product into its individual parts. Improper handling can
lead to electric shock and malfunction.
• Never immerse the product in water.
• Never touch the product with wet hands.
• Never pull the USB plug out of the charging socket by the USB charging cable, but
always hold the USB plug.
• Keep the product away from open flames and hot surfaces.
• Never operate the product in wet areas or in the rain.
• Do not expose the product to rain or extreme weather conditions e.g., sub-zero
temperatures, hail, extreme heat.
• Never place the product in such a way that it can fall into water.
• Charge the product indoors.
• Never reach for an electrical device if it has fallen into water.
• Make sure that no liquid gets into the product and, if necessary, dry the product

• Ensure that children do not insert any objects into the product.
• When you are not using the product, cleaning it or if a malfunction occurs, always
switch off the product and disconnect the power plug.
• If there are large fluctuations in temperature or humidity, condensation may cause
moisture to form inside the product, which may cause an electrical short circuit.
After transporting the product, wait until it has reached ambient temperature
before putting it into operation.
WARNING!
Hazards for children and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
abilities (for example, partially disabled persons, elderly persons with re-
duced physical and mental abilities) or lack of experience and knowledge
(for example, older children).
• This product can be used by children aged from eight years and above and per-
sons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities or lack of experience
and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use
of the product in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children must
not play with the product. Cleaning and user maintenance must not be carried out
by children without supervision.

• Charge the battery of the device regularly, even if you do not use it for a longer
period of time (about every 3 months). Otherwise, the battery may become deep-
ly discharged and permanently unusable.
