Use of untrained staff

NOTE
The product is a programmable device. The respective programmer is therefore respon‐
sible for his/her programming work and the resultant operation of the device. The
liability and warranty of SICK AG is limited to the device specification (hardware func‐
tionality and any programming interfaces) according to the agreed conditions. SICK AG
will therefore not be liable, among other things, for any damages resulting from the
programming of the product by the customer or third parties.
2.5 Modifications and conversions
NOTICE
Modifications and conversions to the device may result in unforeseeable dangers.
Interrupting or modifying the device or SICK software will invalidate any warranty claims
