WARNING
Risk of fire
The outer housing is made of Magnesium. If it comes into contact with open flame, there is
a risk of fire / spreading fire.
CAUTION
Danger due to overheating of the device
The air inlets are located on the underside of the device, see section "Bottom view" in
section "Device view and interfaces (Page 13)".
If these air inlets are covered to a great extent, cooling is impaired, as well as if there is not
enough clearance for the air outlet, see section "Rear view". The device can overheat and be
damaged with consequences for people, machines and the plant.
Ensure that these ventilation openings are not covered.
Do not place the device on very soft surfaces, e.g. cushions or pillows.
Maintain a minimum distance of 15 cm to obstacles e.g. walls behind the device.
