Risk of explosion and release of harmful substances
Improper handling of lithium batteries can result in an explosion of the batteries.
Explosion of lithium batteries and the released pollutants can cause serious physical injury.
Damaged batteries jeopardize the function of the device.
Note the following when handling lithium batteries:
• Replace used batteries in good time; see the section "Replacing the backup battery" in
the section "Device maintenance and repair".
• Replace the lithium battery only with an identical battery or types recommended by the
manufacturer (order no.: A5E00369854).
• Do not throw lithium batteries into fire, do not solder on the cell body, do not recharge,
do not open, do not short-circuit, do not reverse polarity, do not heat above 100°C and
protect from direct sunlight, moisture and condensation.
Strong high-frequency radiation
Observe immunity to RF radiation
The device has an increased immunity to RF radiation according to the specifications on
electromagnetic compatibility in the technical specifications.
Radiation exposure in excess of the specified immunity limits can impair device functions,
result in malfunctions and therefore injuries or damages.
Read the information on immunity to RF radiation in the technical specifications.
ESD directive
Electrostatic sensitive devices can be labeled with an appropriate symbol.
Electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD)
When you touch electrostatic sensitive components, you can destroy them
that are far below the human perception threshold.
If you work with components that can be destroyed by electrostatic discharge, observe the
ESD directive in the technical specifications.
