8.4 Operation
Never overload the product. Exceeding its maximum weight capacity can
damage the product.
Consult an expert when in doubt about the operation, safety or connection of
the device.
If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation
and protect it from any accidental use. DO NOT attempt to repair the product
yourself. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed if the product:
– is visibly damaged,
– is no longer working properly,
– has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions, or
– has been exposed to considerable strain during transport.
8.5 (Rechargeable) batteries
Pay attention to correct polarity when inserting the batteries.
If you do not plan to use the product for an extended period, remove the batteries
to prevent damage from leaking. Leaking or damaged batteries may cause acid
burns if they come into contact with your skin. Always use suitable protective
gloves when handling damaged batteries.
Batteries must be kept out of reach of children. Do not leave batteries lying
around, as there is risk that children or pets may swallow them.
All batteries should be replaced at the same time. Mixing old and new batteries
in the device can lead to battery leakage and device damage.
Batteries must not be dismantled, short-circuited or thrown into open flames.
Never attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. This may cause an
explosion!
