SSB 70 C3
WARNING! Always make sure that
• contact with water sprays or drops and corrosive liquids is avoided and the device is never operated near water; in particular the device may
never be immersed in liquids (also, do not place any objects containing liquids, such as vases or drinks, on or near the device).
• no naked flames (e.g. burning candles) are placed on or near the device;
• there is no penetration by foreign bodies.
• the device is not exposed to any extreme temperature fluctuations as this can cause moisture through condensation and short circuits. If the
device has been exposed to extreme temperature fluctuations, wait for it to reach the ambient temperature before switching it on (about 2
hours).
• the device is not covered. Heat can accumulate when the device is covered, therefore there is a risk of fire.
• the housing is not opened. This could cause an electric shock.
• the mains plug is not touched with wet hands. This could cause an electric shock.
• the socket outlet used must always remain easily accessible, as the mains plug is used as a disconnecting device.
• the mains plug is disconnected from the mains socket in the event of lightning. There is a risk of fire or damage to property.
Failure to heed the warnings above may cause injury.
CAUTION! Always make sure that
• the device is not exposed to direct heat sources (e.g. radiators);
• no direct sunlight or bright artificial light reaches the device;
• you keep at least 1 m of space to radio frequency and magnetic sources (e.g. speakers, mobile phones, etc.) to avoid any malfunction. In
case of malfunction, install the device at a different place.
• the device is not subjected to excessive shocks or vibrations;
• the USB port (4) may not be used to charge external devices.
Failure to heed the warnings above could result in damage to the device.
DANGER! Batteries
Insert the batteries with the correct polarity. Refer to the diagram inside the battery compartment. Do not attempt to recharge the batteries and never throw the
batteries into a fire. Do not mix battery types (old and new or carbon and alkaline, etc.). Remove the batteries when the device is not to be used for an extended
period. Improper use could cause explosions or leaks. Batteries are not toys! If a battery is swallowed, seek medical help immediately. Batteries must never be
opened or deformed, as this could result in chemicals leaking out which could cause injuries. If the battery fluid comes into contact with the skin or eyes,
rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical aid.
DANGER! Personal safety
Electrical devices are not suitable for children. Persons with physical, sensory or mental impairments may also only use electrical devices within the limits of their
abilities. Do not allow children or persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities to use electrical devices unsupervised unless they are instructed
accordingly and supervised by a competent person responsible for their safety. Children should always be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
product. Small parts can represent choking hazards. Keep the packaging out of the reach of these people. Packaging material is not a toy.
There is a risk of suffocation.
WARNING! Cables
Unplug all cables by holding the plugs and never pull on the cables themselves. Never place pieces of furniture or other heavy objects on the cables and take
care that they do not become damaged, especially at the plugs and sockets. Never install the cables around hot or sharp objects to avoid damaging them. Never
tie knots in cables and do not tie them to other cables. All cables should be positioned so that nobody can trip over them or be obstructed by them.
DANGER! RF interface
Turn the device off when on board an aircraft, in a hospital, in an operating theatre or in the vicinity of electronic medical equipment. The RF signals may interfere
with the functionality of sensitive devices. Keep the device at least 20 cm (8 inches) away from pacemakers, as the RF signals could interfere with the functionality
