Always use the equipment as specified. Failure to do so will jeopardise the protection
provided by the equipment.
Removal of equipment panels or covers may expose hazardous live parts.
Do not touch until the electrical power is removed. Take care when there is
unlocked access to the rear of the equipment.
Isolate the equipment before working on the terminal strips.
Use a suitable protective barrier for areas with restricted space, where there
is a risk of electric shock due to exposed terminals.
Disconnect power before disassembling. Disassembly of the equipment may expose sensitive
electronic circuitry. Take suitable precautions against electrostatic voltage discharge (ESD) to
avoid damage to the equipment.
NEVER look into optical fibres or optical output connections. Always use optical power meters
to determine operation or signal level.
Testing may leave capacitors charged to dangerous voltage levels. Discharge capacitors by
reducing test voltages to zero before disconnecting test leads.
It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the equipment is installed, operated and used
for its intended function in the manner specified by the manufacturer.
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection
provided by the equipment may be impaired.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, pre-insulated tubular pin terminals should be used on
the ends of the power connections. The pin terminals should be completely inserted into the
connector supplied with the unit so that no metallic parts are exposed.
Operate the equipment within the specified electrical and environmental limits.
Before cleaning the equipment, ensure that no connections are energized. Use a lint free cloth
dampened with clean water.
Integration of the equipment into systems shall not interfere with its normal functioning.
The functioning of the device has been certified under the circumstances described by the
standards mentioned on item 2.17 (Type Tests). Usage of the equipment in different
conditions from the specified in this manual might affect negatively its normal integrity.
