WARNING
Life-threatening voltages are present with an open control cabinet
System expansions
NOTICE
Damage through system expansions
WARNING
Risk of fire through expansion cards
nclosure that is compliant with sections 4.6 and 4.7.3
When you install the device in a control cabinet, some areas or components in the open
control cabinet may be carrying life-threatening voltages.
If you touch these areas or components, you may be killed by electric shock.
Switch off the power supply to the cabinet before opening it.
Device and system expansions may be faulty and can affect the entire machine or plant.
The installation of expansions can damage the device, machine or plant. Device and
system expansions may violate safety rules and regulations regarding radio interference
suppression. If you install or exchange system expansions and damage your device, the
warranty becomes void.
Note the following for system expansions:
● Only install system expansion devices designed for this device. Contact your technical
● Observe the information on electromagnetic compatibility (Page 89).
Expansion cards generate additional heat. The device may overheat and cause a fire.

devices may safely be installed.
Please note the following:
• Observe the safety and installation instructions for the expansion cards.
• If in doubt, install the device in an e

Safety instructions
NOTICE
"Open Type" UL508
Battery and rechargeable battery
WARNING
Risk of explosion and release of harmful substances
Strong high-frequency radiation
NOTICE
Observe immunity to RF radiation
2.1 General safety instructions
Note that the device is classified as "Open Type" for use in the area of Industrial Control
Equipment (UL508). A UL508 conform enclosure is therefore a mandatory requirement for
approval or operation according to UL508.
Improper handling of lithium batteries can result in an explosion of the batteries.
Explosion of the batteries and the released pollutants can cause severe physical injury.
Worn 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 operating instructions.
• Replace the lithium battery only with an identical battery or types recommended by the
manufacturer (order no.: A5E34345932).
• 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.
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.

If you work with components that can be destroyed by electrostatic discharge, observe the
ESD Guideline (Page 90).
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions only form one element of such a concept.
Customer is responsible to prevent unauthorized access to its plants, systems, machines
and networks. Systems, machines and components should only be connected to the
enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent necessary and with appropriate security
measures (e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) in place.
Additionally, Siemens’ guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into
account. For more information about industrial security, please visit
(http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly recommends to apply product updates as soon as available and to
always use the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no longer supported,
and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber threats.
To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS
Feed under (https://support.industry.siemens.com).

Disclaimer for third-party software updates
Notes on protecting administrator accounts
2.1 General safety instructions
This product includes third-party software. Siemens AG only provides a warranty for
updates/patches of the third-party software, if these have been distributed as part of a
Siemens software update service contract or officially released by Siemens AG. Otherwise,
updates/patches are undertaken at your own risk. You can find more information about our
Software Update Service offer on the Internet at Software Update Service
(http://www.automation.siemens.com/mcms/automation-software/en/software-update-
service).
A user with administrator privileges has extensive access and manipulation options in the
system.
Therefore, ensure there are adequate safeguards for protecting the administrator accounts
to prevent unauthorized changes. To do this, use secure passwords and a standard user
account for normal operation. Other measures, such as the use of security policies, should
be applied as needed.

Checking the delivery package
Procedure
Note
Damage to the device during transport and storage
If a device is transported or stored without packaging, shocks, vibrations, pressure and
moisture may impact the unprotected unit. A damaged packaging indicates that ambient
conditions have already had a massive impact on the device.
The device may be damaged.
Do not dispose of the original packaging. Pack the device during transportation and
storage.
1. When accepting a delivery, please check the packaging for visible transport damage.
2. If any transport damage is present at the time of delivery, lodge a complaint at the
shipping company in charge. Have the shipper confirm the transport damage
immediately.
3. Unpack the device at its installation location.
4. Keep the original packaging in case you have to transport the unit again.
5. Check the contents of the packaging and any accessories you may have ordered for
