Preface
the unit.
The appliance is not designed for use in rooms with a
high temperature or air humidity (e.g. bathrooms) or excessive
dust.
Please ensure that:
- no direct heat sources (e.g. heaters) act on the appliance
- the appliance is not exposed to direct sunlight or strong artificial light
- you avoid contact with splashing and dripping water and aggressive
liquids

the mains power lead provided
The device will store your data on a media with a magnetic surface. For
II
this reason, keep the device away from sources that generate magnetic
and electromagnetic fields.
Power Supply
The unit still uses electricity in standby operation. In order to disconnect
the unit completely from the power supply, the plug must be removed
from the power supply socket. The unit should therefore be set up so
that direct and unimpeded access to the power supply socket is
possible at all times, and the plug can be removed immediately in the
event of an emergency. In order to prevent the risk of fire, the plug
should always be removed from the power supply socket during longer
periods of non-use, e.g. during holidays. Please disconnect the unit
from the power supply before storms and/or severe weather with the
Preface
risk of lightning strikes
and disconnect the antenna plug. Use only
the power supply unit provided “KSAFK1900342T1M2” in order
to prevent the risk of overheating, housing deformation, fire,
electric shocks, explosions and other dangers. Never connect
the power supply unit to other devices.
Warning: The battery may explode if handled incorrectly! Do not
attempt to dismantle the battery, change the polarity, and under
no circumstances dispose of the battery in the fire! Keep the
battery away from children and dispose of it properly!
Incorrect replacement of the battery may create the risk of
explosion. Replace the battery only with an identical type or type
recommended by the manufacturer.
III
Keep environmental protection in mind! Used batteries must not
be disposed of as household waste! Used batteries must be
disposed of at an old battery collection point.
Caution! Risk of fire / explosion
This unit works with a high-quality Li-Ion rechargeable battery.
Under very unfavourable conditions, contact sparks may be
generated, which can ignite explosive or combustible vapours.
We therefore strongly recommend that the unit is not used in
dangerous areas such as filling stations, where the unit should
be switched off.
Cables
Always hold cables by the plug, and do not pull on the cable
itself. Never touch the power supply cable with wet hands, since
Preface
this may cause a short-circuit or electric shock. Never place the
unit itself, items of furniture or other heavy objects on cables,
and ensure that these do not become kinked, especially at the
plug and the connection sockets. Never tie a knot in a cable, and
do not tie it together with other cables. All cables should be laid
where they will not be trodden on or present an obstacle. A
damaged power supply cable can cause a fire or electric shock.
Check the power supply cable from time to time. Do not use any
adapter plugs or extension cables which do not comply with the
applicable safety standards, and do not make any modifications
to the power supply cables!
IV
Maintenance and Care
Maintenance work is required if the unit has been damaged, e.g.
if the plug, power supply cable or housing have been damaged,
liquids or foreign objects have got into the unit, if it has been
exposed to rain or damp, or if it does not work properly or has
been dropped. If you notice any smoke, unusual noises or
smells, switch the unit off immediately, and remove the plug
from the power supply socket. In such cases, the unit should not
be used until it has been checked by a specialist. Maintenance
work should be carried out only by qualified specialist personnel.
Never open the housing of the unit, the power supply adapter or
the accessories. With the housing open, there is a risk of
possibly fatal injury from electric shock. Clean the unit only with
a clean, dry cloth, and never use any aggressive fluids. Do not
