2 Safety instructions
Only use this unit if it is technically in proper working order, to the intended purpose and
while keeping safety and potential dangers in mind. Have malfunctions or damages elimi-
nated immediately!
Appoint a professional
Installation, mounting, connection, start-up and conguration of the unit may only be carried
out by trained and authorized professionals (installers).
Unless otherwise expressly specied, this also applies to the maintenance, testing and repair.
In doing so the regulations of the DIN VDE 0701 series of standards (repair, modication
and inspection of electrical appliances) must be followed in addition.
Read and pay attention to the documents
Carefully and completely read the documents included in delivery. Always pay attention to
the provided instructions, notes and warnings.
Regulations surveillance systems
The use of video and audio surveillance systems is strictly regulated in most countries.
Therefore, inform yourself on laws and regulations that govern individual applications be-
fore using the unit. Ensure compliance with these laws and regulations and also observe
regulations regarding data, working and environmental protection.
Donotmakemodications
Do not make any modications to the unit (neither to the software nor the hardware) without
consulting Dallmeier electronic. Improper modications can cause malfunctions or damages.
Dallmeier electronic accepts no liability for damages resulting from unauthorized or improper
modications to the unit.
Protection against condensation water
If the unit is brought from a cold to a warm environment, condensation water can form inside
the unit. Short-circuits may then lead to damage to the system. Wait up to 8 hours for the
unit to reach room temperature before starting it up.
Observe the rated voltage
The unit can be damaged or destroyed by the application of an incorrect voltage.
The mains voltage must always match the rated voltage of the unit. The rated voltage is
specied on the rating plate of the unit.
Observe ratings
Unsuitable ambient conditions and improper installation (mainly too high ambient tempera-
ture and insufcient ventilation) may reduce the unit’s life cycle. Ensure compliance with the
stated operating conditions (see technical data), requirements at the installation site and, if
applicable, maintenance regulations.
Expansion components/peripheral devices
Use only expansion components conforming with the technical data of the unit. Inappropriate
peripheral devices may result in the violation of local laws and regulations and damages to
the unit. In case of doubt, contact the sales partner responsible for your area.

WSD-2 HD
8Dallmeier electronic
Do not move while in operation
Strong vibrations can cause damage to the unit, in particular to the hard disk(s). Therefore,
do not bump the unit or move it in a jerky motion while in operation. Instruct the cleaning
personnel accordingly if necessary!
Do not open the unit
Do not open the housing of the unit. There are no components inside the unit that require
maintenance by the user. The inspection, maintenance and repair with an open housing
must only be carried out by trained and authorized professionals (installer).
Penetration of foreign bodies and liquids
No objects or liquids may be allowed to get into the device. In this case, immediately dis-
connect the unit from the power supply (pull out the power plug). Please contact the sales
partner responsible for your area.
Measures to be taken in the event of damage and burnt smell
If you notice burnt smell or formation of smoke from a unit, immediately disconnect it from
the power supply (pull out the power plug). Please contact the sales partner responsible
for your area.
