Attention – Damage to device!
Under no circumstances may the fan cover on the rear side of the device be closed.
This would interrupt the supply of cooling medium required in operation.
Never touch the piezo crystal at the front of the device with sharp-edged objects. This
component may be damaged by improper handling.
Protect the plasma generator from falls or other hard impacts which may damage the
electronics or piezo crystal.
