Warning notice system
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent
damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are
graded according to the degree of danger.
DANGER
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
WARNING
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
NOTICE
indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will
be used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to
property damage.
Qualified Personnel
The product/system described in this documentation may be operated only by personnel qualified for the specific
task in accordance with the relevant documentation, in particular its warning notices and safety instructions.
Qualified personnel are those who, based on their training and experience, are capable of identifying risks and
avoiding potential hazards when working with these products/systems.
Proper use of Siemens products

Special information
Note
Important note for maintaining the operational safety of your plant
Plants with safety
-related features are subject to special operational safety requirements on
the part of the operator. The supplier is also obliged to comply with special product
monitori
ng measures. For this reason, we inform you in personal notifications about product
developments and features that are (or could be) relevant to the operation of plants from a
safety perspective.
By subscribing to the corresponding notifications, you will
ensure that you are always up-to-
date and able to make changes to your system when necessary.

Safety information
2
2.1 General safety information
WARNING
Electric shock and danger to life from other energy sources
Touching live parts can result in death or serious injury.
•Only work on electrical devices when you are qualified for this job.
•Always observe the country-specific safety rules.
Follow the steps below to ensure safety:
1. Prepare for shutdown. Notify all those who will be affected by the procedure.
2. Disconnect the drive system and ensure it cannot be switched back on.
3. Wait until the discharge time specified on the warning labels has elapsed.
4. Check there is no voltage between any power connections or between power connections
and the protective conductor connection.
5. Check whether the existing auxiliary supply circuits are de-energized.
6. Ensure that the motors cannot move.
7. Identify all other hazardous energy sources, such as compressed air, hydraulics and water.
Put all energy sources in a safe state.
8. Check that the correct drive system is completely locked.
After you have completed the work, restore the operational readiness in the inverse
sequence.
WARNING
Electric shock with damaged devices
Improper handling of devices can result in damage.
For damaged devices, hazardous voltages can be present at the enclosure or at exposed
components; if touched, this can result in death or severe injury.
•Observe the limit values specified in the technical specifications during transport,
storage, and operation.
•Do not use damaged devices.

Safety information
2.1 General safety information
SIMATIC Drive Controller
18 System Manual, 11/2023, A5E46600094-AD
WARNING
Unexpected movement of machines due to inactive safety functions
Safety functions that are inactive or that have not been adjusted accordingly can cause
operational faults on machines that could lead to serious injury or death.
•Observe the information in the appropriate product documentation before
commissioning.
•Carry out a safety inspection for functions relevant to safety on the entire system,
including all safety-related components.
•Ensure that the safety functions used in your drives and automation tasks are adjusted
and activated through appropriate parameterizing.
•Perform a function test.
•Only put your plant into live operation once you have guaranteed that the functions
relevant to safety are running correctly.
WARNING
Unexpected movement of machines caused by radio devices or cell phones
Using wireless devices or cell phones in the immediate vicinity of the components can cause
the devices to malfunction. Malfunctions may impair the functional safety of machines and
can therefore endanger people or lead to material damage.
•If you come closer than approx. 2 m to such components, switch off any radio devices or
cell phones.
•Use the "SIEMENS Industry Online Support App" only on equipment that has been
switched off.
WARNING
Interference from pacemakers and implants from electromagnetic fields (EMF)
Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are generated by the operation of electrical power equipment
such as transformers, converters or motors.
People with pacemakers or implants are at a special risk in the immediate vicinity of these
devices/systems.
•Ensure that the persons involved are the necessary distance away (minimum 2 m).
