2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ADVICE WITH REGARD TO BATTERIES
• Remove the batteries if they are empty or if you are no longer using the product. In
this way, you will avoid damages that can be caused by leaking.
• The batteries may not be charged or activated with other means, dismantled, thrown
into re or short-circuited. There is a DANGER OF EXPLOSION!
• Preferably use alkaline batteries, since they last longer than regular zinc-carbon
batteries.
• A battery replacement is necessary as soon as the display starts to fade or fades
completely. Always replace all old batteries with new ones and make sure that the
batteries are inserted with the correct polarity.
INFORMATION ON ASSEMBLY
• Assembly of the product must be carried out carefully by an adult person. Ask for the
assistance of another, technically-skilled person in case of doubt.
• Before beginning assembly of the product, read all assembly steps carefully and
review the diagram.
• Remove all packaging materials and place all individual components on a free surface.
This will give you a good overview and simplify assembly. Shield the assembly surface
from lth and scratching by laying down suitable padding.
• Check the components against the components list to make sure all are present. Do
not dispose of all packaging materials until assembly is completed.
• Please note that there is always a risk of injury when using tools to carry out manual
tasks. Therefore, please exercise caution when assembling this product.
• Make sure your work environment is hazard-free. For example, do not leave any tools
lying around.
• After assembling the product according to the instructions, make sure that all screws,
bolts and nuts are installed correctly and tightened.
• If necessary, lay out protective padding (not included) beneath the product to protect
your oor as there is no guarantee that, for instance, the rubber feet will not leave
marks behind.
