CAUTION!
Risk of injury due to mirror movements
The mirror mounted at the device head may perform very fast movements (pan,
tilt) and reflect very bright light. This is also the case immediately after switching
on the device, with automatic or remote operation, and while a connected DMX
controller is in off state. Persons who are in the immediate vicinity of the device
may be injured or frightened by this.
Make sure that there are no obstacles within the movement range of the mirror,
and that no persons are in the immediate vicinity of the device before switching it
on and during its operation. If any work is to be carried out within the movement
range or in the immediate vicinity of the mirror, the device must remain switched
off.
NOTICE!
Risk of fire
Do not cover the device nor any ventilation slots. Do not place the device near
any direct heat source. Keep the device away from naked flames.

NOTICE!
Operating conditions
This device has been designed for indoor use only. To prevent damage, never
expose the device to any liquid or moisture. Avoid direct sunlight, heavy dirt, and
strong vibrations.
NOTICE!
Power supply
Before connecting the device, ensure that the input voltage (AC outlet) matches
the voltage rating of the device and that the AC outlet is protected by a residual
current circuit breaker. Failure to do so could result in damage to the device and
possibly injure the user.
