WARNING!
Electric shock
► Set up devices which can be operated with a power supply unit so
that the power supply socket is within easy reach and the power
supply can be disconnected quickly.
► Ensure that your local electricity supply matches the details on the
power supply unit.
► Never touch the power supply unit with wet hands.
► Do not use extension cables and multiple outlets.
► Ensure that cables are not crushed or damaged by sharp edges.
► Ensure that cables do not come into contact with hot objects.
► Do not operate the device at an altitude of more than 3000 m
above sea level.
► Only devices that are approved as medical devices and that have
no separate power supply may be connected to the USB interface.
WARNING!
Injury from falling
► Ensure that the device is steady and level.
► Route connector cables (if present) so that neither users nor the
patient can trip over them.
► Assist people with limited mobility, e.g. when they are getting up
from a wheelchair.
► Ensure that the patient does not step straight onto or off the edges
of the patient standing area.
► Ensure that the patient steps onto and off the patient standing area
slowly and safely.
WARNING!
Risk of slipping
► Ensure that the patient standing area is dry before the patient steps
onto it.
► Ensure that the patient has dry feet before stepping onto the pa-
tient standing area.
► Ensure that the patient steps onto and off the patient standing area
slowly and safely.
CAUTION!
Injury, damage to device
The patient standing area consists of a glass plate. Damage (e.g.
scratches, cracks or chips) represent a risk of injury. Damage can also
lead to the glass plate breaking.
► Do not put any sharp-edged objects on the glass plate.
► Before using each time, check the glass plate for scratches, cracks
and chips. If you find damage of this kind, have the glass plate re-
placed with a new one.
► Do not use the device if the glass plate is damaged.
