CAUTION
Risk of burns when replacing lamps
− When touching hot surfaces (e.g. lamp housing) there is a risk of burning the fingers.
Therefore, pull out the power plug before changing the lamps and allow the device to cool
down for approx. 15 minutes.
− Gas-discharge lamps have a high level of internal pressure when hot and must therefore
only be replaced when cooled, using protective gloves and mask.
CAUTION
Risk of ineffective safety measures
− If it is determined that protective measures are no longer effective, the device must be
taken out of service and secured against inadvertent operation, to avoid the risk of injury.
− Contact ZEISS Service to have the device repaired.
CAUTION
Risk of fire from heat accumulation
− Always check the device is switched off before covering it with a dust cover.
− Clogging or covering of ventilation slats is also prohibited.
− Failure to comply with these two instructions can lead to an accumulation of heat, which
can damage the device and, in the worst-case scenario, cause a fire.
CAUTION
Risk of damage to the device due to incorrect or improvised fuses
− When changing the device fuses, only fuses specified in the technical data may be used.
− The use of other fuses and short-circuiting the fuse box are prohibited, to avoid the risk of
overheating, smoke formation or fire in the device.
NOTICE
Risk of malfunction due to dirt, dust and moisture
− Dirt, dust and moisture may impair the device's functional performance.
