Additional accessories for the SEO 5 are being designed. You can get information on these additional accessories over and above the supplied kit on
our Internet page.
15. Caution
Do not swallow any small parts or batteries/accumulators that are present. The products or parts thereof (including batteries / accumulators) must be
stored outside the reach of children.
For reasons of safety and approval (CE), the product must not be modified and/or changed. The product is to be used exclusively as battery or
accumulator powered lamp. If the SEO 5 is used for any other purpose, or used incorrectly, it can get damaged and hazard-free use is not guaranteed
any more (danger from fire, short-circuit, electric shock etc.). There is then no liability for harm to persons or damage to property, and the warranty of
the manufacturer is also rendered null and void.
The temperature range in which the SEO 5 can be operated is -20 C° to +50 C°. Ensure that the SEO 5 is not subjected to more extreme
temperatures, intense vibrations, explosive atmosphere, solvents and/or vapours.
Also continuously exposed to direct sunlight, high humidity and/or moisture have to be avoided.
Changes, repairs and maintenance over and above those described in the documents accompanying the product may only be carried out by
authorised technical personnel.
Once it is found that the product is filled with full batteries / accumulators in correct orientation (polarity!) and correctly closed, but nonetheless a
normal, safe operation is not possible or the product shows damage, it must be rendered inoperative and not used any further. In this case, for
warranty matters, contact your dealer.
16. Safety instructions
• This product is not a children's toy.
• Since it has small parts that can be swallowed, it is not suitable for persons below 5 years.
• The article may not be used for examinations of the eyes (e.g. for the so-called pupil test).
• When using it, the accumulation of heat, e.g. by covering, must be avoided.
• If the product does not work correctly, the first thing that must be checked is whether this is due to discharged battery respectively accumulators or
because these are not inserted correctly.
• If using in traffic, please follow the respective legal regulations.
The hazard that poses the main threat in this product through optical radiation is the Blue-Light-Hazard (400 nm to 780 nm). Thermal hazard threshold
values are clearly not reached.
The risk for the viewer depends on the use or on how the product is installed. However, there is no optical hazard as long as the aversion responses
limit the time of exposure and as long as the information contained in this instruction manual is observed.
The aversion reactions are triggered by the exposure and they are to mean all natural reactions that protect the eye from hazards through optical
radiation. This includes in particular conscious aversion reactions such as eye or head movement (e.g. turning away).
When using the product it is of particular importance to bear in mind that the aversion reactions of persons at whom the light is directed at may be
weakened or completely suspended as a result of medication, drugs or illness.
Because of the blinding effect of the product, improper use may lead to reversible, i.e. temporary impairment of sight (physiological blinding) or
afterimages, or it may trigger feeling unwell in the sense of feeling queasy and tired (physiological blinding). The intensity of the temporary feeling of
being unwell or the time until it subsides depend primarily on the difference in brightness between the blinding-light source and the surrounding area.
Photosensitive persons in particular ought to consult a medical consultant prior to using this product.
As a matter of principle the rule is that high-intensity light sources carry a high secondary hazard potential due to their blinding effect. Just like
looking into other bright light sources (e.g. headlights of a car), the temporary limited impairment of vision and afterimages may lead to irritation,
inconveniences, impairments and even accidents, depending on the situation.
The information applies to the use of a single product. If more light-emitting products of the same type or of a different type are used together, the
intensity of the optical radiation may increase.
Every longer viewing/eye-contact with the source of radiation of this product by the user or other persons, with and without other light-bundling
instruments, is to be avoided as a matter of principle! Instead, the eyes are to be closed deliberately in such cases and the head ought to be turned
away from the light beam.
In case of a commercial use or the product's use by public bodies, the user must be instructed as to all applicable laws and regulations that correspond
to the individual case of usage.
Important rules of conduct:
• Do not aim the light beam directly into the eyes of a person.
• The user or any other person should not look directly into the light beam.
• In the event of optical radiation hitting the eye, the eyes must deliberately shut and the head is to be turned away from the beam.
• The instruction manual and this information must be stored safely and must be passed on together with the product.
• It is prohibited to look straight into the light that is being emitted by this product.
