Electromagnetic Compatibility
When connecting additional or other components the "Electromagnetic
Compatibility Directive" (EMC) must be adhered to. Please also note that only
screened cable (maximum 10ft) should be used with this appliance.
For optimal performance, maintain a distance of at least 10 ft. from sources of
high-frequency and magnetic interference (televisions, loudspeaker systems,
mobile telephones and so on.
This will help avoid malfunctions and loss of data.
Electronic devices emit electromagnetic waves during operation.
These emissions are harmless, but can interfere with other devices operated in
close proximity.
While our devices are tested and optimized for electromagnetic compliance in our
laboratories, interference during operation may still occur in the device itself
and with other devices in its proximity.
Should such interference occur, try to eliminate it by adjusting the positions of and
the distances between the devices.
Before driving a car, please ensure that the electronic systems of the car are
working properly.
Data Security
Every time you update your data make backup copies on an external storage
medium. The supplier does not assume liability for data loss or damage to data
storage units, and no claims can be accepted for damages resulting from the
loss of data or for consequential damages.
Connection
Use the power adapter included with the package. Using other power adaptors
than the one provided will result in malfunction and could prove to be
dangerous.
The car adapter should only be connected to the lighter socket of a car (car
battery = DC 12V , truck battery = DC 24V !). If you are in any doubt about the
power source in your car, contact your car manufacturer.
Only use the mains adapter on grounded sockets at AC 100 – 240 V~, 50/60 Hz.
If you are unsure about the power supply to the place of use, ask the relevant
energy supplier.
The device should only be used with the supplied batteries.
About the power adaptor:
1. Do not use the power adaptor in a wet environment. When hands and feet are
wet, do not touch the power adaptor.
2. While using the power adaptor, ensure that the area is well ventilated. Do not
let paper or other material cover the power adaptor, as this will interfere with
cooling. Do not use the power adaptor whilst it is in a bag.
3. Do not attempt to repair the device. If device is damaged or is in a wet
environment, replace the device immediately.
4. It is not recommended to charge from a PC because the PC power voltage is
not enough to supply the device.
5. When installing the apparatus, ensure that the plug is easily accessible.
