b) Connection and operation
• The product‘s design complies with protection class I. Only an earthed mains
socket connected to the public power supply may be used as power supply to
the product.
• The mains socket into which the countdown timer is plugged must be easily ac -
cessible.
• The countdown timer is equipped with a child safety device. Only when the pins
of the power plug are placed in both openings of the front socket at the same time
will the child-lock mechanism release the opening.
Nevertheless, take special caution when children are around. Children cannot rec-
ognise the danger arising from the incorrect use of electrical devices. There is a
risk of a life-threatening electric shock!
• The product is only intended for use in dry indoor locations. No part of the product
should become damp or wet; never handle it if your hands are wet! Never place
the product in the direct vicinity of a bathroom, shower , bathtub or the like. Lethal
hazard due to electric shock!
• Use the product only in a temperate climate, never in a tropical climate.
• Do not operate the device in environments where there are high levels of dust,
ammable gases, vapours or solvents. There is a danger of re and explosion!
• Never operate the countdown timer in a vehicle.
• Do not connect the product to the power supply immediately after it has been
transferred from a cold room into a warm one (e.g., during transport). The conden-
sation that forms might destroy the device. Moreover , there is danger of electric
shock! Allow the product to reach room temperature. Wait until the condensation
has evaporated. This might take several hours. Only after this should the product
be plugged into the power supply and put into use.
• Never pull out a mains plug that is connected to the front outlet of the countdown
timer by pulling on its cable. Always pull the plug out of the front socket by gripping
the area provided for this purpose on its sides.
• Do not overload the countdown timer . Observe the connected load in the chapter
“T echnical data”.
• Always unplug the countdown timer from the mains socket before cleaning it or
when the device will not be used for a long time.
• Never pour any liquids above or next to the product. Y ou run the risk of causing a
re or a fatal electric shock.
However , if liquid has entered the device, immediately turn off the power supply to
the mains socket to which the countdown timer is connected (turn off the fuse / cir-
cuit breaker / residual current operated circuit breaker of the associated circuits).
Only then can you unplug the countdown timer from the mains socket and contact
a specialist. Do not use the product any longer .
• Do not connect in series! This can lead to an overloading of the countdown timer!
There is a risk of re!
• Do not operate while covered! At higher connected loads, the countdown timer be-
comes hot, which could lead to overheating and, potentially , a re if it is covered!
• Only voltage-free when the plug is unplugged!
• If the countdown timer is damaged, do not touch it; there is a danger to life from
electric shock!
First, switch off the mains voltage to the socket, to which the countdown timer is
connected (switch off at the corresponding circuit breaker or remove the safety
fuse or switch off at the corresponding RCD protective switch, so that all poles of
the mains socket are disconnected).
Then you can remove the countdown timer from the mains socket. Do not use the
damaged countdown timer any more, dispose of it in an environmentally friendly
way .
