The heat sealer should not be opened by unauthorized staff to avoid any injuriescaused by electric shock or by the transport mechanism.___________________________________________________________WARNING
Guarantee and warranty will become void as soon as the heat sealer has beenopened by unauthorized staff without prior written permission by Famos bv .
WARNING Ventilator__________________________________________________
Obstructing the ventilator at the bottom of the heat sealer could cause overheating tothe electronic components within the heat sealer. This could cause serious damageto the heat sealer. Please check the cleanliness of the finger protector grill of thisventilator regularly, to avoid clogging which will cause improper cooling.Cleaning the grill should be done with the power supply socket disconnected from theheat sealer.___________________________________________________________WARNING
WARNING Automatic feed-in _________________________________________
Although the automatic paper feed-in of the heat sealer is protected, one shouldprevent small articles (like small tips of instruments) from being fed in together withthe packaging. These objects may cause internal damage to the transportationmechanism as well as to your instruments. Never put objects other than packagingmaterial into the heat sealer.___________________________________________________________WARNING
WARNING Power supply ______________________________________________
The only power supply cable which may be used to connect your heat sealer to thepower supply socket is the one which is supplied together with the machine. Otherpower supply cables may not be used.___________________________________________________________WARNING

Transport and storage
The heat sealer should always be transported in its original box or appropriate return
box provided and stowed in such a way that the machine can not move within its box.Using other packaging materials than the originals can lead to damage on the in- andoutside of the heat sealer. For packaging instructions please contact your Famosdealer.
There are no special storage instructions except that the casing should be kept dry.
Please store the standard transport box, including filling foam, for future use, as youmight like to ship the heat sealer for preventive maintenance or calibration. This willensure a maximum level of protection (if properly placed) against transportationdamages.

Maintenance
Routine maintenanceThere is no need for routine maintenance other than regularly cleaning the ventilator on thebottom of the machine. This will prevent dust from clogging the grills of the finger protector,which would result in insufficient cooling.
Preventive maintenanceThe Famos Heat Sealers are subject to preventive maintenance once a year. In some countriesa higher rate of preventive maintenance is required by guidelines of the local CentralSterilization Organization. Please check whether this is applicable to your area.
