Operating Instructions
Safety Information
Carefully read all the way through these operating instructions and pass on the enclosed information to any other possible users or owners of the fire extinguisher. Read
these instructions carefully before setting up or installing the fire extinguisher at the place of use and before using it for the first time
•National regulations for the operation of fire extinguishers in their latest version have to be observed as a matter of priority.
•If possible, users of fire extinguishers must be suitably instructed how to use and made aware of any potential dangers from misuse. Keep small children away from fire
extinguishers!
•Appropriate use is explained by the lettering plate with pictogram-style explanations.
•CO2has a suffocating effect! Take care when operating the unit in confined and poorly ventilated spaces. The CO 2concentration in the air may not exceed 5 vol. %, i.e. the
breathing air volume must be approx. 11 m3for 1 kg CO2.
•Do not direct the jet of extinguishing agent at persons. There is danger of suffocation or cold burn.
•Only persons with suitable specialist knowledge (persons specially trained by the manufacturer, e.g. authorized after-sales services) may open or service the fire
extinguisher obeying the latest instructions for maintenance.
•The service life of the unit must be determined by the owner on the basis of a hazard assessment, taking account of the operating conditions. Due to possible material fatigue, we
urgently recommend that a service life of 20 years should not be exceeded.
•The tank can be under pressure, do not subject the fire extinguisher to external force, do not open it forcibly.
•Damaged or corroded tanks or fittings must be depressurized by an authorized person.
•It is not allowed to make any changes to the tank, for example, by welding or soldering.
•Keep the fire extinguisher clean, do not use aggressive cleaning agents, only clean it with a damp cloth.
•Body shells and valves may only be used for extinguishers.
•Vessels and valves have a cylindrical M 25 X 2 thread.
•Do not subject it to direct sunlight.
•Only dispose of the fire extinguisher through a recognized disposal company once it has been completely emptied and depressurized.
•Always attach fire extinguishers in vehicles firmly. Use holders recommended by the manufacturer only. Attach the fire extinguishers so that they cannot be damaged by the
anticipated vibrations and movements or fall out of the holders..
•Only pass on this fire extinguisher to a third party if these operating instructions are included!
