To ensure your own personal safety and to avoid personal injury, you
necessarily must read, understand and follow the following and all other
safety instructions in this manual, before you install and operate your PC
card.
DANGER!
Lethal Electrical Shock caused by parts with more than 50V!
• HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE inside of the PC or of the connecting device.
• Therefore first disconnect the power plug of the PC or of the connecting
device.
• Make sure, that the power supply is off at the PC or at the connecting
device.
• Open the PC cabinet and install or remove the cifX Communication

An electrical shock is the result of a current flowing through the human
body. The resulting effect depends on the intensity and duration of the
current and on its path through the body. Currents in the range of
approximately ½ mA can cause effects in persons with good health, and
indirectly cause injuries resulting from startle responses. Higher currents
can cause more direct effects, such as burns, muscle spasms, or
ventricular fibrillation.
In dry conditions permanent voltages up to approximately 42.4 V peak or
60 V DC are not considered as dangerous, if the contact area is equivalent
to a human hand.
