2. Safety of use

CAUTION! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or severe personal injury or death.

The term "unit" or "product" in the warnings and in the description of the instructions refers to the ELECTRICALLY HEIGHT-ADJUSTABLE DESK WITH A TABLE TOP.

2.1. Electrical safety

a) The plug of this unit must fit into the outlet. Do not modify the plug in any way. Original plugs and matching outlets reduce the risk of electric shock.
b) Do not touch the unit with wet or damp hands.
c) Do not use the cord in an unintended manner. Never use it to carry the unit or to pull the plug out of the socket. Keep the cord away from heat sources, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or tangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
d) If you cannot avoid using the unit in a wet environment, use a residual current unit (RCD). Using an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
e) Do not use the unit if the power cord is damaged or shows signs of wear. A damaged power cord should be replaced by a qualified electrician or the manufacturer's service department.
f) To avoid electric shock, do not immerse the cable, plug, or unit itself in water or other liquid. Do not use the unit on wet surfaces.
g) Do not use the unit in rooms with very high humidity / in the immediate vicinity of water tanks!
h) Do not allow the machine to get wet. Risk of electric shock!

2.2. Safety in the workplace

a) Keep the work area tidy and well lit. Disorder or poor lighting can lead to accidents. Be foresighted, watch what you are doing and use common sense when using the unit.
b) If you have any doubts as to whether the product is working properly or if it is damaged, contact the manufacturer's service department.
c) Only the manufacturer's service department may repair the product. Do not carry out repairs yourself!
d) Check the condition of the safety stickers regularly. Replace them if they are illegible.
e) Keep these instructions for use for future reference. If the unit is to be passed on to a third party, the operating instructions must also be handed over together with the unit.
f) Keep the packaging and small assembly parts out of the reach of children.
g) When using this machine together with other machines, also follow the other instructions for use.

Please note! Keep children and other bystanders safe while operating the unit.

2.3. Personal safety

a) Do not operate this product if you are tired, ill or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication that could impair your ability to operate the product.
b) The unit is not intended to be used by persons (including children) with reduced mental, sensory or intellectual functions or persons who lack experience and/or knowledge unless they are supervised or have been instructed by a person responsible for their safety on how to operate the unit.
c) The unit may be operated by persons who are physically fit, capable of operating it and appropriately trained, and who have read this instruction manual and have been trained in occupational safety and health.
d) Use caution and common sense when operating this unit. A moment's inattention during operation may result in serious personal injury.
e) To prevent accidental start-up, make sure the switch is in the off position before connecting to a power source.
f) Before switching the unit on, remove any regulating tools or keys. Any tools or keys left in the rotating part of the unit may cause injury.
g) The unit is not a toy. Children should be watched to ensure that they do not play with the unit.

2.4. Safe use of the unit

a) Do not overload the unit. Use tools that are suitable for the application. A correctly selected unit will do a better and safer job for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the unit if the ON/OFF switch does not function properly (does not turn on and off). Units that cannot be controlled by the switch are unsafe, cannot operate, and must be repaired.
c) Unplug the unit before making adjustments, changing accessories, or putting it away. This precaution reduces the risk of accidental start-up.
d) Disconnect the unit from the power supply before adjusting, cleaning, or servicing. This precaution reduces the risk of accidental start-up.
e) Keep the unit in good working condition. Check before each use for general damage or damage to moving parts (cracks in parts and components or any other condition that may affect the safe operation of the unit). If damaged, have the unit repaired before use.

f) Keep the unit out of the reach of children.

g) Repairs and maintenance should be carried out by qualified personnel using only original spare parts. This will ensure the safety of use.
h) To ensure the designed operational integrity of the unit, do not remove factory-installed covers or loosen screws.
i) When transporting or moving the unit from storage to the place of use, observe the health and safety rules for manual handling applicable in the country where the unit is used.
j) Avoid situations in which the machine stops under heavy loads during operation. This can cause overheating of the drive elements and consequent damage to the equipment.
k) Do not touch any moving parts or accessories unless the unit is unplugged.
I) Do not move, shift, or rotate the machine while in operation.
m) Do not leave the unit switched on unattended.
n) Clean the unit regularly to prevent permanent dirt build-up.

p) Do not tamper with the unit to alter its performance or design.
q) Keep the unit away from sources of fire and heat.
r) Do not overload the unit.
s) Exceeding the maximum allowable user weight may result in product damage.
t) Inappropriate use of the product, such as sitting on the worktop, may result in product damage and/or personal injury. Sitting on the desk top is prohibited to prevent serious injury.
u) Do not move or lie under the desk structure during adjustment. Do not sit or stand on the desk frame. Use extreme caution when making adjustments.
v) Check regularly whether the adjustment mechanism of the desk is working properly and remove any obstacles which may block the smooth adjustment of the desk.
w) Make sure that cables, connections and plugs do not interfere with the use of the product.
x) When adjusting the height of the desk, make sure that the lead wires are of sufficient length. The cables and connections that are too short may hinder height adjustment or damage other equipment.

CAUTION! Although the product has been designed to be safe, with adequate safeguards, and despite the additional safety features provided to the user, there is still a slight risk of accident or injury when handling the unit. You are advised to use caution and common sense when using this product.

3.3. Working with the device - operating the control panel

Caution: If using the control panel for the first time, the user should reset the system before working with the unit.

Resetting the system:

• Press and hold the "down" button (the button must be held until the reset process is complete). The display will show "r5t" and the desk will begin to lower the worktop level to its lowest position.
• The desk will then move up slightly and the display will show the current desk height. The reset process is now complete.
  Caution: When a system reset is required, disconnect and reconnect the power to the desk, and then follow the instructions above.

Height adjustment:

- Press and hold the "up" / "down" button to raise/lower the desk to the desired height.

Timer Adjuster:

• Press "T" to receive a reminder to change position. Each press of "T" leads to an increase in the time value by 0.5 hours. The maximum time setting is 2 hours.
• When the timer is successfully set, the light in the upper right corner will be illuminated.
• After the set time has elapsed, the unit will beep 3 times to remind the user to change position.
• To clear the reminder, press the "T" button until the indicator light in the upper right corner goes out.

Memory settings:

• To store the desk height in memory, press the "M" button, "5-" will flash on the display. Press the 1/2/3 key while flashing to select under which key the position will be stored.
• To recall the previously stored height, press the 1/2/3 key and the desk will start to move the desk top to that position. Press any key to stop the movement.

Switching the height unit (centimeters or inches)

• Press and hold down the "T" button for about 3 seconds.
• The unit will beep once when changing units to centimeters (CM), and will beep twice when changing units to inches (IN).

Caution: Disconnect and reconnect the power supply to the desk when a unit change is needed.

Power saving mode:

- If no button is pressed within 1 min, the system will enter power save mode and the display will dim. Pressing any button will reactivate the control panel.
