2.2 Safety Information
Read the instructions before operating and keep them
nearby. Be sure to follow all directions in the manual.
Do not open unit or fuel cartridges. Do not use force to
open cartridges and do not refill them. Any
modifications to the unit may affect safe operation, will
lead to a loss of license and will void the warranty. Use
only original EFOY equipment.
Do not store unit and fuel cartridges at temperatures
above 45° C. Do not operate at temperatures above
45° C. Keep away from heat and direct sunlight.
Store the unit where there is no danger of freezing, or
use the automatic antifreeze feature. (see Chapter 5.10)
Do not smoke when handling the unit or the fuel
cartridges.
Keep away from heat and open flame.
There is a danger of fire if methanol leaks out (i.e.
following an accident, or if the unit or the fuel cartridge
has been damaged). Keep away from open fire and
make sure area is well ventilated. Small amounts of
methanol which may leak out will evaporate without
leaving any residue.

inhaled, ingested or if it comes into contact with skin. In

cartridge label or these instructions to the consultation.
(A caution concerning methanol can be found in the
appendix.)

Avoid inhaling exhaust directly or for prolonged periods
of time. Use the exhaust hose to conduct exhaust gases
