safety Notice?

[charles]

I've just had delivery of a brand new light fitting - bought off ebay.

On the front of the enclosed leaflet is the following:

"when electrification situation don't switch button"

any good interpretere here?

[Jethro_uk]

Disconnect before fitting ?

[T i m]

Don't turn it on whilst fitting?

Cheers, T i m

This one had me all confused, a gas strut from an eBay seller.

When ye have such manual, it's either

#1 Perfect but has slight relation to the product, #2 Perfect has a relation to a competitor's product, #3 Perfect but is a completely different product, #4 Somewhat off piste, ' ' #100 Hamlet as typed by infinite number of monkeys less one.

I have to say, that although the text is pretty incomprehensible, the clear diagram is far better at getting the essentials over than the combined text and diagrams for struts I fitted to a kitchen cupboard last year!

Go by steam train ?

Turn off at the mains before installation? Does it have a rug terminal? You need to earth that...

[John Rumm]

don't turn on once connected to the electrical supply :-)

only 2 hole connector with snap down locking. Holes quite small, I had to make 3/.029 into 2/.029 - no metal parts

[Adrian Caspersz]

Looks like don't turn on if house electrics are currently affected by a bolt of lightning or power surges, or if ye have wet hands, or ye suspect it's been made poorly and the manufacturers are trying to cover their ass ;-)

Or this device is for decoration use only, never switch it on? Brian

[Brian Gaff (Sofa]

Do not use toilet while train is in the station? Brian

Always turn off at the breaker before flipping the light switch.
