Installation procedure:
Slide the upper top-hat rail clip upwards and the lower clip downwards until they
reach the points at which they click into place.
Position the device on the top-hat rail from the front.
Slide the two top-hat rail clips together again until they click into place.
To remove the device, slide the top-hat rail clips upwards or downwards, as applicable (see
1.), and remove the device from the top-hat rail. It is also sufficient to open one of the two
top-hat rail clips and tilt the device accordingly in order to remove it from the top-hat rail.
