plate.
If you are unsure of the power supply at the
installation location, contact your power supply
company.
Warning
Avoid data loss!
Always use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS)
with overvoltage protection.
Disconnect the device from the mains power supply
before carrying out maintenance or installation work.
The on/off switch does not completely disconnect the
device from the mains power supply.
To disconnect the device completely from the mains
power supply, the plug must be disconnected from

positioned so that direct and unobstructed access to
the mains socket is guaranteed at all times and the
plug can be disconnected immediately in an
emergency.

Important safety information
11
To avoid the possibility of fires, the plug should always be
disconnected from the network socket if the device is not
used for long periods. Disconnect the device from the
mains power supply before impending electrical storms,
or use an uninterruptible power supply.
Warning
Never open the device on your own! There is a
risk of electric shocks!
If it is necessary to open the device, consult
trained personnel or your local maintenance
specialist.
The installation or modification of a HDD should only
be made by trained personnel or your local
maintenance specialist.
Warning
The installation of additional equipment or
modification of the device invalidates your
guarantee if not carried out by trained personnel.
We recommend having the HDD installed by a
maintenance specialist.
Your guarantee is invalidated in the event of
improper installation of the HDD.
Overloading / overvoltage
Avoid overloading of mains sockets, extension cables
and adapters as this can result in fires or electric
shocks.
Use overvoltage protection to prevent damages
caused by overvoltage (e.g. electrical storms).
Cables
Always hold cables by the connector, and do not pull
the cable itself.
Never touch the mains cable with wet hands, as this
can lead to a short circuit or electric shock.
Never position the device, furniture or other heavy
items on the cable. Ensure that the cable does not
become kinked, especially on the connector and
sockets.
Never knot the cable, and do not tie it to other cables.
All cables should be laid so that they cannot be
stepped on or cause an obstruction.
A damaged mains cable can cause a fire or electric
shock. Check the mains cable from time to time.
Never modify or manipulate the mains cable or plug.
Do not use plug adapters or extension cables that do
not conform to the applicable safety standards, and do
not make alterations to power supply cables or mains
cables.
Installation location / operating
environment
Position the device on a firm, level surface and do not
place any heavy objects on the device.
The device is not designed for operation in rooms
subject to high temperatures or moisture (e.g.
bathrooms), or in excessively dusty rooms.
Operating temperature and ambient humidity:
-10 °C to 55 °C, maximum 85% relative humidity. The
device may only be operated in moderate climate
conditions.
Ensure the following:
Sufficient ventilation must be present at all times (do
not place the device in a storage rack, on thick
carpets, on a bed or anywhere where the ventilation
slots are covered. Make sure that a gap of at least
10 cm is present on all sides).
The device must not be exposed to direct heat
sources (e.g. heaters).
The device must not be exposed to direct sunlight or
strong artificial light.
The device must not be placed in close proximity to
magnetic fields (e.g. loudspeakers).
Naked flames (e.g. candles) must not be placed on or
near the device.
Contact with spraying or dripping water and
aggressive liquids must be avoided.
The device must not be operated in close proximity to
water, and must not be submerged under any
circumstances (do not place objects containing water
on or near the device, such as vases or drinks).
Foreign objects must not penetrate the device.
The device must not be exposed to strong variations
in temperature, as this can lead to condensation and
electrical short circuits.
The device must not be exposed to excessive jolts or
vibrations.
Remote control
Remove all batteries if the device will not be used for
a sustained period, as these can leak and damage
the device.

Important safety information

Care and maintenance
Maintenance is necessary if the device has been
damaged. This includes damage to the plug, mains cable
and housing, penetration of the interior by liquids or
foreign objects, exposure to rain or moisture or when the
device does not work properly or has fallen.
Disconnect the device from the mains power supply
before maintenance (e.g. cleaning).
If smoke develops or unusual noises or odours are
detected, then switch off the device immediately and
pull the mains plug from the socket. In such cases,
the device should not be used until it has been
inspected by a qualified technician.
Maintenance work should only be carried out by
qualified specialists.
Never open the housing on the device or
accessories. There is a risk of fatal injury due to an
electric shock when the housing is opened.
Clean the device housing and remote control with a
damp cloth.
Do not use solvents, white spirit or thinners as these
can damage the surface of the device.
Do not use any of the following substances:
Salt water, insecticides, solvents containing chlorine
or acids (ammonium chloride) or scouring powder.
Gently rub the surface with a cotton cloth until it is
completely dry.
Warning
The device works under dangerous voltages. The
device must only be opened by authorised
specialists. All maintenance and service work
must be carried out by authorised firms. Improper
repairs can expose device users to the risk of fatal
injury.
Accessories
Only connect devices that are suitable for the
intended purpose. Otherwise, hazardous situations or
damage to the device can occur.
Putting into operation
Observe all safety and operating instructions before
putting the device into operation for the first time.
Only open the housing to install the HDD.
Warning
When installing the device in an existing video
surveillance system, ensure that all devices are
disconnected from the mains power supply and
low-voltage circuit.
Warning
If in doubt, have a specialist technician carry out
assembly, installation and connection of the
device.
Improper or unprofessional work on the mains
power supply or domestic installation puts both
you and other persons at risk.
Connect the installations so that the mains power
circuit and low-voltage circuit always run
separately from each other. They should not be
connected at any point or become connected as a
result of a malfunction.
Children and the device
Do not allow children access to electrical devices.
Never allow children to use electrical devices without
supervision. Children may not be able to accurately
detect possible risks. Small parts can be life-
threatening if swallowed.
Keep batteries away from small children. Call for
medical assistance immediately if a battery is
swallowed.
Keep packaging materials away from children
(danger of suffocation).
This device should not be used by children. If used
improperly, spring-loaded parts can be ejected and
cause injuries to children (e.g. eye injuries).
