The following table lists the safety precautions you should follow when installing your AP650 devices.
Aerohive devices must be installed by a professional installer who is certified to install these types of devices and to
ensure that they are properly grounded and meet applicable local and national electrical codes.
These devices are intended forindoor use only.
Do not install the device in an environment where the operating ambient temperature might exceed the recom-
mended ranges.
For products available in the USA/Canada market, for the 2.4 GHz band, only channels 1-11 can be operated. Selec-
tion of other channels is not possible.
Changes or modifications made to this device that are not expressly approved by the party responsible for com-
pliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

These devices are not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental cap-
abilities, or with lack of experience of knowledge unless they are given supervision or instruction concerning use of the
devices by a person who is responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the devices.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. ESD damage occurs when elec-
tronic components are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures. Be sure to follow ESD-pre-
vention procedures when handling electronic components and equipment.
During operation, the surfaces ofthe AP650 can become hot. Use caution when handling.
To meet federal radiation exposure requirements, these devices should be installed at a minimum distance of 12" (30
cm) from people or animals.
