• Non-rechargeable batteries, such as alkaline

batteries, may leak if left in your product for a

long period of time. Remove the batteries

from the product if you are not going to use it

for a month or more.

• If your product uses more than one battery,

do not mix types and make sure they are

inserted correctly. Mixing types or inserting

incorrectly may cause them to leak.

• Discard any leaky or deformed battery

immediately. They may cause skin burns or

other personal injury.

• Please help to protect the environment by

recycling or disposing of batteries according

to federal, state, and local regulations.

FCC information

This equipment has been tested and found to

comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,

pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are

designed to provide reasonable protection

against harmful interference in a residential

installation. This equipment generates, uses, and

can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not

installed and used in accordance with the

instructions, may cause harmful interference to

radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference

will not occur in a particular installation. If this

equipment does cause harmful interference to

radio or television reception, which can be

determined by turning the equipment off and

on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the

interference by one or more of the following

measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the

equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a

circuit different from that to which the

receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/

TV technician for help.

Modifications not expressly approved by the

party responsible for compliance could void the

user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Information

Card

Ethernet cable

Quick Start

Guide

Additional requirements

• Broadband Internet service

• Broadband (cable/DSL) modem, usually supplied by your Internet service provider

• An 802.11 b or g (Wi-Fi) wireless home network or Ethernet router/switch/hub with available LAN

port

For Wi-Fi connections, you may also need:

using the Wireless Equivalent Privacy

(WEP) keys or Wi-Fi Protected Access

(WPA and WPA2) standards.

• WEP keys are either 10 or 26 characters

long (characters: 0-9 and A-F) (e.g.

6E78214A52). Note that some Wi-Fi
