Safety Instructions
Please read all of these instructions carefully before you use the device. Save this manual for
future reference.
■ Unplug equipment before cleaning. Don’t use liquid or spray detergent; use a moist cloth.
■ Keep equipment away from excessive humidity and heat. Preferably, keep it in an air-conditioned environment with
temperatures not exceeding 40º Celsius (104º Fahrenheit).
■ When installing, place the equipment on a sturdy, level surface to prevent it from accidentally falling and causing dam
age to other equipment or injury to persons nearby.
■ When the equipment is in an open position, do not cover, block or in any way obstruct the gap between it and the
power supply. Proper air convection is necessary to keep it from overheating.
■ Arrange the equipment’s power cord in such a way that others won’t trip or fall over it.
■ If you are using a power cord that didn’t ship with the equipment, ensure that it is rated for the voltage and current
labelled on the equipment’s electrical ratings label. The voltage rating on the cord should be higher than the one listed
on the equipment’s ratings label.
■ Observe all precautions and warnings attached to the equipment.
■ If you don’t intend on using the equipment for a long time, disconnect it from the power outlet to prevent being dam
aged by transient over-voltage.
■ Keep all liquids away from the equipment to minimize the risk of accidental spillage. Liquid spilled on to the power
supply or on other hardware may cause damage, fi re or electrical shock.
■ Only qualifi ed service personnel should open the chassis. Opening it yourself could damage the equipment and invali
date its warranty.
■ If any part of the equipment becomes damaged or stops functioning, have it checked by qualifi ed service personnel.
What the warranty does not cover
■ Any product, on which the serial number has been defaced, modifi ed or removed.
■ Damage, deterioration or malfunction resulting from:
□ Accident, misuse, neglect, fi re, water, lightning, or other acts of nature, unauthorized product modifi cation, or
failure to follow instructions supplied with the product.
□ Repair or attempted repair by anyone not authorized by us.
□ Any damage of the product due to shipment.
□ Removal or installation of the product.
□ Causes external to the product, such as electric power fl uctuation or failure.
□ Use of supplies or parts not meeting our specifi cations.
□ Normal wear and tear.
□ Any other causes which does not relate to a product defect.
■ Removal, installation, and set-up service charges.
