injuries.
●Check whether the power supply is correct before use.
●Do not unplug the power cord on the side of the Device while the adapter is powered on.
●Operate the Device within the rated range of power input and output.
●Use the Device under allowed humidity and temperature conditions.
●Do not drop or splash liquid onto the Device, and make sure that there is no object filled with
liquid on the Device to prevent liquid from flowing into it.
●Do not disassemble the Device without professional instruction.
●Your configurations will be lost after performing a factory reset. Please be advised.
●Do not restart, shut down or disconnect the power to the Device during an update.
◇Make sure the update file is correct because an incorrect file can result in a Device error
occurring.
◇The system cannot upgrade different types of AI modules at the same time.
●Do not frequently turn on/off the Device. Otherwise, the product life might be shortened.
●Back up important data on a regular basis when using the Device.
●Operating temperature: 0 °C to 45 °C (32 °F to 113 °F).
Installation Requirements
●Do not connect the power adapter to the Device while the adapter is powered on.
●Strictly comply with the local electric safety code and standards. Make sure the ambient voltage
is stable and meets the power supply requirements of the Device.
●Do not expose the battery to environments with extremely low air pressure, or extremely high or
low temperatures. Also, it is strictly prohibited for the battery to be thrown into a fire or furnace,
and to cut or put mechanical pressure on the battery. This is to avoid the risk of fire and
explosion.
●Use the standard power adapter or cabinet power supply. We will assume no responsibility for

●The Device is a class I electrical appliance. Make sure that the power supply of the Device is
connected to a power socket with protective earthing.
●Use power cords that conform to your local requirements, and are rated specifications.
●Before connecting the power supply, make sure the input voltage matches the server power
requirement.
●When installing the Device, make sure that the power plug and appliance coupler can be easily
reached to cut off power.
●Install the server in an area that only professionals can access.
●Extra protection is necessary for the Device casing to reduce the transient voltage to the defined
range.
