built-in installation unless proper ventilation is provided.
7. This product should only be operated from the type of power
source indicated on the marking label of the AC adapter. If you
are not sure of the type of power available, consult your
Datavideo dealer or your local power company.
8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this
unit where the power cord will be walked on, rolled over, or
otherwise stressed.
9. If an extension cord must be used with this unit, make sure that
the total of the ampere ratings on the products plugged into the
extension cord do not exceed the extension cord’s rating.

3
10. Make sure that the total amperes of all the units that are plugged
into a single wall outlet do not exceed 15 amperes.
11. Never push objects of any kind into this unit through the cabinet
ventilation slots, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or
short out parts that could result in risk of fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind onto or into this unit.
12. Except as specifically explained elsewhere in this manual, do not
attempt to service this product yourself. Opening or removing
covers that are marked “Do Not Remove” may expose you to
dangerous voltage points or other risks, and will void your
warranty. Refer all service issues to qualified service personnel.

to the unit and may often require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore the unit to normal operation;
e. When the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been
damaged;
f. When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance,
indicating a need for service.
