Warnings and Precautions
To use the CPE properly and safely, read these warnings and precautions carefully and
strictly observe them during operation. Unless otherwise specified, the CPE described in
this section includes the CPE and its accessories.
Basic Requirements
During storage, transportation, and operation of the CPE, keep it dry and prevent it from
colliding with other objects.
Do not dismantle the CPE. In case of any fault, contact an authorized service center for
assistance or repair.
Without authorization, no organization or individual can change the mechanical, safety,
or performance design of the CPE.
When using the CPE, observe all applicable laws and regulations and respect the legal
rights of other people.
Environmental Requirements for Using the CPE
Before connecting and disconnecting cables, stop using the CPE, and then disconnect
it from the power supply. Ensure that your hands are dry during operation.
Keep the CPE far from sources of heat and fire, such as a heater or a candle.
Keep the CPE far from electronic appliances that generate strong magnetic or electric
fields, such as a microwave oven or a refrigerator.
Place the CPE on a stable surface.
Place the CPE in a cool and well-ventilated indoor area. Do not expose the CPE to
direct sunlight. Use the CPE in an area with a temperature ranging from 0°C to 40°C.
Do not block the openings on the CPE with any object. Reserve a minimum space of 10
cm around the CPE for heat dissipation.

11
Do not place any object (such as a candle or a water container) on the CPE. If any
foreign object or liquid enters the CPE, stop using the CPE immediately, power it off,
remove all the cables connected to it, and then contact an authorized service center.
During thunderstorms, power off the CPE, and then remove all the cables connected to
it to prevent it from getting damaged due to lightning strikes.
Precautions for Using Wireless CPEs
When using the CPE, ensure that the antenna of the CPE is at least 20 cm away from
all persons.
Do not use the CPE where using wireless CPEs is prohibited or may cause interference
or danger.
The radio waves generated by the CPE may interfere with the operation of electronic
medical CPEs. If you are using any electrical medical CPE, contact its manufacturer for
the restrictions on the use of the CPE.
Do not take the CPE into operating rooms, intensive care units (ICUs), or coronary care
units (CCUs).
Areas with Inflammables and Explosives
Do not use the CPE where inflammables or explosives are stored, for example, in a gas
station, oil depot, or chemical plant. Otherwise, explosions or fires may occur. In
addition, follow the instructions indicated in text or symbols.
Do not store or transport the CPE in the same box as inflammable liquids, gases, or
explosives.
Accessory Requirements
Use only the accessories supplied or authorized by the CPE manufacturer. Otherwise,
the performance of the CPE may get affected, the warranty for the CPE or the laws and
regulations related to telecommunications terminals may become null and void, or an
injury may occur.

12
Do not use the power adapter if its cable is damaged. Otherwise, electric shocks or fires
may occur.
Ensure that the power adapter meets the specifications indicated on the CPE
nameplate.
Ensure that the power adapter meets the requirements of Clause 2.5 in
IEC60950-1/EN60950-1 and it is tested and approved according to national or local
standards.
Safety of Children
Keep the CPE and its accessories out of the reach of children. Otherwise, they may damage
the CPE and its accessories by mistake, or they may swallow the small components of the
CPE, causing suffocation or other dangerous situations.
Maintenance
If the CPE is not used for a long time, power it off, and then remove all the cables
connected to it.
If any exception occurs, for example, if the CPE emits any smoke or unusual sound or
smell, stop using the CPE immediately, power it off, remove all the cables connected to
it, and then contact an authorized service center.
Do not trample, pull, or overbend any cable. Otherwise, the cable may get damaged,
causing malfunction of the CPE.
Before cleaning the CPE, stop using it, power it off, and then remove all the cables
connected to it.
Use a clean, soft, and dry cloth to clean the CPE shell. Do not use any cleaning agent
or spray to clean the CPE shell.
