Safety warnings and Cautions
The following are warnings and cautions for the safety of the users
and for the prevention of any property damage. Please read the
following carefully.
WARNING
• Turn off the system before installation. Do not plug in several
electric devices to the same outlet.
-Thismaycauseheating,re,orelectricshock.
• Do not place any liquid container on the system, such as water,
coffee, or other beverage.
-If liquid is poured onto the system, it can cause a system
breakdownorre.
• Prevent the power cable from being severely bent or having
pressure exerted on it by a heavy object.
-Thismaycausere.
• Clean the dust around the system on a regular basis. When
cleaning the system, always use a dry cloth. Do not use a wet cloth
or other organic solvents.
-This may damage the surface of the system and can cause a
systembreakdownorelectricshock.
• Keep the surface of the system clean and dry.
• Avoid any place with moisture, dust, or soot.
-Thiscancausereorelectricshock.
• When pulling the power cable from the plug, do so gently. Do not
touch the plug with wet hands and avoid using the plug if the
holes in the outlet are too loose.
-Thismaycausereorelectricshock.
• Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the system
on your own. It is extremely dangerous due to the high voltage
running through the system.
-Thismaycausere,electricshock,orseriousinjury.
• Checkforanydangersignssuchasamoistoor,aloosenedor
damaged power cable, or an unstable surface. If you encounter
anyproblems,askyourdealerforassistance.
-Thismaycausereorelectricshock.
• Keepadistanceofatleast15cmbetweenthebackofthesystem
and the wall for the cables connected to the system otherwise,
they may be bent, damaged, or cut.
-Thismaycausere,electricshock,orinjury.
• Install the system in a cool place without direct sunlight and
always maintain room temperature. Avoid candlelight and heat
generating devices such as heaters. Keep the system away from
places where many people pass.
-Thismaycausere.
• Installthesystemonaplainsurfacewithsufcientairventilation.
Do not place the system on an elevated surface.
-Thismaycausesystembreakdownorseriousinjury.
• The power outlet must be placed on the ground, and the voltage
range must be within 10 % of the voltage rate. Do not use the
same outlet with a hair dryer, iron, refrigerator, or any heating
appliances.
-Thismaycausere,overheatingorelectricshock.
• When the system’s battery is depleted, replace it with the same or
equivalenttypeofbatteryspeciedbythemanufacturer.Depleted
batteries should be discarded according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
-This may cause an explosion.
• If the system’s HDD exceeds its life span, you may not be able to
recover any data stored inside the HDD. If the video on the system
screen appears ‘damaged’ while playing a recording stored inside
thesystem’sHDD,itmustbereplacedwithanewone.Askforan
engineer’s assistance for HDD replacement from your dealer.
-LG Electronics is not responsible for deleted data caused by
user mishandling.
• PLEASE DO NOT MOUNT OR UN-MOUNT HDDs WHILE SYSTEM
IS POWERED ON.
-Thismaycausesystembreakdown.
CAUTION

come into contact with moisture, dust, or soot.
• Avoid placing in direct sunlight or near heating appliances.
• Keeptheproductawayfromelectricsparksormagnetic
substances.
• Do not place any conductive material through the ventilation grills.
• Keep the system turned off before installation.
• Ensure enough space is left for cable connections.
• Placethesystemonasolidsurfacewithsufcientairventilation.
Avoid any surface that vibrates.
• Placing the system near electronic devices such as a radio or a TV
maycausetheproducttobreakdown.
• Donotdisassembletheproductwithoutseekingassistancefrom
LG Electronics.
• Prevent any substances from being inserted into the system.
-Thismaycausesystembreakdown.
• Installthesysteminaplacewithsufcientairventilation.
-Keepatleast15cmdistancebetweenthebackofthesystem
and the wall, and at least 5 cm distance between the side of
the system and the wall.

Safety Information
• Do not install the system in a place with high magnetic, electric
wave, or wireless devices such as a radio or a TV.
-Do not install the system in a place with magnetic objects,
electric frequencies, or vibration.
• Do not place any heavy object on the system.
-Thismaycausesystembreakdown.
• Install the system on a stable, level surface.

• Avoid direct sunlight or any heating appliances.
-Recommended operating temperature is over 0 °C (32 °F).
• Ventilate the air inside the system operation room, and tighten
thesystemcoverrmly.
-Systembreakdownmaybecausedbyaninappropriate
environment. It is recommended to use AVR (Automatic
Voltage Regulator) for a stable power supply. It is
recommended to coil the core-ferrite around the connector of
the system to avoid electromagnetic interference.
• The outlet must be placed on the ground.
• If there are any problems or a strange noise and smell, unplug the
power cable immediately and contact the service center.
-Thismaycausereorelectricshock.

checkedregularlybytheservicecenter.
-LGElectronicsisnotheldresponsibleforsystembreakdown
caused by user mishandling.
-Thereisariskofexplosionifabatteryisreplacedbyan
incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the
instructions.
• Use the mouse which is supplied from this unit.
-Otherwise, the system may not operate properly.
• Do not connect more than 3 ea of PoE+ IP camera at once. (Up 9
to 2 ea available)
-The system may not operate properly.

Note for Hard Disk Drive
Theinternalharddiskdrive(HDD)isafragilepieceofequipment.
Please follow the guidelines below when using the system to protect
againstpossibleHDDfailure.Werecommendthatyoubackupyour
importantrecordingsontoanexternalbackupdeviceinorderto
prevent accidental loss.
MakesurethatthepoweristurnedOFFwhenattachingorremoving
the HDD.
• Do not move the system while the power is on.
• Do not move this device with the power on.
• Do not use the system in excessively hot or humid places, or in
places that may be subject to sudden changes in temperature.
Sudden changes in temperature can cause condensation to form
inside the system. This can be a cause of HDD failure.
• While the system is switched on, do not unplug from the wall
socketorswitchtheelectricityofffromthebreakerswitch.

coins or screwdrivers into the HDD tray.
• When a power failure occurs during recording, avoid adding,
replacing or transporting the HDD as the recorded data may be
erased.Inthiscase,turnthepowerbackontobootuptheunit
normally with the HDD that was being used at the time of the
power failure attached. Then add, replace, or transport the HDD.
• The HDD is very delicate. Handle the HDD with care and follow
theprecautionsbelowbecauseevenatinyshockmaydamagethe
internal components of the HDD.
-DonotplacetheHDDonthedeskortabledirectly.Puta
thickcushionundertheHDDbecauseevenasmallshockmay
damage the internal components of the HDD.
-Donotuseanelectricscrewdriver.Vibrationsandshocks
caused by an electric screwdriver may damage the internal
components of the HDD.
-WhenreplacingtheHDD,donotknocktheHDDwithother
components such as another HDD and the HDD tray.
-DonotknocktheHDDwithtoolssuchasadriverwhen
replacing the HDD.
• Protecttheharddiskdrivesfromstaticelectricity.
