Safety Instructions
The appliance must be grounded. The Orion 410SR NAS System is
equipped with a 3-wire grounded type of power cord. This power
cord will only fit into a grounded type of power outlet.
If an extension cord or a power center is used with the Orion 410SR
NAS System, make sure that the total current consumption of all
products plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the ampere
rating.
Do not place the Orion 410SR NAS System where the cord will be
walked on.
Never push any object into the Orion 410SR NAS System through
cabinet gaps and openings, since it may touch dangerous voltage
points and cause a risk of fire or electric shock.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before cleaning. Keep the
Orion 410SR NAS System dry. Do not use liquid cleaners, aerosol
cleaners, or a wet cloth. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
Except as specifically explained in this User Manual, do not attempt
to service the Orion 410SR NAS System by yourself. Opening or
removing the covers may expose you to dangerous voltages.
Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to quali-
fied service personnel under the following conditions.
• If the Orion 410SR NAS System has been exposed to water or
any liquid.
• If the Orion 410SR NAS System has been dropped or the cabinet
damaged.
Users should not remove the cover of the Orion 410SR NAS System.
Disconnect all power supply cords before servicing, and only autho-
rized personnel should perform servicing tasks.

Limited Warranty
Limited Warranty
MaxTronic International Co., Ltd. guarantees all Orion 410SR NAS Systems are precisely
tested before they leave the factory and able to function normally under general conditions. In
case of any system malfunction under normal usage during the warranty period, MaxTronic
international Co., Ltd. and its local representatives will be responsible for the repair without
charging.
Placement Notes
• The NAS system LCD panel can be damaged by exposure to direct
sunlight. Limit exposure to subdued or indirect sunlight only.
• The NAS system should be used only in clean environments that are
free from airborne contaminants such as dust, dirt, and smoke. Exces-
sive moisture or oil particles in the air can also hinder NAS system
performance.
• To reduce the possibility of data errors caused by electromagnetic
interference, locate the NAS system at least five feet away from elec-
trical appliances and equipment that generate magnetic fields.
Power Supply Safety Notes
• To avoid electric shocks, do not use an extended power cord or an
outlet that does not match the NAS system plug or leaves the plug
exposed.
• The NAS system has a 3-wire grounded plug. The third pin connects
to ground; do not remove it.
• If the power cord or plug is damaged or worn, unplug it immediately
and contact a qualified service technician for maintenance.
• To avoid fire or electric shocks, do not overload electric power out-
lets.
CAUTION : MULTIPLE POWER SORUCES
Disconnect all AC cords to completely remove power from the unit.
CAUTION
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
CAUTION : MULTIPLE POWER SORUCES
The thumbscrews on the rear surface shall be secured by the screwdriver, which
cannot be loosened by bare hands to prevent the unintentional access to the haz-
ardous parts inside the equipment.
