• Do not use or store the device in dusty or dirty areas. Its parts and electronic components can be damaged.
• Do not store the device in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage
baeries, and warp or melt certain plascs.
• Do not store the device in cold areas. When the device returns to its normal temperature, moisture can form
inside the device and damage electronic circuit boards.
• Do not aempt to open the device.This product needs to be installed by qualified personnel.
• Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards and fine mechanics.
• Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the parts and prevent proper operaon.
• Unauthorized modificaons or aachments could damage the device and may violate regulaons governing radio
devices.
•Do not touch any internal or exposed parts of the device as electrical shock may result.
•Do not open the device while power is on. Otherwise electrical shock may result.
•Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the device.
•Be sure the venlaon holes are not obstructed during operaon. Otherwise malfuncon may result due to bad
