recording, playing or from the configuration menu. Stop recordings and playback in progress before
disconnecting power from the device to prevent damaging the hard disk beyond repair.
1.3.2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Keep the device away from rain and humidity to prevent risk of fire and electrocution. Do not introduce material
(solid or liquid) inside. If this should accidentally occur, disconnect the device from the mains and have it
inspected by qualified personnel.
Never open the device. In all cases, contact a qualified personnel or authorised service centre for repairs.
Keep the device away from children, to prevent accidental damage.
Do not touch the device with wet hands to prevent electrical shock or mechanical damage.
Do not use the device if it should fall or the external casing is damaged. Risk of electrocution if the device is used
in such conditions. Contact the retailer or authorised installer.
1.3.3 INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
To prevent overheating the device, arrange it in a position allowing the flow of air through the slots in the casing.
Ensure at least 5 cm of free space when installing inside a rack. For the same reason, do not install sources of
heat, such as radiators or hot air ducts. Keep away from direct sunlight. Do not install in areas subject to
excessive dust, mechanical vibrations or shocks.
Do not arrange this device on an unstable surface, such as a tottering or slanted table. The device could fall
causing injury or mechanical failures.
Do not install the device in a place where it could be exposed to humidity or water. Do not direct a jet of water
onto the device: risk of fire, electrocution or mechanical failure.
Stop using the device if water or other material should penetrate inside: risk of fire and electrocution. Contact the
retailer or authorised installer.
Do not place heavy or heat generating objects on top of the device: this could damage the casing and/or increase
internal temperature causing faults.
Do not cover the device with a cloth while it is running to prevent deforming the external casing and overheating
the internal parts: risk of fire, electrocution and mechanical failure.
Keep magnets and magnetised objects away from the device to prevent faults.
Do not use the device in presence of smoke, vapour, humidity, dust or intense vibrations.
