Safety Information

Follow these safety guidelines to ensure your own personal safety and to help protect your system from potential damage.

•AC input: 100–240V~, 0.1A (Max).

•Operating temperature: 0C~40 degrees C.

•Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate.

•Observe and follow service markings.

•Do not service any product except as explained in your system documentation.

•Opening or removing covers that are marked with the triangular symbol with a lightning bolt may expose you to electrical shock. Only a trained service technician should service components inside these compartments.

•If any of the following conditions occur, unplug the product from the electrical outlet and replace the part or contact your trained service provider:

•The power cable, extension cable, or plug is damaged.

•An object has fallen into the product.

•The product has been exposed to water.
