Important Information
IMPORTANT GUIDELINES
•Do not expose the DVR to moisture. Water is the
•Avoid dusty locations. Dust has a tendency to build up inside the DVR case, leading to a high risk of failure or even fire.
•Only install the DVR in a well ventilated space. The circuitry and hard drive in the DVR produces a significant amount of heat, and this heat needs a way out.
•Do not open the DVR case except to install/swap the hard drive inside. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
•Never open the case whilst the DVR is plugged in, and never turn the DVR on whilst the case is open.
•Use only the supplied power adapter. Other adapters may cause damage to the DVR or cause a fire.
•Do not cut or modify any cable for any reason. Doing so will void your warranty, as well as pose a great risk of fire or electrical shock.
•Do not expose the DVR to sudden bumps or shocks (for example, being dropped). The DVR is as robust as possible, but many of the internal components are quite fragile.
•Remember that the DVR is, in all likelihood, going to be left on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Keep this in mind when choosing a location for installation.
