DANGER

If the installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the router, make sure you use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the router.

For information about powering on the system, refer to “Activating the power source” on page 297.
