	∙ The equipment must only be used in dry rooms.
	∙ The equipment must only be opened, serviced, and repaired by authorised personnel. The
		equipment contains no user-serviceable parts.
	∙ Before connecting the equipment to power, check that the AC mains voltage stated on the
		supplied AC adapter is identical to the AC mains voltage available where you will use the
		equipment.
	∙	Only operate the equipment with the supplied AC adapter with a 12-VDC output. Using
		adapters with a different output voltage or current type may cause serious damage to the
		unit.
