WARNING

In accordance with the requirements of council direc- tive 2002/96/EC on Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), ensure that at end-of-life you sepa- rate this product from other waste and scrap and deliver to the WEEE collection system in your country for recy- cling.

This device is NOT intended nor approved for connec- tion to the PSTN. It is intended only for connection to customer premise equipment.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It occurs when electronic printed circuit cards are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures. Do the fol- lowing to prevent ESD:

•Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing and replacing cards.

•Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the clip to an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to safely chan- nel unwanted ESD voltages to ground.

•To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must operate effectively. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.
