Important Rules for Safe Operation
In addition to the careful attention devoted to quality standards in the manufacture of
your Toshiba PCX2600, safety is a major factor in the design of every product. However,
safety is your responsibility, as well.
This section lists important information that will help assure your enjoyment and proper use of the
PCX2600 and accessory equipment. Please read it carefully before operating and using your PCX2600.
<Installation>
Read and Follow Instructions - You should read all the safety and operating instructions before
operating the modem. Follow all operating instructions.
Retain Instructions - You should save all the safety and operating instructions, for your future
reference.
Heed Warnings - Comply with all warnings on the PCX2600 and in the operating instructions.
Use the Recommended AC Adapter - You must use the Adapter that comes with your Toshiba
PCX2600.
Check Power Sources - The AC adapter for your Toshiba PCX2600 must be used with an AC120V
60Hz supply outlet. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your dealer
or local power company.
Be Careful of Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords, as this can result in a risk
of fire or electric shock. Overloaded AC outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, damaged or
cracked wire insulation, and broken plugs are dangerous. Periodically examine the cord, and, if its
appearance indicates damage or deteriorated insulation, have it replaced by your service technician.
Protect Power Cords - Route power supply cords so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched
by items placed upon or against them. Pay particular attention to cords where they are attached to
plugs and convenience receptacles, and examine the point where the power cord attaches to the
PCX2600.
Check Ventilation - Slots and openings in the enclosure are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable
operation of the PCX2600 and to protect it from overheating. Do not block or cover these openings.
Never block these openings by placing the PCX2600 on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Never
place the PCX2600 near or over a radiator or heat register, or any other heat source (including
amplifiers). Do not place the PCX2600 in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or equipment rack,
unless you provide proper ventilation.
Do Not Use Accessories - Do not use attachments, unless they are recommended by Toshiba, as they
may cause electrical or fire hazards.
Do Not Use Near Water - Do not use the PCX2600 near water - for example, near a bath tub, sink or
laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.
Do Not Place Near High Temperature Source - Do not use the PCX2600 near a source of heat such
as a Kitchen range, a fireplace or a radiator.
