In addition to the careful attention devoted to quality standards in the manufacture of
your Toshiba DOCSIS Cable Modem, safety is a major factor in the design of every
product. However, safety is your responsibility, too.
This section lists important information that will help assure your enjoyment and proper use of the Cable
Modem and accessory equipment. Please read them carefully before operating and using your modem.
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 products and in the operating
instructions.
Check Power Sources - Operate this product only from the type of power source
indicated on the product's marking label. 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. They may result in a shock or fire hazard. 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 they exit from the product.
Check Ventilation - Slots and openings in the enclosure are provided for ventilation to
ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating. Do not
block or cover these openings. Never block these openings by placing the product on
a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Never place this product near or over a
radiator or heat register, or any other heat source (including amplifiers). Do not place
this product 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.
Use the Recommended AC Adapter - You must use the Adaptor that comes with
your Toshiba Cable Modem.
