4.1 Pre-Installation Safety Instructions

Read all of these instructions and save them for future reference.

General Safety Instructions

Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the device.

Do not place the device on any unstable surface (cart, stand, table, etc.). If the device falls, serious damage will result.

Do not use the device near water.

Do not place the device near, or over, radiators or heat registers.

The device cabinet is provided with slots and openings to allow for adequate ventilation. To ensure reliable operation, and to protect against overheating, these openings must never be blocked or covered.

The device should never be placed on a soft surface (bed, sofa, rug, etc.) as this will block its ventilation openings. Likewise, the device should not be placed in a built in enclosure unless adequate ventilation has been provided.

Never spill liquid of any kind on the device.

Unplug the device from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

The device should be operated from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power available, consult your dealer or local power company.

The device is designed for IT power distribution systems with up to 230V phase-to-phase voltage.

To prevent damage to your installation it is important that all devices are properly grounded.

The device is equipped with a 3-wire grounding type plug. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician. Do not attempt to defeat the purpose of the grounding-type plug. Always follow your local/national wiring codes.

Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord or cables. Route the power cord and cables so that they cannot be stepped on or tripped over.

If an extension cord is used with this device make sure that the total of the ampere ratings of all products used on this cord does not exceed the extension cord ampere rating. Make sure that the total of all products plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed 15 amperes.

To protect against circuit overloading, you should plug your KVM switch and connected computers into a Tripp Lite SmartPro® or SmartOnline™ UPS System.

Position system cables and power cables carefully, making sure that nothing rests on any cables.

Never push objects of any kind into or through cabinet slots. They may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts resulting in a risk of fire or electrical shock.

Do not attempt to service the device yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
