Safety Instructions
Use the following safety guidelines to help protect your APR from potential damage
and to help ensure your own personal safety:
•
Do not attempt to service the APR yourself. Always follow installation
instructions closely.
•
Be sure that nothing rests on your AC adapter’s power cable and that the cable is
not located where it can be tripped over or stepped on.
•
Place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desk top or on the floor,
when powering the APR. Do not cover the AC adapter with papers or other items
that will reduce cooling. Do not use the AC adapter inside a carrying case.
•
Do not use your APR in a wet environment, for example, near a bathtub, sink, or
swimming pool or in a wet basement.
•
Do not push objects into air vents or openings of your APR. Doing so can cause
fire or electric shock by shorting out interior components.
•
Use only the AC adapter that is approved for use with this APR as indicated in
this document. Use of another type of AC adapter may risk fire or explosion.
•
Before you connect the APR to a power source, ensure that the voltage rating of
the AC adapter matches that of the available power source:
— 115 volts (V)/60 hertz (Hz) in most of North and South America and some Far
Eastern countries such as South Korea and Taiwan
