The product was dropped or damaged.

-

The product does not operate correctly when you follow the operating
instructions.

Keep your system away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling
vents.

Do not spill food or liquids on your system components, and never operate the
product in a wet environment. If the system gets wet, see the appropriate section in
your troubleshooting guide, or contact your trained service provider.

Do not push any objects into the openings of your system. Doing so can cause fire
or electric shock by shorting out interior components.

Use the product only with approved equipment.

If applicable to your device, allow the product to cool before removing covers or
touching internal components.

Operate the product only from the type of external power source indicated on the
electrical ratings label. If you are not sure of the type of power source required,
consult your service provider or local power company.

To avoid damaging your system, if your device uses a power supply with a voltage
selector, be sure that the selector is set to match the power at your location:

-

115V, 60 Hz in most of North and South America and some Far Eastern countries
such as South Korea and Taiwan

-

100V, 50 Hz in eastern Japan and 100V, 60 Hz in western Japan

-

230V, 50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East

Be sure that attached devices are electrically rated to operate with the power available
in your location.

Depending on your device, use only a supplied power adapter or approved power
cable:
If your device uses a power adapter:

-

If you were not provided with a power adapter, contact your local NETGEAR
reseller.

-

The power adapter must be rated for the product and for the voltage and current
marked on the product electrical ratings label.

If your device uses a power cable:

-

If you were not provided with a power cable for your system or for any
AC-powered option intended for your system, purchase a power cable approved
for your country.
