Important Information
Please read this manual carefully before setting up and using the SMART Board
interactive
whiteboard. With proper care, your interactive whiteboard should provide years of trouble-
free service.
NOTE
: The information provided in this section applies to the SMART Board interactive
whiteboard (500 series). If you have a
Rear Projection
SMART Board
unit or a SMART
Board
for Plasma Displays
interactive overlay, refer to the installation manual that came
with your model for warnings, precautions and maintenance instructions.
Other Precautions
For operating safety and to avoid damage to the unit, read carefully and observe the
following instructions.
1
If you decide to move a SMART Board interactive whiteboard that has been mounted on a
Floor Stand, do so with care. Quick stops, excessive force and uneven surfaces may
cause the interactive whiteboard to overturn.
2
If you are transporting the interactive whiteboard over a distance, we strongly urge you to
completely repackage it using the original packaging. If the original packaging is no longer
available, pack all components with as much padding as reasonably possible to ensure
that they are not exposed to excessive vibration or shock.
3
Avoid setting up and using the interactive whiteboard in an area with excessive levels
of dust, humidity and cigarette smoke.
4
Avoid leaving cables on the floor where they can be tripped over. If you must run a
cable over the floor, lay the cable in a flat, straight line and secure it to the floor with
tape or a cable management strip in a contrasting color. Handle cables carefully and
avoid excessive bending.
5
If replacement parts are required, ensure the service technician has used replacement
parts specified by SMART Technologies Inc. or parts with the same characteristics as
the original.
WARNING
If you use a projector with your SMART Board interactive whiteboard, do not view directly or
stare into the beam of light created by the projector. Be especially careful to instruct children not
to look in the direction of, or stare at, the beam of light created by the projector.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or moisture.
