t Do not expose the DVR to moisture. Water is the arch-
enemy of electrical components and also poses a high risk
of electric shock.
t Avoid dusty locations.
Dust has a tendency to build up
inside the DVR case, leading to a high risk of failure or
even fi re.
t Only install the DVR in a well ventilated space.
Like
all electronics, the circuitry and hard drive in the DVR
produce heat, and this heat needs a way out.
t Do not open the DVR case except to install/swap the
hard drive inside. There are no user serviceable parts
inside.
t Never open the case whilst the DVR is plugged in , and
never turn the DVR on whilst the case is open.
t Use only the supplied power adapter. Other adapters
may cause damage to the DVR or cause a fi re.
t Do not cut or modify any cable for any reason.
Doing
so will void your warranty, as well as pose a great risk of
fi re or electrical shock.
t Do not expose the DVR to sudden bumps or shocks
(for
example, being dropped). The DVR is as robust as possible,
but many of the internal components are quite fragile.
t Remember that the DVR is, in all likelihood, going to be
left on
24 hours a day, 7 days a week
. Keep this in mind
when choosing a location for installation.
