Safety and Precautions 

Environmental 

The temperature and humidity ranges shown in the 
specifications for this product must not be exceeded.  

This equipment must not be installed in an area that is 
subject to a corrosive atmosphere, excessive moisture 
or may allow water or other liquids to come into 
contact with the unit or its external connections.  

In the close proximity of some radio frequency 
transmitters, the signal to noise ratio of this product 
may be reduced. If this occurs, re-location of the 
equipment or the signal cables is recommended. 

ESD 

This product contains static-sensitive devices. Observe 
ESD precautions when working on the equipment with 
the cover removed. 

EMC 

EMC compliance is dependent on this unit being wired 
in accordance with these installation instructions. 

Electrical Safety 

 

!

!

 

 

 

Ensure power supply cabling is 
adequately rated. 

Always route power supply cabling away 
from amplifier input cabling in the 
equipment rack to reduce the risk of noise 
pick-up. 

 

 

!

!

 

 

 

Always replace blown fuses with the 
correct type and rating. 

Lithium Battery 

 

!

!

 

 

 

This product contains a lithium battery.  

Danger of explosion if battery is 
incorrectly replaced.  

Replace only with the same or equivalent 
type.  

Dispose of battery carefully to avoid 
environmental damage.  

Do not dispose of battery in a fire. 

 

 

 

 

Unpacking and Handling 

The equipment should be unpacked and inspected 
immediately on receipt. If damage has occurred please  

It is advisable to retain the original equipment packing 
in the event that the equipment ever needs returning 
for service. 

Ensure that the name and address of the Authorised 
Distributor from whom you purchased the unit is 
recorded on the “Service and Warranty” page of this 
manual for future reference.  

Packing for Return for Repair 

!

!

 

All electronics assemblies must be 
properly packed in ESD protective 
packing for transport, to prevent physical 
and ESD damage.  

 

!

!

 

The filler material used for packing for 
return for repair must be antistatic or 
static dissipative, as this may come into 
contact with exposed connectors, wiring, 
or PCB assemblies. The use of non-
conductive filler material may cause 
damage to the electronic assemblies 
reducing their operational life, or even 
destroying them. 

 

Advice on packing the product for return can be 
provided by ASL.
