Appendix

6.1

Bandwith optimisation

To significantly improve the transmission capacity of the network, we recom-
mend that you comply with the following "connection rules":

• 

Plug the device directly into a wall socket. Avoid extension strips. 

• 

Plug the devices into different outlets and avoid using the same extension 

strip.

6.2

Disposal of old devices

The icon with crossed-out wastebasket on the device means that this adapter 
is an electrical or electronic device that falls within the scope of application of 
the German Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act. Since 24 March 2006, 
these types of devices may no longer be disposed of with household waste. 
Rather, in Germany, they can be given to a municipal collection point free of 
charge. Contact your municipal government to find out the address and hours 
of the nearest collection point.
