7 Observe all precautions and warnings attached to the equipment.
8 If you don't intend on using the equipment for a long time, disconnect it from the power outlet to prevent being damaged by transient over-voltage.
9 Keep all liquids away from the equipment to minimize the risk of accidental spillage. Liquid spilled on to the power supply or on other hardware
