Install the system in a cool place without direct sunlight and always maintain room temperature. Avoid candle light and heat-generating devices such as heater. Keep the system away from places where many people pass.

• This may cause fire.

Install the system on a plain surface with sufficient air ventilation. Do not place the system on elevated surface.

• This may cause system breakdown or serious injuries.

The power outlet must be placed on a ground, and the voltage range must be within 10% of the voltage rate. Do not use the same outlet with a hair dryer, iron, refrigerator, or any heating appliances.

• This may cause fire, heating, an electric shock.

Warning

When the system’s battery is depleted, you must change it with the same or equivalent type of battery specified by the manufacturer. Depleted batteries should be discarded according to manufacturer’s instructions.

• This may cause an explosion.

If the system’s HDD has exceeded its life span, you may not be able to recover any data stored inside the HDD. If the video on the system screen appears ‘damaged’ while playing a recording stored inside the system’s HDD, it must be replaced with a new one. Ask for an engineer’s assistance for HDD replacement from your dealer.

• Provider is not responsible for deleted data caused by user’s mishandling.

2. Installation

2.1 Checking install environment

You should pay attention to the following before you use the product.

• Do not use it outdoor.

• Do not place water or liquid near the connection part or the product.

• Do not impose excessive shock or force.

• Do not pull out the power cord unreasonably.

• Do not disassemble the product on you own.

• Do not exceed the rated input or output voltage range.

• Use the certified power cord only.

• For the product with an input ground, use a power plug with a ground pin.

CHECKING INSTALLATION ENVIRONMENT

Digital Video Recorder (hereinafter referred to “DVR”) is a high-tech security equipment that contains a high-capacity HDD and top-notch circuits. High temperature inside or outside of the product may reduce the product life, deteriorate performance (see the Figure 1 below; it explains the correlation between temperature and product life), and lead to a malfunction.

Figure 1

Please keep the following instructions for rack-mounting the DVRs to proceed with the installation.

1. The rack on which the DVR is mounted should not be sealed off.

2. And it also can allow air circulation through the vent.

3. As shown in the Figure 2, we recommend you to heap the product with other DVR s or use rack-mount devices at certain space, or install a vent system to accommodate airflow.

4. For forming a natural convection, the air intake hole should be positional at the bottom and the emission at the top.

5. We recommend you to install each of the air intake and emission holes with fan motors for sufficient airflow. (The air intake fan should be equipped with a filter to prevent possible inflow of dust and other impurities.)

6. As shown in the Figure 1, the temperature inside the rack and around the DVR should maintain between 0 and 45-C.
