CAUTION
This symbol indicates the possibility of serious or fatal injury if the
XG700 is not used properly.
This symbol indicates the possibility of minor or moderate personal
injury, as well as damage to the XG700 and/or to other users and

2 For Safe Use of the XG700
WARNING
not used properly.
For your safety and that of others, please follow these guidelines.
CategoryWarning
This symbol indicates the possibility of serious or fatal injury if the XG700 is
Danger of
electric shock
or fire
Danger of
breakage and
injury
Never attempt to disassemble, dismantle, upgrade, or recycle the XG700 by yourself.
Do not place objects on the XG700, as there is a risk of electric shock, fire, and/or damage.
Do not install the XG700 where it will be exposed to direct sunlight, close to a heating device, or in an environment with much dust and high humidity, as there is a risk of electric shock and fire.
For XG700 models with cooling vents, do not block off the vents as these prevent the internal parts of the
XG700 from reaching high temperature, and there is a risk of fire.
Do not wrap the running XG700 with a cloth. Doing so keeps the heat in, and may cause a fire.
Avoid getting any liquids (such as coffee) or pieces of metal (such as paper clips) into the XG700, as there is
a risk of electric shock and fire. To avoid foreign objects getting into the XG700, never place objects on it.
Do not put your fingers into the LAN jack, as there is a risk of electric shock.
Do not use the XG700 with any voltage other than that specified on the device, as there is a risk of electric
shock and fire.
Should the XG700 start giving off heat, smoke, and/or a strange smell, immediately disconnect the power
plug from the power outlet. To make this easy, the XG700 should be located close to the power outlet (wall
socket or power strip), and the power outlet must be readily accessible.
After the power is disconnected, contact the vendor's service department immediately. Continued use of
the XG700 may cause an electric shock and fire.
Note that in this case, the state of data in transmission is not guaranteed.(P.30)
If the power plug or power socket is dirty, clean it with a dry cloth. Continued use may cause a fire.(P.28)
Do not touch the power plug with wet hands, as there is a risk of electric shock.(P.28)
Insert the power plug completely into the power socket.
A partially inserted power plug may cause an electric shock, give off smoke, and/or catch fire.(P.28)
When you remove a power plug from its outlet, be sure to pull the only power plug itself. Pulling on the
power cord itself may expose the cores or break the cord, and cause electric shock or fire.(P.28)
If the XG700 is to be left unused for any significant period, remove the power plug from the outlet for safety
reasons. Failure to do so may cause a fire or damage.(P.28)
Do not damage or remodel the power cords, as this may cause electric shock or fire.
Do not place any object on, wrap any object with, pull and/or kick the power cords, as there is a risk of electric shock and fire.(P.28)
Never overload a power outlet with multiple devices.
If too many devices are connected, the power socket may overheat and cause a fire.
When you remove a power plug from an outlet, be sure to pull the power plug itself.
A power plug damaged by incorrect removal may cause an electric shock and fire.
Do not use the XG700 with a damaged power cord, a damaged power plug, and/or a loose socket.
Continued use under these conditions may cause an electric shock and fire.(P.28)
Do not bundle the power cords. Doing so increases the heat density, and may cause a fire.
Unplug the XG700 during thunder-storms. Continued use under these conditions risks lightning damage to
the XG700, and may cause a fire.(P.28)
Do not place the XG700 on its side or stack up multiple XG700s.
Ignoring this may damage the XG700 or injure the operator.
Do not install the XG700 in an unstable place (such as on a slanted surface or a place subjected to vibrations).
Doing so may cause injury or device damage.
Do not place any objects or perform any work on the XG700.
Ignoring this may damage the XG700 or injure the operator.
Never leave the plastic bags the XG700 was packed in around where children can find them, as they may
suck them into their mouths or place them over their heads in fun, with a severe risk of choking and asphyxia.
Do not dispose the XG700 with other wastes. If burnt, the XG700 can explode.

Do not place the XG700 on its side or stack up multiple XG700s. Doing so may damage the XG700.
Do not install the XG700 in an unstable place (such as on a slanted surface or a place subjected to
vibrations). Doing so may damage the XG700.
Do not place any objects or perform any work on the XG700. Doing so may damage the XG700.
Install the XG700 inside a building. Using the XG700 outside may damage it.
Do not use the XG700 in areas of extremely high temperature, low temperature, or a area where the
temperature goes up and down suddenly. Installing the XG700 in such areas may damage it.
Do not expose the XG700 to seawater. Installing the XG700 in such areas may damage it.
Do not use the XG700 in a place subjected to shock or vibrations. Using the XG700 in such a place may
damage it.
Do not use the XG700 in a place where chemicals are being sprayed or may otherwise come in contact
with it. Using the XG700 in such a place may damage it.
Do not use the XG700 near objects which generate strong magnetic fields, such as microwave ovens.
Using the XG700 in such place may damage it.
Do not use the XG700 with foreign objects (liquids and/or pieces of metal) inside it. Using the XG700 in
such a condition may damage it.
When moving the XG700, be sure to remove the power plug from the outlet first. No doing so may damage it.
Do not use the XG700 near a radio or a TV.
Doing so can interfere with the radio and TV reception.
To avoid an electric shock, do not open the cover unless you are a maintenance engineer.
When performing maintenance on the XG700, be sure to remove the power plug from the outlet first.
Only use the XG700 if the temperature inside the rack is 40°C or less. Ignoring this may damage the
XG700 (P.22).
Ensure that the rack is sufficiently ventilated and that excess heat is properly exhausted (P.22).
Check that the configuration of devices in the rack does not overload the power supply (P.22).
To ensure the stability of the rack, fix it to the wall or floor as appropriate (P.22).
Do not install the XG700 in a rack if it would make it unstable (P.22).
Check that all units installed in the rack are correctly connected to a grounded power source (P.22).
When installing and removing the XG700 from a rack, be sure to hold it by both sides. At least two people should work together.(P.23)(P.26)
When cleaning the XG700, only use a soft cloth, and wipe it gently.
4 For Safe Use of the XG700
No self maintenance
Never attempt to dismantle or modify the XG700 yourself. This is extremely dangerous since
the XG700 includes both high voltage and high temperature components.
If maintenance is required, contact the vendor's service department.
Warning label
The following warning label may be found on the rear of XG700. Do not attempt to remove
this warning label. If you cannot read the details written in the warning label because of dirt or
wear, contact the vendor's service department for a replacement label.

Safety
CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 60950, UL60950 and EN60950
Static electricity
Under certain conditions, twisted pair cables can become charged with static electricity. Connecting a statically charged twisted pair cable to a device can cause the device or its LAN
port to operate falsely or to become damaged.
Use a static removal tool to discharge twisted pair cables to ground immediately before connecting them to devices.
Note that a discharged twisted pair cable that has been left unconnected for a long time may
become statically charged again.
