Safety instructions
Please read this chapter carefully and observe all listed notes. This will
ensure reliable operation and long life expectancy of your product.
Keep these instructions with your product at all times. The proper set
up, use and care can help extend the life of your product. In the event
that you transfer ownership of this product, please provide these
instructions to the new owner.
Safety and installation
Never allow children to use electronic devices unsupervised.
Children may not always correctly identify potential hazards.
Hard disks are extremely fragile. Never drop or shake the hard
drive - this could irreversibly damage the data on the hard disk.
Be especially careful when transporting the hard disk. We
provide no guarantee for this type of damage.
The hard drive can become warm after prolonged use.
Never open the hard disk casing. If you do so, the hard disk will
no longer be covered by the guarantee.
The hard disk is not designed for use in commercial
applications/situations.
After transportation, wait until the equipment is at room
temperature before turning it on. If there is a large difference in
temperature or humidity, damp can build up through
condensation and cause an electrical short circuit.
Keep your hard disk and all connected equipment away from
damp and avoid dust, heat and direct sunlight in order to
prevent operational problems.
In order to avoid damage from a fall, place the hard disk on a
stable and level surface which does not vibrate.
For additional safety, we recommend using power connection
through a power surge protection unit in order to protect your
equipment from power surges and lightning strikes.
The voltages and interfaces used in the equipment are in line
with the low voltage protection guidelines set out in EN60950.
Connections to other equipment may only be made using similar
interfaces with low voltage protection in accordance with EN
60950.

Please use our Service Center if you have any technical problems
with your hard disk. If repairs are needed, please use exclusively
our authorised service partners.
In the first hours of operation, new devices may emit a typical,
unavoidable but completely harmless smell, which will decline
increasingly in the course of time.
We recommend that you ventilate the room regularly, in order to
counteract the formation of the smell.
Cabling
Route the cable so that no one can step on it or stumble over it.
To avoid damage to the cable do not place any objects or
furniture on it.
Electromagnetic compatibility/ Conformity
This device fulfils the requirements of electromagnetic compatibility
and electrical safety of the following:
EN 55022
EN 55024
EN 61000-3-2
EN 61000-3-3
EN 60950
Make sure that it is located at least one meter away from
sources of high frequency and magnetic disturbance (TVs,
speakers, mobile telephones, etc.) in order to avoid operational
problems and data loss.

FCC Compliance Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment. Shielded interface cables, if any, must be used in order
to comply with the emission limits.
