Safety Precautions
This device is intended for connection to the AC power line. Before using this product, please
read the following precautions:
• Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
• Unplug the device from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a dry cloth for cleaning. Do
not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
• Do not put this product near water.
• Do not put this product near a radiator or heat source.
• Do not use an extension cord between the device and the AC power source.
• Only a qualified technician should service this product. Opening or removing covers
may result in exposure to dangerous voltage points or other risks.
• Unplug the device from the wall outlet and refer the product to qualified service
personnel for the following conditions:
• If liquid has been spilled into the product
• If the product has been exposed to rain or water
• If the product does not operate normally when the operating instructions are followed
• If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance
Warning: This product is equipped with a socket: recommendations also apply to
the device to be connected through this outlet (see section Erreur ! Source
du renvoi introuvable.)
• There is an identification label under the appliance or on the rear panel.
Read it, it gives you all the information on the mains voltage, current and frequency for
which your appliance was designed.
• Never open the appliance! There is a risk of electric shock. Any work on the appliance
must be carried out by a qualified person.
• Avoid violent mechanical shocks: do not use the appliance if it is damaged.
• Make sure that the appliance is out of reach of children or pets.
• Never connect your appliance to a socket that has come loose, or is damaged or
defective - you may receive an electric shock.
• Never touch the appliance with damp or wet hands. You may get an electric shock.
• Install the appliance in a dry, well aired place. Protect them from moisture and dust.
• Install the appliance indoors out of the sun and rain; avoid extremes of temperature.
Use the appliance in an environment where the following conditions apply:
ambient temperature: between 0 °C [32°F] and 40 °C [104°F],
ambient humidity: between 20% and 90%.
• Keep the appliance away, from sources of heat such as radiators or gas/electric
heaters. Do not place incandescent objects such as candles on the appliance.
• Do not place any object on the appliance (this would interfere with the ventilation): the
vent slots in the casing are there to protect your appliance from overheating. Do not
place any object such as a piece of fabric or paper on these slots.
• To avoid short-circuits (with a risk of fire or electric shock), place your appliance away
from the damp. If any liquid comes into contact with your appliance (drops, splashes), it
will damage it and may cause irremediable breakdown. If a liquid does enter the
appliance, unplug it immediately from the mains and contact your retailer electrician.
• Make sure that the device is properly inserted into the mains.
• Never place objects, walk, or pass a wheeled appliance on the device. You may
damage it and cause a risk of fire or electric shock.
F@st Plug 502W PLC Wireless Router

• If there is any suspicious noise coming from the mains socket or mains lead, unplug the
appliance from the mains socket with all necessary precautions - you may get an
electric shock. Contact your retailer.
• If there is a thunderstorm, we advise you to unplug.
• To clean the appliance, the mains unit or adapter first unplug it from the mains. Clean
the appliance only with a soft dry cloth. Never use detergents or chemical additives.
Specific recommendations to use the socket of the device
When you plug or unplug the mains lead, always hold it by the plug. A damaged lead is a
potential source of fire or electric shock. Never pull by the lead to unplug the appliance from the
mains socket.
You must connect the mains lead to the appliance before plugging it in to the mains socket.
Make sure the lead is properly plugged in to the socket on the appliance. If it is not properly
plugged in, there is a risk of fire or electric shock on touching the appliance.
Never place objects on the mains lead, never pull on it and never bend it.
This could cause a risk of fire or electric discharge. Always make sure the appliance is not
standing on the mains lead or any other cable.
Environment
Preservation of the environment is an essential concern of the manufacturer. The desire of the
manufacturer is to operate systems observing the environment and consequently it has decided
to integrate environmental performances in the life cycle of its products, from manufacturing to
commissioning, use and elimination.
Meaning of logos present on the product or its packaging
The crossed-out dustbin sign stuck on the product or its accessories means that at
the end of its life, the product is subject to selective collection and must not be
thrown away in unsorted household waste.
The looped arrow sign means that the packaging may be recycled and must not be
disposed of with household waste.
The logo with three arrows shown on the plastic parts means that they may be
recycled and that they must not be disposed of with household waste.
Product recycling and disposal
To facilitate recycling, please respect the sorting rules set up locally for this kind of waste.
If your product contains batteries, they must be disposed of at appropriate collection points.
European regulations ask you to dispose of products belonging to the family of electrical and
electronic equipments ( ) selectively:
• At the collection points made available to you locally (drop-off centre, selective
collection, etc.),
• At sales points in the event of the purchase of similar equipment.

In this way you can participate in the re-use and upgrading of Electrical and Electronic
Equipment Waste, which can have an effect on the environment and human health.
European Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
In the context of sustainable development, the reduction of wastes to be eliminated by
reusing, recycling, composting and energy recovery is strongly advised.
In order to comply with this directive which is applicable to EEEs sold after 13/08/2005, your
recorder will be taken back free of charge and recycled by the distributor of the EEE within
the limits of the quantity and types of equipment bought from them. These appliances which
contain substances potentially dangerous to human health and the environment will be
recycled.
Directive on the Restriction of use of certain hazardous substances in electronic
equipment (ROHS)
Your recorder along with the batteries supplied comply with the directive relating to the RoHS
– dangerous materials such as lead, mercury or cadmium are not used. This avoids
environmental hazards and any risks to the health of personnel at the recycling centres. The
batteries of the remote control can be removed simply.
Note: When the batteries of the remote control are worn out, please dispose of them at a
collection point and not with household waste.
CE Marking
The marking certifies that the product complies with the essential requirements of the
Directive1999/5/EC concerning radio equipment and telecommunication equipment, and of
Directives 2006/95/EC concerning safety, 2004/108/EC concerning electromagnetic

Hardware Installation
Operation Range
The operation range of the PLC wireless router depends on the actual environment. The
path and effect of signal transmission may vary with the deployment in a house or an office.
But for the practical application, coverage of PLC signal may vary due to the number of PLC
devices connected to the power line network. For wireless transmission, straight
transmission distance in the open air for some devices can reach 300 meters and indoor
transmission distance can reach 100 meters.
Improving the Transmission Performance of Network
In order to improve the transmission performance of network, it is recommended that you
insert the power plug of the device into the wall socket directly.
Recommended use of a multiple plug adapter, Place the PLC taken first on the multiple plug
adapter.
