•Do not leave the unit in a location near a heat source such as a radiator or airduct, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or shock.
•Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up. Do not place the unit on a surface (a rug, a blanket, etc.) or near materials (a curtain).
•Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.
•Do not handle the unit with wet hands.
•Do not place the unit anywhere near water.
•Properly shielded and grounded cables and connectors must be used for connection to the wireless LAN router/access point in order to comply with the limit for EMC regulations.
