2.0 BELANGRIJKE VEILIGHEIDSINSTRUCTIES
Lees deze handleiding zorgvuldig door om het beste uit uw product te halen. Bewaar het op een veilige plek
voor raadpleging in de toekomst.
Haal nooit het omhulsel van de eenheid af, dit om de kans op een elektrische schok te verminderen. Maak
het apparaat nooit open: er bevinden zich geen door de gebruiker in te stellen onderdelen in het apparaat.
Laat service en onderhoud over aan een gekwalificeerde technicus.
2.1 Elektriciteit en aansluiting
Deze eenheid is niet van de wisselstroom voedingsbron gescheiden wanneer de stekker nog in het
stopcontact zit. Wanneer de eenheid uitstaat, staat deze nog in de stand-by modus. In de stand-by modus
vergt de eenheid minder stroom dan in de normale "aan" modus.
Wanneer u de eenheid voor langere tijd niet gebruikt, zorg er dan voor dat de stekker van het
wisselstroomsnoer uit het stopcontact is getrokken.
Het wisselstroom stopcontact moet dichtbij de eenheid geïnstalleerd worden en makkelijk toegankelijk zijn.
Als de eenheid duidelijk beschadigd is moet u deze nooit op het lichtnet aansluiten of bedienen.
2.2 Water en vocht
Om het risiko op brand en persoonlijk letsel te beperken is het gebruik van dit apparaat buiten en/of
blootstelling aan regen, water of overdadige hoeveelheden vocht uitdrukkelijk verboden.
Het apparaat mag niet worden blootgesteld aan druppels of bespatting en er mogen geen objecten die
gevuld zijn met vloeistoffen, zoals vazen, op het apparaat geplaatst worden.
2.3 Algemeen onderhoud
Forceer schakelaars of externe aansluitingen nooit.
Bij verplaatsing van de eenheid, de seriële poortaansluitingen eerst loskoppelen, dan de voedingskabel en
als laatste de snoeren naar andere apparaten.
Probeer de eenheid nooit met chemische oplosmiddelen of schoonmaakmiddelen in een spuitbus schoon te
maken, omdat dit de eenheid kan beschadigen. Gebruik een schone droge doek.
2.4 Plaatsing
Deze eenheid moet geïnstalleerd worden op een koele droge plaats, uit de buurt van bronnen van extreme
hitte, vibraties, stof, vocht en kou.
2.5 Ventilatie
De sleuven en openingen aan de zijkant van de eenheid zijn voor ventilatie. Zorg er voor dat de eenheid op
een goed geventileerde plek geïnstalleerd wordt zodat deze betrouwbaar werkt.
2.6 Intellectueel eigendom
Sommige IC chips in dit product bevatten vertrouwelijke informatie en/of fabrieksgeheimen. U mag daarom
de inhoud hiervan niet kopiëren, wijzigen, aanpassen, vertalen, verspreiden, nabouwen, of decompileren
