Safety Tips

Safe Use of Your Appliance

To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your iPAQ
Home Internet Appliance:
➜
Never open the Appliance enclosure. There are no user-
serviceable components or options inside.
➜
Do not disable the 3-prong power cord. The grounding pin
on the 3-prong plug is an important safety feature.
Removing the grounding pin increases the risk of
equipment damage. If you cannot fit the plug into your
electrical outlet, contact an electrician to install a
grounded outlet. See Caring for Your iPAQ Home Internet
Appliance for additional information on safely using your
Appliance.
➜
Plug the power cord into an unswitched (not turned on and
off by a wall switch) grounded (earthed) electrical outlet
that is easily accessible at all times.
➜
When connecting a power cord to a grounded electrical
outlet, ensure that nothing rests on the power cord.
➜
Disconnect power from the Appliance by unplugging the
power cord from either the electrical outlet or the
Appliance.
When using this device, basic safety precautions should
always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,
and injury to persons, including the following:
➜
Do not use the Appliance near water; for example, near a
bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near a swimming pool.
➜
Avoid using the Appliance during an electrical storm.
There may be a remote risk of electrical shock from
lightning.
➜
