guidelines:
u
Operate the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl only indoors within a temperature range of
+5 to +40 °C. Do not position the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl near sources of heat. Do
not cover the ventilation slots. High temperatures can damage the device.
u
A mains socket for 220/230 V~ and a connection socket for the splitter or LAN must
be available in the place where you set up the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl.
u
Do not position the device in the immediate vicinity of stereo equipment, TV sets or
microwave ovens. This may cause interference.
u
Position the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl so that it is as near to the centre of your wire-
less network as possible. The general rule is: the higher you place the antennae, the
better the performance. Make sure that the place where you position the Gigaset
SE555 WLAN dsl offers optimum reception throughout the house or office.
u
Position the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl on a non-slip surface. The router feet do not
normally leave any traces on the surface they are on. However, some furniture sur-
faces may contain substances that attack and soften the router's rubber feet. The
feet may well mark the furniture surface in this case.
u
Position the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl so that it cannot fall down and damage the
antenna.
