To the extend permissible by applicable law, failure to follow these guidelines can result in damage to
your NETGEAR product, which might not be covered by NETGEAR's warranty.
• Observe and follow service markings:
- Do not service any product except as explained in your system documentation.
- Opening or removing covers that are marked with the triangular symbol with a lightning bolt can
expose you to electrical shock. We recommend that only a trained technician services components
inside these compartments.
• If any of the following conditions occur, unplug the product from the electrical outlet and replace the part
or contact your trained service provider:
- The power cable, extension cable, or plug is damaged.
- An object fell into the product.
- The product was exposed to water.
- The product was dropped or damaged.
- The product does not operate correctly when you follow the operating instructions.
• Keep your system away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling vents.
• Do not spill food or liquids on your system components, and never operate the product in a wet
environment. If the system gets wet, see the appropriate section in your troubleshooting guide, or contact
your trained service provider.
• Do not push any objects into the openings of your system. Doing so can cause fire or electric shock by
shorting out interior components.
• Use the product only with approved equipment.
• Allow the product to cool before removing covers or touching internal components.
• Operate the product only from the type of external power source indicated on the electrical ratings label.
If you are not sure of the type of power source required, consult your service provider or local power
company.
• To avoid damaging your system, be sure that the voltage selection switch (if provided) on the power
supply is set to match the power at your location:
- 115V, 60 Hz in most of North and South America and some Far Eastern countries such as South
Korea and Taiwan
- 100V, 50 Hz in eastern Japan and 100V, 60 Hz in western Japan
- 230V, 50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East
• Be sure that attached devices are electrically rated to operate with the power available in your location.
• Use only approved power cables. If you were not provided with a power cable for your system or for
any AC-powered option intended for your system, purchase a power cable approved for your country.
The power cable must be rated for the product and for the voltage and current marked on the product
electrical ratings label. The voltage and current rating of the cable must be greater than the ratings
marked on the product.
