Extension Cables - NAO EVOLUTION Safety Manual

GENERAL
• IMPORTANT:
I have an autonomous life. I will move about of my own accord.
• Do not insert any foreign object:
› in or under my casing (including the loudspeakers)
› in the USB or Ethernet port.
• In general, take care not to make me fall.
• Do not exert strong forces on me. Pushing against my motors
may damage them.
• Do not block my sensors. See User Manual for their location.
• Some of my sensors are tactile. Do not apply force on them.
• Do not pull me by the head, the arms, or the legs; otherwise you
might damage my joints.
• Never cover the air vent at the back of my head. In particular
do not put anything on my head, including any kind of hat, cap,
or wig as they may increase my operating temperature that
can lead to an unexpected shutdown or damage me.
• Do not put any glasses (fake or not), eye patch, on my head,
or any kind of clothing accessory whatsoever on me.
I am not a doll. If you try to dress me up, my sensors
and articulations may not operate properly.
• CAUTION: My head may become very warm during normal
operation. Before touching it, especially when changing the
USB flash disk after using me, make sure you wait 15 to 20
minutes so that the head has cooled down.
POWERING
• Please read the Battery Charger User Manual that came
with the Battery Charger. It contains important installation
and safety instructions.
CAUTION: The Battery Charger may become hot.
•
This is normal.To avoid discomfort, take care when handling it
during or immediately after operating me.
• Do not use me with cables plugged in, as they could dis-
connect or I could fall over. It is recommended to disconnect
the charger from the battery before turning me ON, and only
use the Ethernet cable to configure wifi connection.
• Do not use the Battery Charger if room temperature is above
40°C (104°F).
• For the maximum Battery lifespan, fully charge the Battery
at least once every 3 months.
• Protect the Battery Charger terminals from dirt or other
foreign objects.
CAUTION: To Avoid Electric Shock:
•
› Do not plug my power cables into an electrical outlet
if the power cable is damaged.
› During a storm, unplug the Battery Charger from the Socket
to protect it from damage.
› Never use an AC adapter that shows signs of damage
or excessive wear.
• CAUTION: Risk of Fire or Electric Shock:
› Use only the Softbank Robotics provided AC power cable
with
the AC adapter. Use of any other power cable may damage
the robot or AC adapter or affect your safety.
› Use only the battery provided with the robot. Use of any
other type of battery may cause an explosion. Please follow
your local regulation to dispose of the battery.
• There is no switch on the Battery Charger; to disconnect it,
pull the plug. Keep the plug easily accessible at all times
to allow easy disconnection.
• Unplug the power adapter if:
› The adapter is exposed to rain, liquid,
or excessive moisture.
› The adapter case has become damaged.
› You suspect the adapter needs service or repair.
› You want to clean the adapter.

EXTENSION CABLES

• CAUTION: To Avoid Electric Shock:
› When using a power extension cable or a multiple socket
adapter, make sure it has sufficient current rating. You may
use either one or the other to extend
from the wall socket, but no more than one extension
device at a time.
› If you use a multiple socket adapter, take care when
plugging the power cable, as some types allow incorrect
plugging which could result in permanent damage to me,
as well as provoke electric shock and/or fire.
› Do not plug the robot power cables into an electrical outlet
if the power cable is damaged.
›
Do not connect or disconnect the power adapter with wet
hands.
› If you use an extension cable, make sure that the total
ampere rating of the products plugged in to the extension
power cable does not exceed the ampere rating of the
extension cable.
› If you need an extension cable or power board, ensure
the extension cable or power board is connected to a wall
power outlet and not to another extension cable or power
board.
