Safety instructions

Location Guidelines

For optimal performance, use DCU 220 where the recommended temperature is

between 0 °C (32 °F) and 55 °C (131 °F). (Actual operating temperature depends on
product specifications.)
Avoid placing DCU 220 in a location subject to high humidity, extreme temperatures,

mechanical vibration, direct sunlight, or heavy dust. Using DCU 220 in extreme
environments for long periods can result in product deterioration and a shortened
product life.
Operating in an environment with metallic dust is not allowed.

Place DCU 220 on a flat and steady surface. Do not stand DCU 220 on its side or store

it in an upside-down position. A strong impact by dropping or hitting may damage
DCU 220.
Do not cover or block any ventilation openings on DCU 220. For example, do not place

DCU 220 on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Otherwise, overheating may
occur that results in damage to DCU 220.
As DCU 220 can become very hot during operation, keep it away from objects that are

vulnerable to heat.
Keep DCU 220 at least 13 cm (5 inches) away from electrical appliances that can

generate a strong magnetic field such as a TV, refrigerator, motor, or a large audio
speaker.
Avoid moving DCU 220 abruptly from a cold to a warm place. A temperature difference

of more than 10 °C (18 °F) may cause condensation inside the unit, which may
damage the storage media.
