Screws with Torx head are not for service and shall not be unscrewed.
Always store the G500 in an environment compatible with operating conditions.
Recommended environmental conditions for storage are:
• Temperature:  40°C to +85°C
• Relative humidity: 5% to 95%, non-condensing
Exposure to excessive temperature or other extreme environmental conditions might
cause damage and/or unreliable operation.
To avoid deterioration and early failure of electrolytic capacitors, power up units that are
stored in a de-energized state once every 12 months, for one hour continuously.
