D-Link DVG-5112S User Manual page 55

Please adhere to the following safety guidelines to help ensure your own personal safety and protect your
system from potential damage. Any acts taken that are inconsistent with ordinary use of the product, including
improper testing, etc., and those not expressly approved by D-Link may result in the loss of product warranty.
Unless expressly approved by an authorized representative of D-Link in writing, you may not and may not
permit others to:
• Disassemble or reverse engineer the device or attempt to derive source code (underlying ideas,
algorithms, or structure) from the device or from any other information provided by
D-Link, except to the extent that this restriction is expressly prohibited by local law.
• Modify or alter the device.
• Remove from the device any product identification or other notices, including copyright notices and
patent markings, if any.
To reduce the risk of bodily injury, electrical shock, fire, and damage to the device and other equipment,
observe the following precautions:
Power Sources
• Observe and follow service markings.
• Do not push any objects into the openings of your device unless consistent with the authorized
operation of the device. Doing so can cause a fire or an electrical shock by shorting out interior
components.
• The powering of this device must adhere to the power specifications indicated for this product.
• Do not overload wall outlets and/or extension cords as this will increase the risk of fire or electrical
shock.
• Do not rest anything on the power cord or on the device (unless the device is made and expressly
approved as suitable for stacking).
• Position system cables and power cables carefully; route cables so that they cannot be stepped on
or tripped over. Be sure that nothing rests on any cables.
• Operate the device only from the type of external power source indicated on the electrical ratings
label.
• To help avoid damaging your device, be sure the voltage selection switch (if provided) on the power
supply is set to match the power available at your location.
• Also be sure that attached devices are electrically rated to operate with the power available in your
location.
• Use only approved power cable(s). If you have not been provided a power cable for your device or
for any AC-powered option intended for your device, purchase a power cable that is approved for
use in your country and is suitable for use with your device. The power cable must be rated for the
device and for the voltage and current marked on the device's electrical ratings label. The voltage
and current rating of the cable should be greater than the ratings marked on the device.
• To help prevent an electrical shock, plug the device and peripheral power cables into properly
grounded electrical outlets. These cables are equipped with three-prong plugs to help ensure proper
grounding. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from a cable. If you must use
an extension cable, use a 3-wire cable with properly grounded plugs.
• Observe extension cable and power strip ratings. Ensure that the total ampere rating of all products
plugged into the extension cable or power strip does not exceed 80 percent of the ampere ratings
limit for the extension cable or power strip.
• To help protect your device from sudden, transient increases and decreases in electrical power, use
a surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
• Do not modify power cables or plugs. Consult a licensed electrician or your power company for site
modifications. Always follow your local/national wiring rules.
