SAFETY ADVISES

SAFETY RULES

DEVICE IN CLASS I
Always connect to a grounded socket.

To guarantee continuous protection for operator safety, only use

the mains adapter supplied with the device.

To guarantee continuous protection for operator safety, make su-

re that the mains plug is always connected to the power source.
WARNING: for power supply connection use an easily accessi-
ble outlet located near the device.
Never remove the mains plug for permanent connection.
Connect the LAN port to an internal LAN circuit only. It is abso-
lutely forbidden to connect the system to an outdoor telecommu-
nication line.
Connect the cable of the telephone interface to the device con-
nector and then to the outdoor telecommunication line to avoid
accidental contacts with live parts of the TNV circuits.

WARNING: never install the system during a lightning storm.

WARNING: when installing the device on the wall, do not fix it so

that it can be removed in an emergency.
The change from cold to hot environments can cause the
formation of condensate inside the device. To avoid
malfunctioning, wait at least 1 hour before connecting the device
to the supply mains.

In case of fire, absolutely avoid using water to extinguish it.

WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

The power supply used by this device involves lethal voltage
levels.
Do not access internal parts of the device (and/or of the power
supply unit).
If objects or liquids penetrate inside the device, immediately
disconnect the power supply cable. Before using the device
again, have it checked by specialized staff.

Refer to qualified staff for service.

In case of intervention, always check that the power supply has

been completely and successfully disconnected.
