Under no circumstances should the user attempt to disassemble the power supply. The

power supply has no user-replaceable parts. Inside the power supply are hazardous

voltages that can cause serious personal injury.

A defective power supply must be returned to your dealer.

Using electrical power

- If an extension cord is used with this product, make sure that the total ampere rating

of the equipment plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the extension

cord ampere rating. Also, make sure that the total rating of all products plugged into

the wall outlet does not exceed the fuse rating.

- Do not overload a power outlet, strip or receptacle by plugging in too many devices.

The overall system load must not exceed 80% of the branch circuit rating. If power

strips are used, the load should not exceed 80% of the power strip's input rating.

WIRELESS ADAPTER REGULATORY INFORMATION

Use On Aircraft Caution

Caution: Regulations of the FCC and FAA prohibit airborne operation of radio-frequency

wireless devices (wireless adapters) because their signals could interfere with critical

interfere with critical aircraft instruments.

The Wireless Adapter and Your Health

The wireless adapter, like other radio devices, emits radio frequency electromagnetic

energy. The level of energy emitted by the wireless adapter, however, is less than the

electromagnetic energy emitted by other wireless devices such as mobile phones. The

wireless adapter operates within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety

standards and recommendations.

These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific

community and result from deliberations of panels and committees of scientists who

continually review and interpret the extensive research literature. In some situations or

environments, the use of the wireless adapter may be restricted by the proprietor of the

building or responsible representatives of the applicable organization.

Examples of such situations may include:

- Using the wireless adapter on board airplanes, or

- Using the wireless adapter in any other environment where the risk of interference

with other devices or services is perceived or identified as being harmful.

If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of wireless adapters in a specific

organization or environment (an airport, for example), you are encouraged to ask for

authorization to use the adapter before you turn it on.

USA—FCC and FAA

The FCC with its action in ET Docket 96-8 has adopted a safety standard for human

exposure to radio frequency(RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC certified

equipment. The wireless adapter meets the Human Exposurelimits found in ANSI/IEEE

C95.1, 1992. Proper operation of this radioaccording to the instructions found in this

manual will result in exposure substantially below the FCC'srecommended limits.

The following safety precautions should be observed:

- Do not touch or move antenna while the unit is transmitting or receiving.

- Do not hold any component containing the radio such that the antenna is very close

or touching anyexposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while

transmitting.

- Do not operate the radio or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna is

connected; this behavior maycause damage to the radio.

• Use in specific environments:

- The use of wireless adapters in hazardous locations is limited by the constraints

posed by the safetydirectors of such environments.

- The use of wireless adapters on airplanes is governed by the Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA).

- The use of wireless adapters in hospitals is restricted to the limits set forth by each

hospital.

The product comply with the FCC portable RF exposure limit set forth for an uncontrolled

environment and are safe for intended operation as described in this manual. The further

RF exposure reduction can be achieved if the product can be kept as far as possible from

the user body or set the device to lower output power if such function is available.

Explosive device proximity warning

Warning: Do not operate a portable transmitter (including this wireless

adapter) near unshielded blastingcaps or in an explosive environment unless

the transmitter has been modified to be qualified for such use.
