8. Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electrical shock.
9. Lightning – For added protection for this product during storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods, unplug it from the wall outlet. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power line surges.
10. Object and Liquid Entry Points – Never insert foreign objects into the recorder, other than the media types approved by AvertX, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electrical shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
11. Accessories – Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall, causing serious personal injury and serious damage to the product.
12. Burden – Do not place a heavy object on or step on the product. The object may fall, causing serious personal injury and serious damage to the product.
13. Damage Requiring Service – Unplug the unit from the outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
• If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the unit.
• If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the unit does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the unit to its normal operation.
• If the unit has been dropped or the enclosure has been damaged.
• When the unit exhibits a distinct change in performance – this indicates a need for service.
15. Replacement Parts – When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.

CAUTION
RACK MOUNT INSTRUCTIONS
Elevated Operating Ambient – If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
Reduced Air Flow – Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading – Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading – Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on over current protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Grounding – Grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
