Chapter 1: FCC Warnings
FCC
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
FCC Compliance Statement
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against frequency
interference in residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed or used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communication. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on. The user is encouraged
to try and correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

The Federal Communications Commission warns the user that changes or
modifications to the unit not expressly approved by the part responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

INSTRUCTIONS

Use the provided power adapter.
Do not use this product with a power
source that applies more than the
specified voltage.
Never insert metal into the DVR case
or its openings. Inserting metal into the
DVR case may cause electric shock.
Do not operate in wet or dusty areas.
Avoid placing the DVR in areas such
as a damp basement or dusty attic.
Do not expose the DVR to rain or use
near water. If the DVR accidentally
gets wet, unplug it and contact
technical support immediately.
Keep product surfaces clean and dry.
To clean the outside case of the DVR,
use a lightly dampened cloth. Do not
use cleaning solutions or solvents.
Do not install near any heat sources.
Do not install the DVR near any heat
sources such as stoves, heat registers,
radiators or electronics (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
Unplug the DVR when moving it.
Make sure that the DVR is unplugged
before you move it. When moving this
device, be sure to handle it with care.
Make sure there is good air circulation
around the DVR.
This DVR uses an internal hard drive,
which generates heat during operation
for video storage. Do not block vents
on the DVR, as these vents reduce
the generated heat while the system
is running. Place this product in well-
ventilated area.
Do not attempt to remove the top
cover. If you observe any abnormal
operation, unplug the DVR immediately
and contact technical support. Do not
attempt to open the DVR to diagnose
the cause of the problem.
Handle the DVR carefully.
If you drop the DVR on any hard
surface, it may damage the device.
If the DVR doesn’t work properly
due to physical damage, contact an
authorized dealer for repair.
It is recommended to use your DVR
with an uninterruptible power supply
(UPS). Connecting your DVR and
cameras to a UPS allows continuous
operation even during power outages.
The run-time duration will depend on
the rating of the UPS used.
Chapter 2: Safety Instructions
