Introduction
Installation Guidelines
• Do not expose the DVR to moisture.
Water is the arch-enemy of electrical components and also poses a high
risk of electric shock.
• Avoid dusty locations.
Dust has a tendency to build up inside the DVR case, leading to a high risk
of failure or even re.
• Only install the DVR in a well ventilated space.
Like all electronics, the circuitry and hard drive in the DVR produce heat,
and this heat needs a way out.
• Do not open the DVR case
(except to install/swap the hard drive inside).
There are no other user serviceable parts inside.
• Never open the case whilst the DVR is plugged in,
and never turn the DVR on whilst the case is open.
• Use only the supplied power adapter.
Other adapters may cause damage to the DVR or cause a re.
• Do not cut or modify any cable for any reason.
Doing so will void your warranty, and pose a risk of re or electrical shock.
• Do not expose the DVR to sudden bumps or shocks
The DVR is as robust as possible, but many of the internal
components are quite fragile.
• Remember that the DVR is, in all likelihood, going to be left on 24 hours
a day, 7 days a week. Keep this in mind when choosing a location for
installation.
