Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use12 - ENGLISHPrecautions for useCautions when transportingf When transporting this device, avoid excessive vibration and impacts. Failure to do so may cause damage tointernal components and result in malfunctions.Cautions when installingrDo not set up the device outdoors.The device is designed for indoor use only.rDo not set up the device in the following locations.f Places where vibration and impacts occur such as in a car or vehicle: Doing so may cause damage to internalcomponents or malfunction.f Location close to sea or location where corrosive gas occurs: It may affect the life of the parts or malfunction.f Near high-voltage power lines or near motors: Doing so may interfere with the operation of the device.rDo not install the device at elevations of 2 700 m (8 858') or higher above sea level.Doing so may shorten the life of the components and result in malfunctions.rDo not block the air intake port or the air exhaust port of the device, or use in acondition that will disrupt the air intake/exhaust.Doing so may cause damage to internal components and result in malfunctions.The operating environment temperature of the device should be between 0 °C (32 °F) and 40 °C (104 °F) whenusing it at elevations lower than 1 400 m (4 593') above sea level, and between 0 °C (32 °F) and 35 °C (95 °F)when using it at elevations between 1 400 m (4 593') and 2 700 m (8 858') above sea level.rAlways install the device with the bottom side down.Failure to do so may shorten the life of the internal components and result in malfunctions.rWhen installing the device at a place, where electric statistic occurs often, take asufficient anti-static measure before start using.f When the device is used at a location, where static electricity occurs often, such as on a carpet,communications of the DIGITAL LINK and the wired LAN are disconnected more often.In that case, remove static electricity and the noise source that may cause problems with an antistatic mat.f In rare cases, the LAN connection is disabled due to static electricity or noise.In that case, turn off the power of the device and the connected devices once and then turn on the power again.rAsk a qualified technician or your dealer for wiring work of the cable for DIGITALLINK.If the work is not properly conducted, the cable transmission characteristics do not meet, and the images andsounds may be interrupted or become unstable.rThe device may not work properly due to strong radio wave from the broadcaststation or the radio.Install away from a facility or equipment that will generate strong radio wave. Or, sheathe the LAN cableconnected to the terminal and the terminal with a metal foil ormetal tubing that is grounded at both ends.
