construction, labeling, and information when used as outlined below
:
CAUTION
Risk of shock
Mains voltages inside this unit. No user serviceable parts inside. Refer
service to qualified personnel only!
Do not use product near water (i.e. wet basement, bathtub, sink or near a
swimming pool, etc.), to avoid risk of electrocu t
ion.
The product shall be cleaned using only a damp, lint-free, cloth. No sol-
vents or cleaning agents shall be used.
Do not use spray cleaners or aerosols on the gateway.
Avoid using and/or connecting the equipment during an electri cal storm, to
avoid risk of electrocution.
Do not locate the equipment within 6 feet (1.9 m) of a flame or ignition
source (i.e. heat registers, space heaters, fireplaces, etc.).
Use only power supply and power cord included with the equip ment.
Equipment should be installed near the power outlet and should be easily
accessible.
The shield of the coaxial cable must be connected to earth (grounded) at the
entrance to the building in accordance with applicable national electrical in-
stallation codes. In the U.S., this is required by NFPA 70 (National Electrical
Code) Article 820. In the European Union and in certain other countries,
CATV instal lation equipotential bonding requirements are specified in IEC
60728-11,

If the equipment is to be installed in an area serviced by an IT power line
network, as is found in many areas of Norway, spe c
ial attention should be
given that the installation is in accor dance with IEC 60728-11, in particular
Annex B and Figure B.4.
In areas of high surge events or poor grounding situations and areas prone
to lightning strikes, additional surge protection may be required (i.e.
PF11VNT3 from American Power Conver s
ion) on the AC, RF and Ethernet
lines.
When the Data Gateway is connected to a local computer through Ethernet
cables, the computer must be proper ly grounded to the building/residence
AC ground network. All plug-in cards within the computer must be properly
installed and grounded to the computer frame per the manufacturer’s spec-
ifications.
Ensure proper ventillation. Position the Data Gateway so that air flows freely
around it and the ventillation holes on the unit are not blocked.
Do not mount the Data Gateway on surfaces that are sensitive to heat
and/or which may be damaged by the heat generated by the modem, its
power supply, or other accessories.
