FCC WARNINGS

8XHD Series User’s Manual

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.

CAUTION

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.

SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

10 XHD Series User’s Manual

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

You may be subjected to severe electrical shock

if you remove the cover of the DVR.
