ATTENTION: Risk of permanent equipment damage exists. Once a flash
update has been started, do not remove power from the drive until after the
download has completed and the 1203-SSS’s diamond-shaped LED status
indicator starts FLASHING GREEN. If power is removed before this
occurs, the 1203-SSS may be permanently damaged. A 1203-SSS that has
been damaged in this way cannot be repaired.
