Important safety instructions
Installation
Read instructions —
Read and follow all of the safety and operating instructions before
operating the SOMAport.
Retain instructions — Retain the safety and operating instructions for future reference.
Heed warnings
— Adhere to all warnings on the SOMAport and in the operating
instructions.
Ventilation —
Slots and openings in the SOMAport housing provide ventilation, ensure its
reliable operation, and protect it from overheating. Do not block or cover these openings. Do
not place the SOMAport in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless there is
proper ventilation or the installation instructions have been adhered to.
Power sources —
Use only the type of power source indicated on the label. If you are not
sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your product dealer or local power
company.
Grounding or polarization —
The plug for the power cord on the SOMAport fits into the
power outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact
your electrician to replace your outlet. To prevent electric shock, do not use this plug with an
extension cord or outlet unless you can fully insert the blades without blade exposure. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of this plug.
Power-cord protection —
Route power-supply cords so that they are not likely to be
walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them. Watch for wear in the cord at
the plug and socket.
Accessories —
To avoid personal injury or damage to the SOMAport, do not place it on
an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table.
Attachments —
Do not use attachments with the SOMAport that have not been
recommended in this guide as they may cause hazards.
