• Do not expose the DVR to moisture. Water is the arch-
enemy of electrical components and also poses a high risk
of electric shock.
• Avoid dusty locations. Dust has a tendency to build up
inside the DVR case, leading to a high risk of failure or
even re.
• Only install the DVR in a well ventilated space. Like
all electronics, the circuitry and hard drive in the DVR
produce heat, and this heat needs a way out.
• Do not open the DVR case except to install/swap the
hard drive inside. There are no user serviceable parts
inside.
• Never open the case whilst the DVR is plugged in, and
never turn the DVR on whilst the case is open.
• Use only the supplied power adapter. Other adapters
may cause damage to the DVR or cause a re.
• Do not cut or modify any cable for any reason. Doing
so will void your warranty, as well as pose a great risk of
re or electrical shock.
• Do not expose the DVR to sudden bumps or shocks (for
example, being dropped). The DVR is as robust as possible,
but many of the internal components are quite fragile.
• Remember that the DVR is, in all likelihood, going to be
left on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Keep this in mind
when choosing a location for installation.

useful for quickly entering numerical passwords.
