Important safety information

Important safety information

Your Gateway port replicator is designed and tested to meet the latest standards for safety 
of information technology equipment. However, to ensure safe use of this port replicator, it 
is important that the safety instructions marked on the port replicator and in the 
documentation are followed.

Setting up your port replicator

Read and follow all instructions marked on the port replicator and in the documentation 
before you operate your port replicator. Retain all safety and operating instructions for 
future use.

Do not use this port replicator near water or a heat source such as a radiator.

Set up the port replicator on a stable work surface.

The port replicator should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on 
the rating label.

Some port replicators are equipped with a three-wire power cord to make sure that the 
port replicator is properly grounded when in use. The plug on this cord will fit only into 
a grounding-type outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into 
an outlet, contact an electrician to install the appropriate outlet.

If you use an extension cord with this port replicator, make sure that the total ampere 
rating on the products plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the extension 
cord ampere rating.

Care during use

Do not walk on the power cord or allow anything to rest on it.

Do not spill anything on the port replicator. The best way to avoid spills is to avoid 
eating and drinking near your port replicator.

Unplug the port replicator from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified personnel 
if:

The power cord or plug is damaged.

Liquid has been spilled into the port replicator.

The port replicator does not operate properly when the operating instructions are 
followed.

The port replicator was dropped or the cabinet is damaged.

The port replicator performance changes.

Replacement parts and accessories

Use only replacement parts and accessories recommended by Gateway.

Warning

Always follow these instructions to help guard against 
personal injury and damage to your Gateway port 
replicator.
