Important Safety Considerations

An advanced set-top containing an internal hard drive requires careful handling to avoid
damaging the drive. Be sure to follow these guidelines.

During Transportation to the Subscriber Home

Transport the set-top in its shipping box or an equally padded container.
Transport the set-top in a vehicle from 41ºF (5ºC) to 122ºF (50ºC).
Do not expose the set-top to rain or moisture.
Do not drop the set-top or expose the set-top to shock or vibration.
To avoid damage from condensation, avoid drastic temperature changes.

During Installation

To maintain normal operating temperature, provide for adequate ventilation and airflow
around the set-top. If you must transport or store the set-top in a cold or hot vehicle, allow time
for the set-top to adapt to the temperature in the subscriber home before applying AC power.
