Safety Information
WARNING
• Opening the unit, for whatever reason, could
lead to damages that are not covered by the
warranty.
• Do not touch the device or accessories during
thunder storms. Electrical shock could result.
• This device is made for use in the USA only.
• For indoor use only.
• While using the Access Point, do not cover it or
turn it on its side. Do not cover the Access
Point with objects such as magazines or
newspapers or use it in confined, enclosed
places, such as the spaces between walls and
furniture. Further, do not turn the Access Point
on its side while using it. Either situation could
cause heat to build up inside the Access Point,
leading to overheating and possible fire.
• Carefully place the Ethernet cable, AC adapter,
and other wiring. Personal injury or damage to
the Access Point could result from people
tripping over the Ethernet cable, AC adapter, or
power cord. Protect wiring by locating it in
places where people do not walk.
• Do not swing the AC adapter. Injury could
result if the adapter strikes a person or fragile
material, such as glass.
• Keep the Access Point out of the reach of
children. Unforeseeable injury could result
from swallowing loose parts, etc.
• Place the Access Point on a stable surface. Do
not place the Access Point on wobbly or tilted
surfaces. Tipping or falling could result in
injury.
• When using wall mounting, make sure that the
wall is strong enough to support the Access
Point. The Access Point could fall if the wall is
not strong enough, leading to unforeseeable
accidents. Further, be careful not to drop the
unit or the tools used for mounting it. Doing so
could result in unforeseeable accidents.
• Avoid locations that are directly exposed to
sunlight or heaters.
• Internal overheating could result in fire or
damage to the unit.
• Make sure connectors are properly connected.
– Do not insert any metallic objects inside the
connectors. Short-circuiting the pins could
cause fire or damage to the unit.
– Be careful to insert connectors squarely.
Crooked insertion could cause pins to short-
circuit, possibly causing fire or damage to
the unit.
• Use only the supplied AC adapter with your
Sony Wireless LAN Access Point. To
disconnect your Wireless LAN Access Point
from the power supply, unplug the AC adapter.
