During Installation 
•  Do not place the terminal in an enclosed area where the cooling vents are blocked or impede the 
flow of air through the ventilation openings. 
•   Install the terminal so that its position does not  interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, 
do not place the terminal on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that could block the ventilation 
openings. 
•   Install the terminal away from heat sources such  as radiators, heat registers, and stoves. 
Installation of the terminal near consumer elec tronics devices, such as stereo receiver/amplifiers 
and televisions, is permitted as long as the air surrounding the terminal does not exceed 40º C 
(104º F). 
•   Place the terminal on a flat surface not prone to vibration or impact. 
•   Do not install the terminal in an area where condensation occurs. 
•   To prevent the temporary loss of guide data and cause a temporarily non-responding terminal, do 
not plug the AC power cord into a switched power outlet. 
•   Do not move the terminal while it is plugged in.
