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

■

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

■

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

■

Install the access point on a stable work surface in an open area away from people.

■

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

■

If your access point has a voltage selector switch, make sure that the switch is in the correct position for your 
geographic area.  The power supply should be set at the factory to the correct voltage, but check to avoid 
possible damage.

■

Openings in the case are provided for ventilation. Do not block or cover these openings. Make sure you provide 
adequate space, at least 6 inches (15 cm), around the AP for ventilation when you set it up. Never insert objects 
of any kind into the ventilation openings.

■

Some products are equipped with a three-wire power cord to make sure that the product is correctly 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 access point, make sure that the total ampere rating on the products 
plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the extension cord ampere rating.

Always follow these instructions to help 
guard against personal injury and damage 
to your Gateway access point.

High voltages can enter your AP through both the power 
cord and the cable connections going outside the building. 
Protect your equipment by using a surge protector.   During 
an electrical storm, unplug the surge protector and any 
cables going outside the building.

A qualified electrician must perform all mains connections 
to power and to safety grounds. All electrical wiring must 
comply with applicable local or national codes and 
practices.

Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the 
equipment in the absence of a suitably installed ground 
conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection 
authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable 
grounding is available.
