General Safety 
Recommendations
Before installing your switch, note the following safety recommendations:
Switch off the power supply before connecting the cables.
Keep the switch away from heat sources.
To ensure normal heat dissipation, do not stack switches.
Do not keep the switch in a damp place, and prevent liquid from getting into 
the switch.
Ensure that the neutral point of the power is grounded properly, to avoid 
personal injury.
Ensure that the power is off before plugging or unplugging the modules and 
cables of the switch.
Before moving the chassis, disconnect all the power cords and external cables.
To avoid damage to the switch, connect all the cables correctly. Never connect 
telephone cables (including the ISDN lines) to the console or AUX port.
