Step 2 – Switch Installation
For safe switch installation and operation, it is
recommended that you:

secured fully to the AC power connector
♦ Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation and
adequate ventilation around the switch
♦ Do not place heavy objects on the switch
Desktop or Shelf Installation
When installing the switch on a desktop or shelf, the
rubber feet included with the device must be attached on
the bottom at each corner of the device's base. Allow
enough ventilation space between the device and the
objects around it.
