Placement Tips
To prevent the firewall from overheating or being damaged:
• Ambient Temperature—Do not operate it in an area that exceeds an
ambient temperature of 104°F (40°C).
• Air Flow—Be sure that there is adequate air flow around the firewall.
• Mechanical Loading—Be sure that the firewall is level and stable to
avoid any hazardous conditions.
Place the device on a flat surface so that it sits on its four rubber feet.
