Safety guidelines

While troubleshooting your NAS, follow these safety guidelines:

Never remove the top cover while your NAS is turned on and while the
network cable and the power cords are connected.

Make sure that you are grounded correctly before opening the NAS. For
more information about preventing damage from static electricity, see

After you complete any maintenance task where you have to remove the
top cover, make sure that you close the case and reconnect all cables before
you restart your NAS.

Instead, unplug your NAS and contact a qualified computer
technician. If your NAS was damaged during shipment
from Gateway, contact Gateway Technical Support. For
