Conditions of use (all models except SNi20, SNi40 and SNxr1200)

The Stormshield Network Security firewall is designed to run continuously, in an office or in a server room. If you wish to install your appliance in an office, choose a flat and uncluttered surface. Add the non-slip rubber feet to SN160, SN160W, SN210, SN210W, SN310, SN-XS-Series-170, SN-S-Series-220, SN-S-Series-320, SN510, SN-M-Series-520, SN710, SN910, SN-M-Series-720, SN-M-Series-920, SN1100 and SNi10 models: stick a non-slip rubber foot to the underside of the appliance, close to each corner about 2 cm from the edges. This will ensure the stability of the firewall and protect it from scratches.

IMPORTANT
When firewalls are in storage, they have to be powered up for a 24-hour period at least once every two years, to allow the internal electrolytic capacitors to reform. Failure to do so may compromise their reliability.

WARNING
The firewall must be installed in compliance with state-of-the-art conditions of secure installation, i.e., in a protected office or other premises with limited access. To guarantee the integrity of the product and to avoid compromising the security of your installation, all unauthorized access to the firewall must be prevented.

NOTE
Ensure that the cables do not obstruct passageways to prevent them from being pulled out or the product from falling.

Do not install and/or use your Stormshield firewall close to an area where inflammable objects are stored or used. Your Stormshield firewall is intended for indoor use (office environment or other IT environment), away from areas that may receive rainfall, floods or excessive humidity. It must be installed away from sources of shocks, vibrations, and dust, in an environment where the temperature conforms to the product's specifications.

The ideal ambient temperature is around 25°C. The tables below set out the operational temperature, storage temperature and humidity level for all models of SNS range.

IMPORTANT
Avoid in particular direct exposure to sunlight. Always keep adequate distance around the appliance’s vents in order to guarantee a free flow of air, thereby preventing the possibility of overheating.

IMPORTANT
Do not place objects on your Stormshield Network appliance.

IMPORTANT

Stormshield Network Security appliances have been tested, and comply with the limits defined for Class A digital devices, in line with section 15 of the FCC regulation. The purpose of these limits is to provide reasonable protection from harmful interference that may arise when an appliance is used in a commercial environment. Stormshield Network Security firewalls generate, use and potentially emit radioelectric waves that may cause harmful interference to radio communications if not installed and used according to the instructions in the manual. Using your appliance in a residential area may cause harmful interference. If this is the case, the user will need to resolve these issues at his own expense.

Stormshield Network Security firewalls comply with the requirements set out in the European standard EN55032, Class A. In a residential environment, a Class A product may cause radioelectric interference, for which the user may need to take appropriate measures.
