General Information
Precautionary measures
To ensure that your Freecom Mobile Drive Secure functions properly, please take note
of the following precautions. If these are not followed, you may void your warranty and
damage the Freecom Mobile Drive Secure.
Saf
ely remove the Freecom Mobile Drive Secure via your operating system (the "unplug
or eject hardware" option in the Windows taskbar) before disconnecting the USB cable
or power cable and before switching off the device. Failing to do so may result in data
loss.
Do
not drop the Freecom Mobile Drive Secure or expose it to other kinds of sudden
mechanical shocks as this may result in data loss and damage to the Freecom Mobile
Drive Secure.
Do
not use the Freecom Mobile Drive Secure when the ambient temperature is below
10°C or above 35°C.
If
the Freecom Mobile Drive Secure is moved from a cool environment to a warmer
environment, please allow the drive to acclimatize to the ambient temperature
before operating the device. Failing to do so may lead to condensation within the
drive enclosure, which in turn may cause the drive to malfunction.
Do
not place liquids or drinks on the Freecom Mobile Drive Secure. When liquids are
spilled and get in contact with the electronics within the drive enclosure, it will damage
the drive and will cause the drive to malfunction.
Do
not use the Freecom Mobile Drive Secure in a dusty environment. Dust inside the
enclosure may damage the internal electronics and result in drive malfunction.
Op
ening the Freecom Mobile Drive Secure will void the warranty.
Since USB 2.0 is backwards compatible with USB 1.1, the Freecom Mobile Drive Secure
can be connected to all USB ports. When connected to a USB 1.1 port, however, the
performance (data transfer rate) of the Freecom Mobile Drive Secure will be much
lower than when the drive is connected to a USB 2.0 port.
On some computers it might occur that the USB port does not deliver enough
power to the Mobile Drive Secure. In that case, you need to use an external
power supply.
For safety reasons you must only use Freecom’s Power Supply Part.No. 30003.
Don’t use any other other power supply!
