6.1 Dock location

All care must be taken when locating and using the dock to:

• Prevent damage to the charging leaf contacts.

• Prevent liquids or dirt entering the dock vents or charging slots.

• Prevent metallic objects (eg screws, swarf etc.) entering the dock vents and charging slots.

• Replace any worn, damaged or cracked power cables.

A single dock is designed to sit horizontally or vertically on a desktop surface but if space is at a premium

or multiple docks are used, they can be mounted in a vertical orientation on a wall or custom-built

frame. Refer Figure 12 Desktop only - horizontal and Figure 13 Desktop/wall - vertical below. If placed

on a horizontal surface, ensure that the dock is in a convenient location for users to comfortably remove

Personal Nodes smoothly without pulling or twisting the nodes. The dock should also be placed in a

suitable location to avoid liquid spills or debris entering the vent holes or the charging slots.

The dock will eventually accumulate dust and debris from the environment so for best performance and

longevity, consider housing docks in a cooled and air-filtered rooms and/or cabinets. In any case:

• Keep the dock free of dust and dirt build-up, as this may reduce its effectiveness. If there is a large

amount of dust, this should be cleaned off, using a firm brush or compressed air if permitted and

available at your site.

• Do not use harsh abrasive materials on the body or charging contacts.

• Persistent dirt can be removed using a slightly damp soft cloth (use only a mild detergent).

• Keep all liquids away from the power supply connections.
