Safety Instructions

The Shogun is designed to a high standard, but there are some things you should be aware of that will prolong the life of the unit and for your own safety.
Using the Shogun safely

Although the Shogun is very lightweight compared to all the devices it replaces, it is still a solid object that could cause injury if misused.
Always make sure that the Shogun is mounted securely and is unable to fall onto anyone nearby. This is especially important when there are children present who might be tempted to pull on cables.
Always ensure that cables that run to the Shogun are clearly visible and do not present a trip hazard.
Do not place on uneven or unstable surfaces.
Do not insert anything but a Shogun Master Caddy II/III or AtomX SSDmini in the drive slot on the rear of the Shogun.
Don’t touch the Shogun screen with sharp, metallic or abrasive objects.
Do not expose it to strong electrical or magnetic fields.
Do not expose it to liquids, rain or moisture.
Do not dispose of the Shogun in municipal waste and do not incinerate it, always follow local regulations for safe disposal.
