1) Startup

Use the provided USB Y-connection cable to connect the DataStation to your PC. Connect both USB A-plugs to the USB ports of your PC and then the mini-USB A-plug to the DataStation. Your operating system will automatically recognize the DataStation, and add the DataStation as a "LOCAL DISK" (or "LOCAL DRIVE") to "MY COMPUTER"/"COMPUTER" (Microsoft® Windows) or the "DESKTOP" (Mac® OS X and Linux®).

In order to ensure a convenient supply of power to the ultra-mobile DataStation pocket without having to carry an external power supply unit, all DataStation pocket are delivered with a lightweight and space-saving USB Y-connection cable. Please always insert both USB A-plugs and make sure that your computer or notebook offers sufficient power (500 mA) at both USB ports. Insufficient power, which may occur when only one plug is inserted or when a passive USB hub is used, can in rare cases cause data loss or even mechanical failure of the hard disk. TrekStor assumes no liability or warranty for damage to the DataStation arising from insufficient power.

i If only one free USB port is available in your PC or notebook, please proceed as follows:

1) Connect the USB plug (1) to the power supply with a USB charger (such as a TrekStor USB charger e.f. which can be purchased separately) or an active USB hub.
2) Next, insert the USB plug (2) for data transmission into your PC or notebook.
3) Plug the mini-USB plug (3) into the DataStation.

Instructions for safety and use:

Only qualified persons may perform technical work on the product. The product may not be opened or changed. The components cannot be serviced by the user.

Never expose the device to moisture, condensation and liquids.

Protect the device from extremely high and low temperatures and temperature fluctuations. Use the device within an ambient temperature of 10^ C to 40^ C.

Never place the device close to a source of heat, and protect it from direct sunlight.

Make sure that the surroundings are as dust-free as possible when you use and store the device.

Never clean the surface of the device with solvents, paint thinners, cleansers or other chemical products. Instead, use a soft, dry cloth or soft brush.

Do not use USB cables longer than 3 meters.

In certain circumstances, exposing the device to an electrostatic discharge may interrupt the data transfer between the device and the computer and impair the functions of the device. If this occurs, the device should be unplugged from the USB port and then plugged in again.

The capacity indicated by your operating system can be different than the actual capacity of your external hard drive. Like most manufacturers of computer hardware, TrekStor uses the prefixes for units (e.g. 1 GB = 1.000.000.000 bytes) as prescribed by the International System of Units (SI). Unfortunately, many operating systems do not comply with this norm and display a lower capacity because they base their calculations on the assumption that 1 GB = 2^30 bytes = 1.073.741.824 bytes.

The manufacturer retains the right to continually improve the product. These changes may be made without being directly described in these operating instructions. For this reason, the information provided in these operating instructions may not reflect the current state of the art.

The manufacturer only guarantees suitability for the product's intended purpose. In addition, the manufacturer is not responsible for damages or loss of data and subsequent consequences.
