Appendix

B Safety, Maintenance,
and Ergonomics
This appendix provides important information about
safety procedures, routine maintenance, and ergonomic
considerations for using your computer and display.
Important Safety Information
The only way to disconnect power completely from your computer is to unplug the
power cord from the main power supply. To disconnect your display completely, you
must also unplug its power cable from the computer or power outlet. Make sure that at
least one end of the device’s power cord is within easy reach so that you can unplug
the computer or display when necessary.
For your own safety and that of your equipment, always take the following
precautions.
Disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug, not the cord), from your computer or
display and disconnect the phone cord if any of the following conditions exists:
• The power cord or plug becomes frayed or otherwise damaged
• You spill something into the case
• Your computer or display is exposed to rain or any other excess moisture
• Your computer or display has been dropped or the case has been otherwise
damaged
• You suspect that your computer or display needs service or repair
• You want to clean the computer or display case or screen
• You notice a coolant leak in or from your computer (for Power Mac G5 models
equipped with a liquid cooling system)
If you plan to store your computer for an extended period of time, remove the battery.
