Important safety information
Your Gateway system is designed and tested to meet
the latest standards for safety of information technology
equipment. However, to ensure safe use of this product,
it is important that the safety instructions marked on the
product and in the documentation are followed.
Caution:
Always follow these instructions to help guard against personal
injury and damage to your Gateway system.
Setting up your system
• Read and follow all instructions marked on the product
and in the documentation before you operate your
system. Retain all safety and operating instructions for
future use.
• Do not use this product near water or a heat source
such as a radiator.
• Set up the system on a stable work surface.
• The product should be operated only from the type of
power source indicated on the rating label.
• If your computer has a voltage selector switch, make
sure that the switch is in the proper position for your
area. The voltage selector switch is set at the factory
to the correct voltage.
• Openings in the computer case are provided for
ventilation. Do not block or cover these openings.
Make sure you provide adequate space, at least
6 inches (15 cm), around the system for ventilation
when you set up your work area. Never insert objects
of any kind into the computer ventilation openings.
• Some products are equipped with a three-wire
power cord to make sure that the product is properly
grounded when in use. The plug on this cord will fit
only into a grounding-type outlet. This is a safety
feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into an
outlet, contact an electrician to install the appropriate
outlet.
• If you use an extension cord with this system, make
sure that the total ampere rating on the products
plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the
extension cord ampere rating.
• Since your system is fitted with a TV Tuner, cable, or
satellite receiver card, make sure that the antenna or
cable system is electrically grounded to provide some
protection against voltage surges and buildup of static
charges.
