Setting Up Your System
Follow the instructions on the poster that came with your system for
assembling your system. Before you assemble your system, prepare a safe
working environment for it.
Provide a clean, flat, and stable surface for your system. Allow at
least 12 inches at the rear of the computer for cabling and air
circulation.
Obtain a grounded (three-prong) AC surge-protected power strip.
A surge-protected power strip helps protect against AC line spikes.
Protect your system from extreme temperature and humidity. Do
not expose your system to direct sunlight, heater ducts, or other
heat-generating objects.
Keep your computer away from equipment that generates magnetic
fields, such as unshielded stereo speakers. Even a telephone placed
too close to the computer may cause interference.
Plug the computer into a wall outlet or power strip that is easily
accessible. When you turn off the computer with the power button,
some electricity still flows through the computer. To remove all
power from the computer, you need to unplug it.
Important!
Keep the product carton
and packing material, in
case you need to send the
system out for repair. If you
return your system to the
factory in different
packaging, your warranty
may be void.
Caution!
Make sure your computer
and peripherals are turned
off and unplugged from the
power outlet when you
connect peripherals to the
computer.
