Maintenance and service

The information in this section is designed for use by qualified service personal.

Service interval

Clean dust from the chassis exterior/interior and exchange filter foam based on the operating environment.

Cleaning

 

Clean surface of the chassis with dry lint-free cloth.

 

Use a dry velocity stream of air to clean the chassis interior.
Do not use harsh chemical cleaning agents.

NOTICE

Many components within the chassis are sensitive to static discharge damage. Always wear a ground 

wrist strap and service the unit only in static-free environment.

WARNING

Risk of injury

Disconnect all cables before servicing the unit.

Updates

Windows and antivirus/security software

Before installing Windows software updates consult with DEWETRON for compatibility guidance. Also keep in mind 

that the use of any antivirus or other security software may slow down your system and may cause data loss.

Software updates

NOTICE

The system BIOS is protected by password. Any change in the BIOS may cause a system crash. When 

the system is booting, do not press ESC-button on keyboard. This may clear the BIOS settings and cause 

system faults.
Any change in the file structure as deleting or adding files or directories might cause a system crash.
Before installing software updates contact DEWETRON or your local distributor. Use only software 

packages which are released by DEWETRON. Further information is also available in the Internet (http://

www.dewetron.com).
After power off the system wait at least 10 seconds before switching the system on again. Otherwise the 

system may not boot correct. This prolongs also the life of all system components.
