Notes:
1. Please gently press the power button to avoid possible damages.
2. The HDMI is a DP/HDMI combo port but can only transmit HDMI signals (unless wired as a DP
port). Please plug in an HDMI cable with the right orientation and alignment to avoid damage to
the connector.
You should feel resistance (due to a pin on the right) if the cable is not inserted
correctly. Please see a video at https://youtu.be/SUj07rfN5l8 for detailed instructions.
