Before reading this manual

For your safety

This manual contains important information for safely and correctly using this 
product.

Carefully read the manual before using this product. Pay particular attention to 
the accompanying manual "Safety Notes and Regulations" and ensure these 
safety notes are understood before using the product. Keep this manual and the 
manual "Safety Notes and Regulations" in a safe place for easy reference while 
using this product. 

Radio interference

This product is a "Class A" ITE (Information Technology Equipment). In a 
domestic environment this product may cause radio interference, in which case 
the user may be required to take appropriate measures.

VCCI-A

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors 

The aluminum electrolytic capacitors used in the product's printed circuit board 
assemblies and in the mouse and keyboard are limited-life components. Use of 
these components beyond their operating life may result in electrolyte leakage 
or depletion, potentially causing emission of foul odor or smoke.

As a guideline, in a normal office environment (25°C) operating life is not 
expected to be reached within the maintenance support period (5 years). 
However, operating life may be reached more quickly if, for example, the product 
is used in a hot environment. The customer shall bear the cost of replacing 
replaceable components which have exceeded their operating life. Note that 
these are only guidelines, and do not constitute a guarantee of trouble-free 
operation during the maintenance support period.    

High safety use

This product has been designed and manufactured for general uses such as 
general office use, personal use, domestic use and normal industrial use. It has 
not been designed or manufactured for uses which demand an extremely high 
level of safety and carry a direct and serious risk to life or body if such safety 
cannot be ensured.
