Operational Safety
Please read this chapter carefully and observe all listed notes.
This ensures a reliable operation and long life expectancy of your PC.
•
Do not allow children to play unattended with electrical equipment. Children are
incapable of judging potential risks properly.
•
Keep the packing materials, such as plastic sheeting away from children. The danger
of suffocation could arise in the case of misuse.
•
Do not open the PC casing or use the PC with the casing removed. When the casing is
open there is a danger to life from electric shock.
•
Optical drives are Laser Class 1 devices. These lasers must remain in their sealed PC
casing. Do not remove the drive covers, as exposure to the lasers may prove harmful.
•
Do not insert objects through the slots and openings of the PC. This may lead to elec-
tric shock, electrical short-circuit or fire that will damage your PC.
•
Do not cover the slots and openings in the PC casing. These openings are for ventila-
tion purposes. Covering these vents may lead to overheating. Please keep free a
minimum distance of 20 cm on all sides when setting up the PC.
Switch off your PC immediately
or do not switch it on at all
and contact customer
service …

the defective power cord with an original power cord. Under no circumstances may a
defective power cord be repaired.
•
... if the housing of the PC is damaged or fluids have leaked into it. Have the PC
checked by customer service first, because the PC may not be safely operated other-
wise and there may be a life-threatening risk of electrocution!
