Connecting Devices
Before you begin using your PC, you must first connect the keyboard, mouse, moni-
tor, and power cord. Other components can be connected later. The devices listed
are NOT NECESSARILY INCLUDED with your PC. Please refer to the drawing on
the inside front cover of this manual to determine the existence and location of ports
on your particular PC.
Cabling
Please follow the instructions below in order to correctly connect your PC:
•
Arrange cables in such a way that no one can walk on or trip over them.
•
Do not place objects on cables.
•
To avoid damage to your PC, connect your peripherals (for example, key-
board, mouse, and monitor) while your PC is powered off. Some devices can
be connected while your PC is in use. Refer to the documentation that came
with each device.
Keep the PC at least three feet away from high frequency and magnetic interference
sources (for example, TV sets, speakers, mobile phones, etc.) in order to avoid
malfunctions and/or loss of data.
•
Please note that only shielded cables shorter than 9.84 feet should be used
for the external interfaces.
•
Only use the cables provided for connecting your peripheral devices.
•
The connection of devices is limited to equipment that complies with
EN60950 (“Safety of Information Technology Equipment”) or EN60065 (“Au-
dio, Video and Similar Electronic Apparatus”) safety requirements.
•
In the first hours of operation, new devices may emit a typical, unavoidable
but completely harmless smell, which will decline increasingly over the
course of time.
We recommend ventilating the room regularly in order to counteract the for-
mation of odor.
Note
You will only need to connect the peripherals to your PC that you re-
quire. If you do not have the described device (for example, printer)
you may skip the respective section and perform it later, if necessary.
