Setting Up the System 2-7
In addition, you can configure conditions under which your
monitor and hard drive are placed in a power-saving state.
See “CMOS Setup Utility” in Chapter 3 for more information
on using power management features.
System Care
Your system is a durable, dependable computer built for
heavy use. With protective measures and proper care, you can
prevent problems and promote the successful operation and
long life span of your computer.
Protecting Your System From Damage
There are several ways that you can protect your system from
possible damage. NEC CSD strongly recommends the
following protective measures:
Keep the feet on the minitower system turned out. The feet
prevent the system from being tipped over. This is a safety
feature to prevent personal injury and equipment damage.
Connect a surge suppressor between your computer and a
grounded wall outlet. A surge suppressor protects your
system from sudden transient increases and decreases in
electrical power.
Be sure to connect all peripherals, such as your monitor
and printer, to the surge suppressor. The surge protector
should be the only device that you plug into the wall
outlet.
Avoid repeated power-on cycles. These subject the system
components to temperature variations and stress.
