Operating Guidelines
Follow these operating guidelines for your computer:
•
Operator access is limited to the front of the computer, which includes the
display and the touchscreen (if available).
•
When mounted in an enclosure, keep the enclosure door closed during
operation so dust and other airborne contamination do not infiltrate the
computer. Open the door only for routine maintenance.
•
Do not operate the computer with the covers removed. Removing the
covers disrupts air flow and results in overheating.
•
Always use the proper power down procedures as required by your
operating system, such as the Shut Down command in the Microsoft
Windows operating system.
•
After shutting down the computer, do not apply power again until
shutdown is complete.
For computers with a HDD, the HDD must come to a complete stop,
which can take up to 30 seconds after shutdown is initiated.
IMPORTANT
Access to components behind the panel where the computer is
installed and the front USB port (if available) is restricted to authorized
and properly trained personnel.
SHOCK HAZARD:
All covers are required to maintain EMI shield.
