Before you set up your computer, it’s important to choose a safe,
convenient location that provides the following:
❏
A large, sturdy desk or table. The surface should be strong
enough to support the weight of your system and all of its
components. Select a location that allows plenty of space so
you can work comfortably.
❏
A flat, hard surface. Soft surfaces like beds and carpeted
floors attract static electricity, which can erase data on your
disks and damage the computer’s circuitry. Soft surfaces also
prevent proper ventilation.
❏
Good air circulation. Air must be able to move freely under
the system and behind it. Leave several inches of space
around the computer.
❏
Moderate environmental conditions. Protect your computer
from extremes in temperature, humidity, dust, and smoke.
Avoid direct sunlight or any other source of heat. High
humidity also hinders operation, so select a cool, dry area.
❏
Appropriate power sources. To prevent static charges,
connect all your equipment to three-prong, 120-volt
grounded outlets. You need one outlet for the computer, one
for the monitor, and additional outlets for a printer and any
other peripherals.
❏
No electromagnetic interference. Locate your system away
from any electrical device, such as a telephone, which
generates an electromagnetic field.
