Other Information
Notes on Use
On the Power Source

Your computer operates on 100-120 V AC 50/60 Hz for North American countries.

The total power draw of installed add-in cards must not exceed the specifications for the power
supply. Do not overload the system by installing add-in cards that draw excessive current. The
system is designed to provide 2 amps (average) of 5V power for each card in the system not to
exceed a total of 12 amps. The total from +5V current draw in a fully-loaded system (with all the
add-in card slots filled) must not exceed 12 amps. If you add components to the system that
draw current from the power supply, the maximum co3.3V and +5V output must not
exceed 80 watts.

Plug all the power cords for your computer and its peripheral equipment into the same AC supply
line. AC derived from different supply lines may result in voltage differences that can cause
unstable operation or unwanted weak currents at the time of connection.

Do not share the AC outlet with any other power-consuming equipment, such as copying
machines or shredders.

You can purchase a power strip with a surge protector. This device prevents damage to your
computer caused by sudden power surges such as those that may occur during an electrical
storm.

If you live in an area that experiences frequent power fluctuations, you may want to purchase a
UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply). This device contains both a surge protector and a battery
backup. The surge protector prevents damage to your computer caused by power surges. The
battery backup safeguards your data during a brief period of power loss.

Do not place heavy objects on the power cord.

Do not operate the system with the cover removed. Always reinstall the cover before turning on
the system.

To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

Unplug your computer from the wall outlet if you will not be using the computer for a long time.

The power control button on the front panel does not turn off the system AC power. To remove
power from the system, you must shut down the computer as described in this manual and then
unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet or power strip.

Before touching anything inside the computer, turn the system off and let it cool for ten minutes.
This will ensure that the processor heat sink will not be hot.

Do not attempt to open the power supply. There are no user-serviceable parts in the power
supply. To avoid personal injury or damage to your equipment, refer the repair or replacement of
the power supply to qualified personnel only.
