Gateway ALR 8200 - Manual (Page 13)

Getting Started 3
Assembling your system
• Prepare a clean, flat, and firm surface for your computer. Allow at
least three inches at the rear of the chassis for cabling and air
circulation.
• Protect your computer from extreme temperature and humidity. Do
not expose your computer to direct sunlight, heater ducts, and other
heat-generating objects.
• Keep your system away from equipment that generates magnetic
fields. Even a telephone placed too closely to the system may
cause interference.
• Protect your system against AC power spikes by using a 3-prong,
115-V or 230-V (depending on the voltage supplied in your
locality) power cord, and an AC surge control power strip. The
system includes a TAC400 power supply. The power supply ships
with a single hot-swappable module and can support up to two
modules. The system requires a separate wall outlet for each power
supply module.
