Electromagnetic compatibility

• External units, such as monitors, joysticks, etc., may only be

connected to the interface ports with screened cables to meet the
harmonised standards under electromagnetic compatibility
(EMC) legislation.

• You may only operate the unit if its rated voltage matches the

local mains voltage.


Information on R&TTE Directive

• Fujitsu Siemens Computers hereby declares that the built-in

modem conforms to the fundamental requirements and the
relevant standards contained in the directive 1999/5/EC.

• The complete original declaration of conformity for the R&TTE

Directive can be found in your PC’s electronic documentation.


Computer setup

• Before you change, install or remove any components,

disconnect the mains plug and, if applicable, detach the
telephone cable from the PC (pull out the plug).

• Before you open the housing, you must switch the PC off and

remove the plug from the socket. The proper operation
(according to IEC 60950/EN 60950) of the unit is only
guaranteed with a fully attached housing and covers for
installation slots ( electrical shock, cooling, fire prevention, noise
suppression).

• Only authorised qualified personnel should open the unit.

Tampering with the unit will result in a loss of the right to
guarantee claims and the discontinuation of the manufacturer's
guarantee obligation to uphold the harmonised standards
according to the law regarding the electromagnetic compatibility
of units and low voltage directive.

• All integrated circuits and memory modules, as well as the

contacts on all sockets and plugs, are susceptible to static
electricity. Protect these from static electricity. The effect of static
electricity, rapid transients or strong electromagnetic fields on the
unit may cause faults. When exchanging or installing a board or a
memory module, touch an earthed object or carry a ground strap
to divert any electrostatic charge from your body.

• All ports are only designed for connection of safety extra-low

voltage (SELV).
