Additional notes for proper operation
• Position the unit so that there is adequate air for cooling. Never
cover the ventilation slots on the unit. This could cause
overheating and thus shorten the life of your unit.
• Protect your device from very high humidity, direct sunlight as
well as high and extremely low temperatures. If the device is
brought from a cold environment into a warmer installation site,
bedewing may occur. Wait until the temperature of the device
has equalised and it is completely dry before you put it into
operation (approx. 2 to 4 hours).
• The unit is not waterproof. Do not immerse it in water and protect
it from spray (rain, seawater).
• Should an abnormal odour or smoke be produced and in
emergencies (e.g. damage to the housing, operating controls or
power cable, and liquid or foreign bodies entering the unit),
switch the device off immediately, remove the plug and contact
your sales agent or our hotline/Help Desk.
• Do not smoke in the vicinity of the unit. Particles of ash may
settle on the monitor or inside your computer.
• Do not eat over the keyboard as crumbs may cause it to
malfunction.
• Ensure that the cables from the PC do not pose any risk (danger
of stumbling) and cannot be damaged.
• The computer should preferably be transported in the original
packaging as it has been specially designed for the system unit.
• Use a high quality double-screened cable to connect the printer.
If your system comes with a printer cable, you should use it.
• The ID plate may also be located underneath the housing.
• You may have to remove a securing device used during
transportation from the underside of the mouse.
• When you switch off ATX and µATX systems, the system will still
be in standby mode and still be connected to the mains. You will
have to disconnect the mains plug to isolate the unit.
• If the monitor is connected to the power socket on the PC power
supply unit (if available), it will not be turned off when the PC is
switched off.
• If you have a monitor which supports power management, it will
also switch to standby. If the monitor does not have this function,
you must switch it off separately when you finish working with the
PC.
