Important Safety Precautions

Before getting started, read these instructions and save

them for later reference.

1. Turn off the computer before cleaning. Clean with a

damp or dry cloth only. Do not spray any liquid cleaner

on screen directly.

2. The power outlet socket used to plug in the computer

power cord must be located near the system and easily

accessible. Do not use outlets on the same circuit of

the systems that regularly switched on and off.

3. Make sure the voltage of the power source is correct

before connecting the computer to the power outlet.

4. If the computer is sharing an extension cord with other

devices, make sure the total ampere rating of the

devices plugged into the extension cord does not

exceed the cord’s ampere rating.

5. Do not expose the power cord, extension cord and

power outlet to moisture.

6. Install the computer on a reliable surface to prevent

damage caused by dropping.

7. This computer is not equipped with an operating

system. An operating system must be loaded first

before installing any software into the computer.

8. Disconnect the power cord from the computer before

any installation. Make sure both the computer and the

external devices are turned off. The sudden surge of

power may ruin any sensitive components. Also make

sure the computer is properly grounded.

9. During installation of any internal components, be sure

to ground yourself to keep from any static charge.

Most electronic components are sensitive to the static

electric charge. Use a grounding wrist strap and place

all electronic components in any static-shielded

devices.

10. The openings on the computer enclosure are for the

cabin ventilation to prevent the computer from

overheating. DO NOT COVER THE OPENINGS.

11. The brightness of the flat panel display will decrease

with use. However, hours of use will vary depending on

the application environment.

12. If the computer is equipped with a touch panel, avoid

using sharp objects to operate the touch panel.

Scratches on the touch panel may cause

mal-calibration or non-function to the panel.

13. The LCD panel display is not subject to shock or

vibration. When assembling the computer, make sure

it is securely installed.
