Updating Supplement for this manual. The Manual Updating Supplement may also contain
information for correcting errors in the manual. To keep the manual as current and accurate as
possible, periodically request the latest Manual Updating Supplement for this manual from your

Initial Inspection
Inspect the shipping container for damage. If the shipping container or cushioning material
is damaged, it should be kept until the contents of the shipment have been checked for
completeness and the mainframe has been checked mechanically and electrically. Refer to
table 1-1 to determine what accessories should have been shipped with the mainframe. If the
shipping contents are incomplete or damaged, notify the nearest Hewlett-Packard Sales and
Service Oce.
