Ventilation, COA Label, and Serial Number Label Information

Proper ventilation for your system is very important. Refer to the notes and illustrations below to properly
position your system for maximum airflow.
Operate the computer on a sturdy, level surface.
Place the computer in an area that is relatively cool with adequate ventilation. Provide at least 6
inches of clearance at the front and back of the workstation. For cabinet installation, ensure
adequate cabinet ventilation and ensure that the ambient temperature within the cabinet does not
exceed 35°C (95°F).
Never restrict the incoming or outgoing airflow of the computer by blocking any vents or air intakes.

Each HP Workstation has two unique serial number labels 1 and a Certificate of Authentication (COA)
label 2 (for Windows-preinstalled systems only) as shown in the pictures above. In general, the serial
number labels can be found on the top panel or on the side of the unit and at the rear of the unit. Keep
this number available when contacting customer service for assistance. The COA label is generally
located on the top panel or side of the unit near the serial number label.
