5.1.3.1. Mechanical Inspection and Cleaning

It is recommended to take the following precautions to get the best performance from the system:

Do not carry out any dust-producing work in the room housing the CORTEX CRT Quantum. Clean the
air filters regularly to avoid electronic components overheating.

Use only alcohol or a water-based cleaner on the front and rear panels of equipment. Other solvents
may damage the keys, LCD and markings.

Perform a regular operating check on the fan units (check for any abnormal temperature rise, check the
air flow at the air exhaust). The system is not designed for permanent operation without ventilation.

5.1.3.2. Handling Precautions

SOME OF THE HARDWARE COMPONENTS USE CMOS TECHNOLOGY AND CAN BE DAMAGED
BY ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE FROM YOUR CLOTHES OR BODY. ALWAYS USE AN ANTI-STATIC BRACELET WHEN
WORKING ON THE CORTEX CRT QUANTUM TO REPLACE A BOARD OR COMPONENT.

Never remove a board from the CORTEX CRT Quantum without switching it off first and removing
the power cord!

When a module has been removed from the chassis, it is essential to handle and store it with care. It is
particularly important to ensure it is not exposed to electrostatic shocks.

Certain precautions must also be taken when reinstalling a board in the chassis: when plugging the
board into the PCI Express bus connectors, never force it; screw the board strip attaching screws back
into the frame; reinstall the connector locking screws. Only then may the CORTEX CRT Quantum be
switched back on.

To avoid damaging the equipment, never grab the chassis by the front panel cover plate.

The keyboard and peripheral drawers must be locked during transportation.

Take extreme care when handling the chassis with the peripheral and/or keyboard drawer(s) unlocked.

Do not lift up the keyboard drawer while opening or closing it.
