Power Cables
This equipment requires a 3-wire, grounded power cord. The cord length must not exceed 2.5
metres. To prevent electrical hazards, do not remove or disable the ground contact on the
power cord. Replace the power cord if it gets damaged. Contact your dealer for an exact
replacement. In Europe, the plug must be rated for 250 VAC, 10 amp minimum. In the U.S.A.
and Canada, the plug must be rated for 125 VAC, 10 amp minimum. The plug must display an
international agency approval marking. The cord must be suitable for use in your country.
Consult your dealer or the local electrical authorities if you are unsure of the type of power
cord to use in your country.
Cables
Please make sure that cables are not strained and that there is no risk of people walking or
tripping over them. Also make sure that other devices do not place stress on the cables. Make
sure that power cords are connected to a grounded electrical outlet. The power outlet should
be easily accessible and as close to the computer as possible. Do not overload any power
outlet with too many adapters.
The EMC performance of the system is guaranteed only if the cable and interface use efficient
shielding.
The use of shielded interface cable is required for USB, IEEE 1394, serial, printer, game,
analogue or digital audio/video, Ethernet LAN, PS/2, TV or FM antennas, and generally all high
speeds cable interfaces.
Only Ethernet LAN or RTC modem cables can have lengths exceeding 3 metres.
For Ethernet LAN cable, use FTP shielded cables only (Cat ≥ 5).
Heat build-up
The AC adaptor and the underside of the computer can become hot after prolonged use.
Sustained physical contact with either should be avoided.
Laser Compliance Statement
The optical devices are tested and certified to be compliant with the International Electro-
technical Commission IEC825-1 and the European Norm EN60825-1 and the EN60825-2
regulations for Class 1 laser products.
Class 1 laser products are not considered hazardous. The optical devices are designed so that
there is no risk of human exposure to laser radiation above a Class 1 level during normal
operation or prescribed maintenance conditions.
The optical devices installed in your computer are designed for use solely as components of
such electronic products and therefore do not comply with the appropriate requirements of
Code of Federal Regulation Sec. 1040.10 and Sec. 1040.11 for COMPLETE laser products.
Thunderstorm Warning
This warning is only applicable if the product you purchased has a modem and/or TV- tuner.
•
Similar precautions should be taken if you are connecting a modem or TV- tuner to the
product.
It is advisable to connect a telephone cable and/or an antenna cable to wall plugs which are
•
equipped with lightning-surge protection. If this is unavailable, then avoid connecting both
cables during thunderstorms.
Always disconnect the telephone cable and/or the antenna cable even though the product is
•
shut down or in standby mode.
