We thank you for purchasing the Fujitsu DESKPOWER 6000/SS personal computer.
The DESKPOWER 6000/SS is a desktop-type personal computer with a space-saving design.
This manual explains how to use the hardware of the DESKPOWER 6000/SS.
Please read this manual carefully to ensure correct use of the PC.
This unit may malfunction if the power source is interrupted suddenly, for example, due to
lightning. Fujitsu recommends the use of an AC non-interruptible power supply unit.
(Based on guidelines for the prevention of sudden voltage interruptions by Japan Electronic
Industry Development Association (JEIDA).
This unit is class B information technology equipment based on the Voluntary Control Council
for Interference (VCCI) standard by Information Technology Equipment and may create
interference if used near radio or television receivers.
Use the unit in accordance with information provided in the manual.
This unit conforms to the Personal Computer Industry Standard (PC-11-1988) of the Japan
Electronic Industry Development Association (JEIDA).
This unit conforms to the harmonic guideline.

Preventing electromagnetic interference with a TV or radio
○○○○○○
Your PC complies with the VCCI Standard restricting electromagnetic interference with a
TV or radio. However, the computer may interfere with a TV or radio depending on the
installation location.
To prevent the PC from interfering with TV or radio reception, note the following:
● Precautions to be taken by the PC user
- Do not use the PC with the cover removed.
- Use the specified cable to connect the PC with a peripheral. Do not use an unauthorized
cable.
- After installing a cable, ensure that the connector is firmly attached and the screws
(if any) are tight.
- Do not plug the PC in the same outlet as a TV or radio.
● Precautions to be taken by the TV or radio
- Do not place a TV or radio near the PC.
- Position TV or radio antennas in such a way that interference is minimized.
- Stay away the antenna line of a TV or radio near from the PC.
- Use coaxial cables as antenna feeders.
If interference with TV or radio reception continues after switching off the PC and
peripherals, check the above items again.
If interference continues, contact Fujitsu or the shop from which your PC or peripheral was
purchased.

shown on the right. A hard disk can save more data
and can read and write data faster than is possible
with floppy disks.
Handling precautions
○○○○○○○○
To prevent malfunctions, note the following precautions regarding hard disks:
- Do not move or subject the PC to shock and/or vibration with its power on.
- Do not expose to extreme temperature changes.
- Do not place in areas exposed to direct sunlight or near heating units.
- Do not store in areas subjected to shock or vibration.
- Do not store in damp or dusty areas.
- Do not expose to a strong magnetic field.
- Do not disassemble or remodel.
- Do not get wet.
Point
- Because incorrect handling may destroy data in a hard disk, back up all necessary data.
- Because there is a difference in the storage capacity of same-type hard disks, back up data
for each file or segment, not for each hard disk.

Introduction
The features and performance of your PC can be upgraded by installing options. This
section explains the types of internal options that can be installed in the PC and how to
remove the upper cover in preparation for installing the internal options.
Handling precautions
○○○○○○
Note the following when installing internal options:
- Before starting operation, switch off the PC and all connected peripherals and unplug
power cords from respective outlets.
- Immediately after the PC is turned off, internal components and units of the PC are hot.
When installing and removing internal options, turn off the power and allow the PC to
cool down for about 10 minutes before starting operation.
- Do not disassemble the power supply unit (a box-shaped device inside the PC).
- Do not damage or remodel internal cables or units.
- Because internal options are PC boards with exposed soldered sections that may be
damaged by a static electrical charge, discharge any accumulated static electricity
before handling.
- Secure the board by the metal bracket portions or an edge of the PC board such that the
surface of the PC board and the soldered sections are not handled.
- Installation and disassembly of options other than Fujitsu brand products void the
warranty.
