FCC Class B Compliance Statement

The following statement applies to the products covered in this manual, unless otherwise specified
herein. The statement for other products will appear in the accompanying documentation.

NOTE:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a "Class B" digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules and meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference­Causing Equipment Standard ICES-003 for digital apparatus. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in strict
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:

● Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

● Increase the separation between equipment and the receiver.

● Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is

connected.

● Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Fujitsu Siemens Computers GmbH is not responsible for any radio or television interference caused
by unauthorized modifications of this equipment or the substitution or attachment of connecting
cables and equipment other than those specified by Fujitsu Siemens Computers GmbH. The
correction of interferences caused by such unauthorized modification, substitution or attachment will
be the responsibility of the user.

The use of shielded I/O cables is required when connecting this equipment to any and all optional

Important notes" chapter.

Unpacking and checking the delivery

It is recommended not to throw away the original packaging material! It may be required for
reshipment at some later date.

► Unpack all the individual parts.

► Check the delivery for damage incurred during transportation.

► Check whether the delivery agrees with the details in the delivery note.

► Should you discover that the delivery does not correspond to the delivery note, notify your local

sales outlet immediately.

Steps for initial setup

Only a few steps are necessary to put your new device into operation for the first time:

– Select a location for device and set up device

– Connect the monitor, mouse and keyboard

– Check the voltage at the mains outlet and connect the device to an electrical outlet

– Switch the device on

You will learn more about the individual steps in the following sections.

Drives and boards

If you have received drives or boards with your device, please do not install them until
after first-time setup. How to install drives and boards is described in the "

i

upgrades

" chapter.

Preparing for use

Setting up the device

When installing your device, please read the recommendations and safety notes in the
"Safety" manual.

!

Set up the device only in its correct orientation (vertical position).

We recommend that you place your device on a surface with good anti-slip qualities. In
view of the multitude of different finishes and varnishes used on furniture, it is possible that
the rubber feet will mark the surface they stand on.

Do not expose the device to extreme environmental conditions (see "Technical data").
Protect the device from dust, humidity, and heat.

Make sure that the device is adequately ventilated. In order to avoid overheating, do not
cover the ventilation area of the monitor or the device.

Do not stack several devices on top of each other.

Depending on the location of your device, bothersome vibrations and noises may occur.
To prevent this, a distance of at least 3 mm should be maintained from other devices on
casing sides without ventilation surfaces. In addition, we recommend placing the device on
support feet, as these buffer vibrations.

The indicator lights up when the hard disk drive of the device is accessed.

Power-on indicator

● The indicator lights up green:
The device is switched on.

● The display illuminates in orange or flashes green (depending on the type of device):
The device is in energy-saving mode. After being switched on with the power button, the device
switches on or returns to the state it was in before the energy-saving mode.

Preparing for use

Switching on for the first time: installing the software

If the device is integrated into a network, the user and server details as well as the network protocol
are required during the software installation. Contact your network administrator if you have any
questions about these settings.

When you switch on the device for the first time, the supplied software is installed and configured.
Plan a reasonable amount of time for this, as this process must not be interrupted.

You may need the licence number for Windows during the installation. The licence number is located
on a sticker on your device.

Once the installation has been started the device must not be switched off, unless the
installation has been completed.

!

During installation, the device may only be rebooted when you are requested to do so!

The installation will otherwise not be carried out correctly and the contents of the hard disk
must be completely restored.
