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 unauthorised 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 unauthorised 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
peripheral or host devices. Failure to do so may violate FCC and ICES rules.

Please take note of the safety information in the "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 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
● Switching the device on
You will learn more about the individual steps in the following sections.
External devices
i
If you have received other devices in addition to your device (e.g. a printer or a modem),
do not connect these until after the initial installation. The following sections contain a
description of how to connect these external devices.
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 "System
expansions" chapter.
A26361-K1008-Z120-1-7619, edition 1 7
Setting up the device
When installing your device, give consideration to the 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 feet of the device 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.
When installing the workstation, provide sufficient clearance around the device, as
indicated in the "Technical data" chapter to ensure adequate ventilation. 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.

Information about boards
Take care with the locking mechanisms (catches and centring pins) when you are replacing boards
or components on boards.
To prevent damage to the board or the components and conductors on it, please take care when you
insert or remove boards. Make sure expansion boards are inserted straightly.
Never use sharp objects (screwdrivers) for leverage.
Boards with electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) are identifiable by the label
shown.
When you handle boards fitted with ESDs, you must, under all
circumstances, observe the following points:
●You must always discharge static build up (e.g. by touching a
grounded object) before working.
● The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges.
● Always hold boards with ESDs by their edges.
● Never touch pins or conductors on boards fitted with ESDs.
