General Cleaning Tips

You may need the following precautions before you begin to clean the de­vice. When you clean any single part or component for the device, please
thoroughly read and understand the details below.

1. We strongly recommended that you should shut down the system before
you start to clean any single components.

2. When you need to clean the device, please rub it with a piece of dry cloth.

3. Be cautious of the tiny removable components when you use a vacuum

cleaner to absorb the dirt on the oor.

4. Never drop the components inside the device or get circuit board damp or
wet.

5. Be cautious of all kinds of cleaning solvents or chemicals when you use it
for the sake of cleaning. Some individuals may be allergic to the ingredi­ents.

6. Try not to put any food, drink or cigarette around the device.

Cleaning Tools:

Although many companies have created products to help improve the process
of cleaning your devices and peripherals, users can also use household items
to clean their devices and peripherals. Below is a listing of items you may
need or want to use while cleaning your devices or peripherals. Keep in mind
that some components in your device may only be able to be cleaned using
a product designed for cleaning that component, if this is the case it will be
mentioned in the cleaning.

• Cloth: A piece of cloth is the best tool to use when rubbing up a compo-

nent. Although paper towels or tissues can be used on most hardware as well,
we still recommend you to rub it with a piece of cloth.

• Water or rubbing alcohol: You may moisten a piece of cloth a bit with some

water or rubbing alcohol and rub it on the device. Unknown solvents may be
harmful to the plastics parts.

17. The sound pressure level at the operator’s position, according to

IEC 704-1:1982, is no more than 70dB(A).

18. Keep this User’s Manual for later reference.

19. DO NOT LEAVE THIS EQUIPMENT IN AN UNCONTROLLED

ENVIRONMENT WHERE THE STORAGE TEMPERATURE IS BELOW

-20° C (-4° F) OR ABOVE 60° C (140° F). THIS MAY DAMAGE THE
EQUIPMENT.

Disposing of Your Old Product

•

Within the European Union

EU-wide legislation, as implemented in each Member State,
requires that waste electrical and electronic products carrying the
mark (left) must be disposed of separately from normal household

waste.
This includes monitors and electrical accessories, such as signal cables or
power cords. When you need to dispose of your display products, please
follow the guidance of your local authority, or ask the shop where you
purchased the product, or if applicable, follow any agreements made between
yourself. The mark on electrical and electronic products only applies to the
current European Union Member States.

• Outside the European Union

If you wish to dispose of used electrical and electronic products outside the
European Union, please contact your local authority so as to comply with the
correct disposal method.

• Vacuum cleaner: Absorb the dust, dirt, hair, cigarette particles, and other

particles out of the device can be one of the best cleaning methods. Over time,

these items can restrict the airow in a device and cause circuitry to corrode.

• Cotton swabs: Cotton swaps moistened with rubbing alcohol or water are

excellent tools for wiping hard to reach areas in your keyboard, mouse, and
other locations.

• Foam swabs: Whenever possible, it is better to use lint-free swabs such

as foam swabs.

We recommend you to follow the cleaning steps:

1. Close all application programs

2. Close operating software

3. Turn off power switch

4. Remove all peripherals

5. Pull out power cable
