2Setting up your computer
WARNING! To reduce the risk of electrical shock or damage to your
equipment:
• Place the computer in a location away from water, dust, moisture, and soot.
These can increase the inside temperature, or can cause fire or electrocution.
• Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an
important safety feature.
• Plug the power cord in a grounded (earthed) outlet that is easily accessible at all
times.
• Disconnect power from the equipment by unplugging the power cord from the
electrical outlet. To prevent direct exposure to laser beam, do not try to open the
enclosure of the CD or DVD drives.
• The power supply is preset for the country/region in which you purchased your
computer. If you move, check the voltage requirements for your new location
before plugging the computer into an AC power outlet.
The computer may be heavy; be sure to use ergonomically correct lifting
procedures when moving the computer.
To reduce the risk of serious injury read the Safety & Comfort Guide. The guide is

power surge protection device that is specifically labeled as having surge
protection, an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), or a similar device. If the
