Please read this chapter carefully and observe all listed notes.
This ensures a reliable operation and long life expectancy of your All-In-One PC.
Do not allow children to play unattended with electrical equipment. Children are
incapable of judging potential risks properly.
Keep the packing materials, such as plastic sheeting away from children. The dan-
ger of suffocation could arise in the case of misuse.
Do not open the PC casing or use the PC with the casing removed. When the casing
is open there is a danger to life from electric shock.
Optical drives are Laser Class 1 devices. These lasers must remain in their sealed PC
casing. Do not remove the drive covers, as exposure to the lasers may prove harmful.
Do not insert objects through the slots and openings of the PC. This may lead to
electric shock, electrical short-circuit or fire that will damage your PC.
Do not cover the slots and openings in the PC casing. These openings are for venti-
lation purposes. Covering these vents may lead to overheating. Please keep free a
minimum distance of 20 cm on all sides when setting up the PC.
Do not subject the device to drops of water or spray or put any containers filled
with liquid, such as vases, on the device. Liquid seeping into the device can impair
electrical safety.
Switch off your PC immediately or do not switch it on at all and contact customer
service …
… if the power cord or the connectors attached to it are burnt or damaged. Replace
the defective power cord with an original power cord. Under no circumstances may
a defective power cord be repaired.
... if the housing of the PC is damaged or fluids have leaked into it. Have the PC
checked by customer service first, because the PC may not be safely operated otherwise and there may be a life-threatening risk of electrocution!

Data Security
Attention!
Every time you update your data make back-up copies on an external storage medium. The supplier does not assume liability for data loss or damage
to data storage units, and no claims can be accepted for damages resulting
from the loss of data or consequential losses.
Connecting
Power Supply
Do not open the housing of the mains adapter. Opening the housing may cause
death by electrical shock. The housing contains no parts requiring maintenance.
The mains adapter should only be operated using earthed sockets with AC 100-
240V~, 50/60 Hz. If you are not certain of the electrical supply at the installation location, ask the power supplier.
The socket must be located near the All-In-One PC and must be easily accessible.
Use the enclosed mains adapter with the enclosed mains connection cable only.
The adapter possesses an on/off switch. If the switch is on OFF (0), no power is re-
quired and the All-In-One PC will not be supplied with power.
For additional safety, we recommend the use of an overvoltage protector, in order
to protect your All-In-One PC from damage by voltage peaks or lightning carried
through the power network.
If you wish to separate the mains adapter from the power network, first pull the
plug out of the socket und then pull the plug on the All-In-One PC. Pulling the
plugs in the wrong order may damage the mains adapter or the All-In-One PC.
When pulling the plug, hold the plug itself. Never pull on the cord.
Note
Be sure to shut down the All-In-One PC properly before separating it from
the power or turning it off.
Cabling
Please follow the instructions below in order to correctly connect your PC:
Arrange cables in such a way that no one can tread on or trip over them.
Do not place objects on the cables.
- 4 -
Operational Safety
Do not allow any large forces to be exerted on the plug-in connections, from the
side, for example. This will otherwise lead to damage to and in your device.
Do not exert any force when connecting cables and plugs and pay attention to the
correct orientation of each plug.
Pull the connection at the plug, not at the cable, of you are detaching a connection
cable from your device.
Avoid short circuits and cable breaks by not squeezing the cable or bending it
sharply.
To avoid damage to your PC, connect your peripherals (e.g., keyboard, mouse and
monitor) whilst your PC is powered off. Some devices can be connected whilst your
PC is in use. These devices usually have a USB connector. Please follow the appropriate instructions for each device.
Keep the PC at least one meter (approximately three feet) away from high fre-
quency and magnetic interference sources (e.g., televisions, loudspeaker cabinets,
mobile telephones, etc.) in order to avoid malfunctions and/or loss of data.
Please note that only shielded cables shorter than 3 meters (9.84 ft) should be used
for the external interfaces. Please only use double screened cables for printer cables.
Do not replace the cables supplied with the machine by any others. Use the cables
belonging to the scope of the delivery exclusively, because they will have been
tested extensively in our laboratories.
Also only use the connection cable supplied with the devices for the connection of
your peripheral devices.
Make sure that all connection cables have been connected to the peripheral devices
associated with them, in order to avoid disruptive radiation. Remove unneeded cables.
The connection of devices is limited to equipment that complies with EN60950
“Safety of information technology equipment” or EN60065 “Audio, video and similar electronic apparatus. Safety requirements”.
In the first hours of operation, new devices may emit a typical, unavoidable but
completely harmless smell, which will decline increasingly in the course of time.
We recommend that you ventilate the room regularly, in order to counteract the
formation of the smell. During the development of this product, we have made
sure that the applicable limits are clearly decreased.

Setting Up of the All-In-One PC
Installing the device
Unfold the foot on the back of
the device.
You can position the foot in
progressive angles, so that the
monitor can be installed with
various degrees of slant.
Set-up Location
Keep your PC and all units connected to it away from moisture, dust, heat and di-
rect sunlight. Failure to observe these instructions can lead to malfunctions or damage to the PC.
To prevent damage to your PC from a fall, place and operate the PC and all con-
nected units on a stable, balanced and vibration-free surface.

Setting Up of the All-In-One PC
Ambient Temperature
The PC can be operated at an ambient temperature of between 10° and 35°C
(+41° and +95°F) and at a relative humidity of between 30% and 70% (without
condensation).
When powered off, the PC can be stored at temperatures between -20° and 50°C
(–40° and +158°F).
Unplug the cable during thunderstorms and make especially sure to remove the an-
tenna cables, if present. We recommend the use of a surge protector for additional
safety, in order to protect your PC from being damaged by power peaks or lightning strikes through the power network.
Delay operating a PC after transport until the device has adjusted to the ambient
temperature. In situations of large temperature or humidity differences condensation may build up moisture inside the PC, which might cause an electrical short circuit.
Ergonomics
Note
Ensure that the monitor is set up in such a way that reflections, glare and
light/darkness contrast are avoided.
You should not position the monitor in close proximity to a window as this is usually the
brightest area of the room and may cause visual impairments during daylight hours.
Always position the monitor in a line of sight that runs parallel to the window front (see
picture).
You should also apply a parallel line of sight with respect to artificial lighting. This means
that in a room lit by artificial light essentially the same criteria and objectives apply. Should
it not be possible to arrange the monitor as outlined above, the following measures might
be helpful:
Turn, lower or incline the monitor.
Place horizontal or vertical shades at the windows.
Work in Comfort
Safety Connecting Operation Help Appendix
Note
Take regular breaks from the work at your screen to prevent tenseness and

Getting Started
The software on this PC comes fully pre-installed. You do not have to load any of the
CD's/DVD’s supplied.
With many programs (e.g., telephone-CD's or encyclopaedias), however, it is necessary to
insert the corresponding CD/DVD in order to call up the data which is stored on it. The
software will ask you to do this as necessary. Once you have made all the connections and
secured the necessary connectors you can turn on the monitor, the other peripherals and
finally the PC itself.
Step 1: Inserting batteries in keyboard
The keyboard requires two alkaline batteries (LR6/AA, 1,5V).
1. Turn the keyboard over and open the battery compartment.
2. Insert two batteries (LR6/AA, 1,5V). Ensure that the polarity corresponds to the illustration (+ must correspond with + and – with –).
3. Shut the battery compartment.
Note
The operation of the keyboard is described on page 31.
Step 2: Connecting the keyboard and power on
1. Connect the USB receiver to a USB connection of your All-In-One PC.
2. Set the switch under the keyboard to ON.
Important!
Switch the keyboard off by means of the on/off switch, if you will not be using it for a longer period, to avoid the unnecessary consumption of the batteries.
Step 3: Power on
1. Connect the mains adapter supplied to the All-In-One PC.
Then, connect the mains cable to the adapter and connect it subsequently to a
socket.
2. Press the on/off switch on the front once, to switch on your All-In-One PC.
- 18 -
Getting Started
The On-/ Off switch function can be programmed in the Windows® Control Panel,Power
Options, Hardware and Sound (please refer to on-line help). The PC will always be
switched off, if the main switch is pressed for more than 4 seconds.
Warning!
If the operating system is not shut down properly (through
), then there is a risk of data loss.
Step 4: Starting Initial Setup
The PC starts and now goes through a number of phases:
Note
Ensure that there is no bootable CD (e.g. the Recovery-CD) in the CD-ROM
drive. Such disks will prevent the operating system from loading directly off
the hard drive.
The operating system is loaded from the hard disk. During the initial set-up, the loading
process takes slightly longer than normal to register the operating system and the individual components completely. Your operating system is finished loading when a welcome
screen is shown on your display.
Follow the instructions on the screen. Dialogue boxes will explain any steps that need to
be taken. The greeting procedure will guide you through the following screens and dialogues.
