Safety and Maintenance
You can use your MCA under a wide range of environmental
conditions. However, to ensure long use and continued high
performance, consider the following factors when setting up your
MCA:

and in the Windows Help program.
•The first time you use your MCA, we recommend that you
carefully read the Making Connections section of this manual
and initialize the battery to ensure optimum battery performance.
•Unplug the MCA from the power outlet before cleaning. Use a
damp cloth for cleaning. Do not use aerosols, solvents, or strong
detergents.
•Slots and openings in the system cabinet are for ventilation
purposes. Do not block or cover these openings or the system
could overheat. Do not use or store the MCA near a source of
heat or dust.
•On the base or rear panel of this MCA, there is a label with
information on the power requirements of this system. These

• If you use the MCA with an extension cord, ensure that the total
ampere ratings of all the devices sharing the extension do not
exceed the rating of the extension cord or the rating of the wall
outlet.
•Never push foreign objects into the MCA through any of the slots
or openings. Dangerous voltages are present, which could cause
electric shock or fire, or damage sensitive components.
