Safety information

Electrical safety

•

To prevent electrical shock hazard, disconnect the power cable from

the electrical outlet before relocating the system.

•

When adding or removing devices to or from the system, ensure that

the power cables for the devices are unplugged before the signal cables

are connected. If possible, disconnect all power cables from the existing

system before you add a device.

•

Before connecting or removing signal cables from the motherboard,

ensure that all power cables are unplugged.

•

Seek professional assistance before using an adapter or extension cord.

These devices could interrupt the grounding circuit.

•

Make sure that your power supply is set to the correct voltage in your

area. If you are not sure about the voltage of the electrical outlet you

are using, contact your local power company.

•

If the power supply is broken, do not try to fix it by yourself. Contact a

qualified service technician or your retailer.

Operation safety

•

Before installing the motherboard and adding devices on it, carefully

read all the manuals that came with the package.

•

Before using the product, make sure all cables are correctly connected

and the power cables are not damaged. If you detect any damage,

contact your dealer immediately.

•

To avoid short circuits, keep paper clips, screws, and staples away from

connectors, slots, sockets and circuitry.

•

Avoid dust, humidity, and temperature extremes. Do not place the

product in any area where it may become wet.

•

Place the product on a stable surface.

•

If you encounter technical problems with the product, contact a

qualified service technician or your retailer.

The symbol of the crossed out wheeled bin indicates that the product

(electrical and electronic equipment) should not be placed in municipal

waste. Please check local regulations for disposal of electronic products.
