10xxx | Product Overviewxxx
• Operate the product only from the type of external power source indicated
on the electrical ratings label. If you are not sure of the type of power source
required, consult your service provider or local power company.
NOTE: To help avoid damaging your system, be sure the voltage selection
switch (if provided) on the power supply is set for the voltage that most closely
matches the AC power available in your location. Also be sure that your
monitor and attached devices are electrically rated to operate.
• Be sure that your monitor and attached devices are electrically rated to
operate with the power available in your location.
• Use only power cables provided with this product.
• To help prevent electric shock, plug the system and peripheral power cables
into properly grounded electrical outlets. These cables are equipped with
three-prong plugs to help ensure proper grounding. Do not use adaptor plugs
or remove the grounding prong from a cable.
• Observe extension cable and power strip ratings. Make sure that the total
ampere rating of all products plugged into the power strip does not exceed
80 percent of the ampere ratings limit for the power strip.
• To help protect your system from sudden, transient increases and decreases
in electrical power, use a surge suppressor, line conditioner, or
uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
• Position system cables and power cables carefully. Route cables so that they
cannot be stepped on or tripped over. Be sure that nothing rests on any
cables.
• Do not modify power cables or plugs. Consult a licensed electrician or your
power company for site modifications. Always follow your local/national
wiring rules.
