WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock and damage to the equipment:

a Do not disable any 3-prong grounding plug. The grounding pin on a 3-prong plug is an important safety feature. Removal of the grounding pin increases the risk of computer damage. If you cannot fit the plug into your electrical outlet, contact an electrician for information on having grounded outlets installed.

Use only grounded electrical outlets when plugging in your computer. These outlets should be easily accessible at all times.

When connecting a power cord to a grounded electrical outlet, ensure that nothing rests on the power cord.

To reduce the risk of electrical shock and damage to the computer, BEFORE

REMOVING THE COVER always ensure the following:

x The computer is turned off.

x The computer power cord is unplugged.

x The modem line is disconnected from the telephone jack.

x All network cables are disconnected.

x All cables and power cords are disconnected from the computer.

CAUTION: To prevent damage to the computer by electrostatic discharge, you must

`become static-free before removing the cover. To become static-free, touch an unpainted metal surface or one of the screws on the computer cover. As you work, avoid touching exposed metal on any of the computer circuit boards.
