￿Protect the monitor, computer, and connected accessories by connecting all power cords to a power surge protection device. Use a power strip specifically labeled as having surge protection, an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), or a similar device.

If the computer has a television tuner, or a modem or telephone connection, protect the computer by using surge protection with these signal inputs as well. Connect the television cable or the telephone line cord to the inputs and outputs of the surge protection device and then to the computer.

￿Look in the computer box for additional printed details or updates regarding your computer.
