Safety Precautions

Before getting started, please read the following important safety precautions.

1.The PANEL1173-841 Series does not come equipped with an operating system. An operating system must be loaded first before installing any software into the computer.

2.Be sure to ground yourself to prevent static charge when installing the internal components. Use a grounding wrist strap and place all electronic components in any static- shielded devices. Most electronic components are sensitive to static electrical charge.

3.Disconnect the power cord from the PANEL1173-841 Series before any installation. Be sure both the system and external devices are turned OFF. A sudden surge of power could ruin sensitive components that the PANEL1173-841 Series must be properly grounded.

4.The brightness of the flat panel display will be getting weaker as a result of frequent usage. However, the operating period varies depending on the application environment.

5.Turn OFF the system power before cleaning. Clean the system using a cloth only. Do not spray any liquid cleaner directly onto the screen. The PANEL1173-841 Series may come with or w/o a touchscreen. Although the touchscreen is chemical resistant, it is recommended that you spray the liquid cleaner on a cloth first before wiping the screen. In case your system comes without the touchscreen, you must follow the same procedure and not spray any cleaner on the flat panel directly.

6.Avoid using sharp objects to operate the touchscreen. Scratches on the touchscreen may cause malfunction or internal failure to the touchscreen.

7.The flat panel display is not susceptible to shock or vibration. When assembling the PANEL1173-841 Series, make sure it is securely installed.

8.Do not open the system’s back cover. If opening the cover for maintenance is a must, only a trained technician is allowed to do so. Integrated circuits on computer boards are sensitive to static electricity. To avoid damaging chips from electrostatic discharge, observe the following precautions:
