2 Setting up your computer WARNING! To reduce the risk of electrical shock or damage to your equipment: • Place the computer in a location away from water, dust, moisture, and soot. These can increase the inside temperature, or can cause fire or electrocution. • Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature. • Plug the power cord in a grounded (earthed) outlet that is easily accessible at all times. • Disconnect power from the equipment by unplugging the power cord from the electrical outlet. To prevent direct exposure to laser beam, do not try to open the enclosure of the CD or DVD drives. • The power supply is preset for the country/region in which you purchased your computer. If you move, check the voltage requirements for your new location before plugging the computer into an AC power outlet. The computer may be heavy; be sure to use ergonomically correct lifting procedures when moving the computer. To reduce the risk of serious injury read the Safety & Comfort Guide. The guide is located on the web at http://www.hp.com/ergo. 1. Place the computer so that all ventilation openings are unobstructed and cabling is not in a walkway or where it can be stepped on or damaged by placing furniture on it. 2. Connect all power cords from the monitor, computer, and accessories to a power surge protection device that is 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 surge protection device, and then connect the device to the computer. 3. Download and install operating system updates. 3
