E Workstation operating guidelines, routine care and shipping preparation Workstation operating guidelines and routine care Follow these guidelines to properly set up and care for the workstation and monitor: ● Keep the workstation away from excessive moisture, direct sunlight, and extremes of heat and cold. ● Operate the workstation on a sturdy, level surface. Leave a 10.2-cm (4-inch) clearance on all vented sides of the workstation and above the monitor to permit the required airflow. ● Never restrict the airflow into the workstation by blocking any vents or air intakes. Do not place the keyboard, with the keyboard feet down, directly against the front of the desktop unit as this also restricts airflow. ● Never operate the workstation with the cover or side panel removed. ● Do not stack workstations on top of each other or place workstations so near each other that they are subject to each other's re-circulated or preheated air. ● If the workstation is to be operated within a separate enclosure, intake and exhaust ventilation must be provided on the enclosure, and the same operating guidelines listed above will still apply. ● Keep liquids away from the workstation and keyboard. ● Never cover the ventilation slots on the monitor with any type of material. ● Install or enable power management functions of the operating system or other software, including sleep states. ● Turn off the workstation before you do either of the following: ◦ Wipe the exterior of the workstation with a soft, damp cloth as needed. Using cleaning products may discolor or damage the finish. ◦ Occasionally clean the air vents on all vented sides of the workstation. Lint, dust, and other foreign matter can block the vents and limit the airflow. ENWW Workstation operating guidelines and routine care 43

Workstation operating guidelines and routine care
Follow these guidelines to properly set up and care for the workstation and monitor:
Keep the workstation away from excessive moisture, direct sunlight, and extremes of heat and cold.
Operate the workstation on a sturdy, level surface. Leave a 10.2-cm (4-inch) clearance on all vented
sides of the workstation and above the monitor to permit the required airflow.
Never restrict the airflow into the workstation by blocking any vents or air intakes. Do not place the
keyboard, with the keyboard feet down, directly against the front of the desktop unit as this also
restricts airflow.
Never operate the workstation with the cover or side panel removed.
Do not stack workstations on top of each other or place workstations so near each other that they
are subject to each other’s re-circulated or preheated air.
If the workstation is to be operated within a separate enclosure, intake and exhaust ventilation must
be provided on the enclosure, and the same operating guidelines listed above will still apply.
Keep liquids away from the workstation and keyboard.
Never cover the ventilation slots on the monitor with any type of material.
Install or enable power management functions of the operating system or other software, including
sleep states.
Turn off the workstation before you do either of the following:
Wipe the exterior of the workstation with a soft, damp cloth as needed. Using cleaning products
may discolor or damage the finish.
Occasionally clean the air vents on all vented sides of the workstation. Lint, dust, and other
foreign matter can block the vents and limit the airflow.
