The surface is conductive; such touching can cause personal injury and machine damage. v Do not service the following parts with the power on when they are removed from their normal operating places in a machine: - Power supply units - Pumps - Blowers and fans - Motor generators and similar units. (This practice ensures correct grounding of the units.) v If an electrical accident occurs: - Use caution; do not become a victim yourself. - Switch off power. - Send another person to get medical aid. Voltage-selection switch Some computers are equipped with a voltage-selection switch located near the power-cord connection point on the computer. If your computer has a voltage-selection switch, ensure that you set the switch to match the voltage available at your electrical outlet. Setting the voltage-selection switch incorrectly can cause permanent damage to the computer. If your computer does not have a voltage-selection switch, your computer is designed to operate only at the voltage provided in the country or region where the computer was originally purchased. If you relocate your computer to another country, be aware of the following: v If your computer does not have a voltage-selection switch, do not connect the computer to an electrical outlet until you have verified that the voltage provided is the same as it was in the country or region where the computer was originally purchased. v If your computer has a voltage selection switch, do not connect the computer to an electrical outlet until you have verified that the voltage-selection switch is set to match the voltage provided in that country or region. If you are not sure of the voltage provided at your electrical outlet, contact your local electric company or refer to official Web sites or other literature for travelers to the country or region where you are located.
