page 6 - 1 in the User’s Manual. You may also find the notes marked with a

Beginners and Not-So-Advanced Users
If you are new to computers (or do not have an advanced knowledge of them) then
the information contained in this Quick Start Guide should be enough to get you up

detailed descriptions of the functions, setup and system controls are covered in the
remainder of the User’s Manual), but do not worry if you do not understand every-
thing the first time. Keep this manual nearby and refer to it to learn as you go. You
may find it useful to refer to the notes marked with a
 as indicated in the margin.
For a more detailed description of any of the interface ports and jacks see “Interface
(Ports & Jacks)” on page A - 1.
