Degree of danger Damage to persons Damage to property Immediate threat of danger;possible consequences: death or life-threatening injury. × / 22 Use with: × Potentially dangerous situation; possible consequences: light or moderate injury. × Potentially harmful situation; possible consequences: the product or anything nearby may be damaged.
Before Initial Operation Contents Before you begin the installation of your PC, make sure that you have all the parts. If anything is missing from the listed and illustrated packing list, please contact your dealer immediately.
Data storage media When you save data to your PC’s hard disk or to a floppy disk, it is stored as magnetic information on the medium. Make sure that data is not damaged by magnetic or electromagnetic fields. Avoid jarring Because the electronics in your computer can be damaged by jarring, no mechanical devices should be placed on the same surface as the PC. This is especially important for impact printers whose vibrations could damage the hard disk.
The PC in Detail Elements of the PC All components necessary to operate your PC system are located on the front panel. Front Panel Components 1. Eject button for optical media. 2. Card reader (depending on the system configuration for 3 or 4 different kinds of memory cards). 3. Front USB port. USB peripheral devices can be connected here. 4. Optical drive (depending on the system configuration, e.g., DVD+/-RW or CD-RW). 5. On/Off button with power LED. This button has several functions: a.
The Rear View The ports on the rear side of the workstation can vary slightly depending on the system configuration. Because of the wide product range, the usual ports are shown here. 1. IEEE 1394. Depending on the system configuration, the IEEE 1394 can be used as a high-speed I/O port for transferring data in real time (e.g., from a digital camera). 2. Modem port. Depending on the configuration, the system may include a built-in 56K modem that can be connected to the telephone network using this port. 3.
Connecting the Monitor Carefully insert the connection cable into the suitable port to avoid damaging the plug or socket. Any monitor which complies with the VGA graphics standard can be connected to your workstation. The monitor connector is located on the rear side of your PC. If you use an old monitor, make sure to compare the technical details of the monitor with the integrated graphics component.
Connecting Peripheral Devices On the rear side of the computer you will find the USB port for connecting a USB keyboard, mouse or other USB peripherals (e.g., printers, scanners or digital cameras). Just plug the device into a free USB port. / 28 Please make sure to read the manual before attempting to connect the printer. For example, you may first need to install the drivers.
Connecting the Power Adapter and the Power Cable The PC has a power adapter which can be operated with 100–240 V AC. Connect the power adapter using the attached cable with the appropriate socket on the PC. Then plug one end of the power cable into the external power adapter socket and the other end into an appropriate earthed wall outlet. The external power adapter as well as the power cable are specially designed to suit the FAVORIT PC.
Switching the PC On Before starting the computer, you should switch on the monitor, printer, modem etc. This ensures that the operating system recognizes the connected devices and integrates them accordingly. Turn on your PC by briefly pressing the ON/OFF button on the front. The PC carries out an internal self-test. If errors are detected during this test, these are displayed on the screen if possible. After successful completion of the PC self-test, the operating system (if installed) is started.
Switching the System Off The switch off procedure of the system depends on its operating system. Some operating systems shut down the PC completely and switch it off. If your OS does not support this function, please press and hold the ON/OFF switch for longer than 4 seconds in order to switch the system off. In case you are not going to use the system for an extended period, please unplug the power cable at the back of your system.
