Compaq dc5000 - Microtower PC Manual

Using the Small Form Factor
Computer in a Minitower
Configuration
The Small Form Factor computer can be used in either a minitower or desktop
configuration. To use it in the minitower configuration, you must purchase a
tower stand from HP (part number 316593-001). Go to www.hp.com to order
this part.
✎Using the computer in a minitower
configuration without using the tower stand
will compromise the terms of your warranty.
Ä CAUTION: Towering this unit without the use of
the tower stand can cause the unit to overheat
and may result in damage to the computer or
data loss.
Ä CAUTION: Ensure at least 4 inches (10.2 cm)
of space on all sides of the computer remains
clear and free of obstructions.

To install the tower stand:
1. Align the hole at the base of the computer with the post and thumbscrew in
the stand 12.
2. Tighten the screw to secure the computer to the stand 3. This adds stability
and helps to ensure proper airflow to the internal components.
