■Setting Up the PC
CAUTION
When installing your PC, give consideration to the recommendations and safety notes.
SetupthePConlyinitscorrectorientation.Thepointstoobserveareillustratedonthefollowing
pages.
DonotexposethePCtoextremeenvironmentalconditionsandprotectitfromdust,humidityand

WheninstallingthePC,providesufficientclearancearoundthePC,asindicatedinthe“Technical
data” chapter to ensure adequate ventilation. In order to avoid overheating, do not cover the
ventilation area of the monitor or the PC.
Do not place several system units one above the other.
ThePC canbeused eitherhorizontally or vertically.We recommendthat you placeyour equipment
on a surface with good anti-slip qualities. In view of the multitude of different finishes and varnishes
used on furniture, it is possible that the rubber / plastic feet of the devices will mark the surface they
stand on.
Vertical operating position
The vertical operating position is only permissible with base feet. The base feet secure the device
against tipping over.
CAUTION
The set-up direction is specified. The ON/OFF switch must be at the top to ensure sufficient
ventilation.

Proceed as follows to prepare the PC for the vertical operating position:
1. Ifyou havealready operatedthe PC,switch itoff anddisconnect allcables fromthe casing.
2. Assemble the base feet in the direction of the arrow.
3. Place the casing on the right side so that the On/Off switch is at the bottom.
4. Fit the base feet with the screws included (1) (one screw per foot and hole).
5. Place the unit on the base feet and reconnect any cables disconnected previously.
