1 Safety Notices
Important Safety Information
WARNING! To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the Safety & Comfort Guide. It describes proper
workstation setup, posture, and health and work habits for computer users, and provides important
electrical and mechanical safety information. This guide is located on the Web at www.hp.com/ergo and
on the Documentation CD that is included with the product.
To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment:
• Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature.
• Plug the power cord in a grounded (earthed) outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
• Disconnect power from the thin client by unplugging the power cord from the electrical outlet.
The computer may be heavy; be sure to use ergonomically correct lifting procedures when moving it.
Install the computer near an AC outlet. The AC power cord is your computer’s main AC disconnecting
device and must be easily accessible at all times. For your safety, the power cord provided with your
computer has a grounded plug. Always use the power cord with a properly grounded wall outlet, to avoid
the risk of electrical shock.
To reduce the possibility of an electric shock from the telephone network, plug your computer into the
AC outlet before connecting it to the telephone line. Also, disconnect the telephone line before
unplugging your computer from the AC power outlet.
Always disconnect the modem cord from the telephone system before installing or removing your
computer cover.
Do not operate the computer with the cover removed.
For your safety, always unplug the computer from its power source and from any telecommunications
systems (such as telephone lines), networks, or modems before performing any service procedures.
Failure to do so may result in personal injury or equipment damage. Hazardous voltage levels are inside
the power supply and modem of this product.
CAUTION: If your computer is provided with a voltage select switch for use in a 115 or 230V power
system, the voltage select switch has been pre-set to the correct voltage setting for use in the particular
country/region where it was initially sold. Changing the voltage select switch to the incorrect position
can damage your computer and void any implied warranty.
This product has not been evaluated for connection to an “IT” power system (an AC distribution system
with no direct connection to earth, according to IEC 60950).
ENWW Important Safety Information 1

Installation Conditions
See installation instructions before connecting this equipment to the input supply.
WARNING! The equipment must be provided with a proper AC protective earth (PE) ground
connection.
Energized and moving parts may be inside the computer. Disconnect power to the equipment before
removing the enclosure. Replace and secure the enclosure before re-energizing the equipment.
Battery Replacement Notice
WARNING! The product may contain an internal lithium manganese dioxide, vanadium pentoxide, or
alkaline battery or battery pack. There is risk of fire and burns if the battery pack is not handled properly.
To reduce the risk of personal injury:
• Do not attempt to recharge the battery.
• Do not expose to temperatures higher than 60° C (140° F).
• Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, or dispose of in fire or water.
• Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the
instructions.
• Replace only with the HP spare designated for this product.
For information about removing a battery, refer to your computer documentation.
HP encourages customers to recycle used electronic hardware, HP original print cartridges, and
rechargeable batteries. For more information about recycling programs, go to http://www.hp.com/
recycle.
Batteries, battery packs, and accumulators should not be disposed of together with the general household
waste. In order to forward them to recycling or proper disposal, please use the public collection system
or return them to HP, an authorized HP partner, or their agents.
The Taiwan EPA requires dry battery manufacturing or importing firms, in accordance with Article 15 of
the Waste Disposal Act, to indicate the recovery marks on the batteries used in sales, giveaways, or
promotions. Contact a qualified Taiwanese recycler for proper battery disposal.

Headset and Earphone Volume Level Notice
WARNING! Listening to music at high volume levels and for extended durations can damage one’s
hearing. To reduce the risk of hearing damage, lower the volume to a safe, comfortable level and reduce
the amount of time listening at high levels.
For your own safety, before using headsets or earphones, always reset the volume. Some headphones
are louder than other headphones, even if the volume control setting is the same.
Changing the default audio or equalizer settings might lead to higher volume and should only be done
with caution.
For your own safety, headsets or earphones used with this product should comply with the headphone
limits in EN 50332-2.
If the computer includes a headset or earphones, this combination is in compliance to EN 50332-1.

WARNING! Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified
herein or in the laser product’s installation guide may result in hazardous radiation exposure. To reduce
the risk of exposure to hazardous radiation:
• Do not try to open the module enclosure. There are no user-serviceable components inside.
• Do not operate controls, make adjustments, or perform procedures to the laser device other than those
specified herein.
• Allow only HP Authorized Service technicians to repair the unit.
CDRH Regulations
