quid, such as vases, on or next to the product. Penetration by liquids may impair
electrical safety.
• Do not place any objects on the cables to avoid damaging them.

Customer service
What to do in case of malfunctions
Find the cause
• Malfunctions often occur for the simplest of reasons, but some are complex and re-
quire intricate analysis.
• Check cables and connections
• Start with a thorough visual check of all the cable connections. Make sure that the
computer and all the peripheral equipment are duly connected to the power sup-
ply.
• Switch the computer off and check all the cable connections. If the computer is
connected to peripheral equipment, check the connections of all these cables as
well. Do not randomly switch cables for different units even if they look exactly the
same. The pole assignments in the cable may be different. When you are certain
that there are no faults with the power supply and that all the connections are in-
tact, switch the computer on again.
Faults and possible causes
The graphics pad is not being detected or is not receiving a response.
• Have you connected the cables as instructed in the installation directions?
• Please check all the cable connections.
• Did you restart the computer after the installation process?
Note on the USB device connection to a USB 1.1. port in Windows XP:
• The operating system will display the message that a high-speed USB device is con-
nected to a non-high-speed USB hub. This is not an error message but merely a
note that the speed will be adjusted because of the slower USB 1.1 connection.
Technical support
The product has been thoroughly tested in our laboratories and has passed tests on a
wide variety of equipment.
However, the drivers will need to be updated from time to time. This is because the-
re may be compatibility problems with other components which have not been tested
(programs, devices).
You will find the driver updates and the latest information on the product on the fol-
lowing website: www.medion.com

Repair and Refurbished Goods
or Parts Notice
Unfortunately, from time to time, faulty products are manufactured which need to be
returned to the Supplier for repair.
Please be aware that if your product is capable of retaining user-generated data (such
as files stored on a computer hard drive, telephone numbers stored on a mobile tele-
phone, songs stored on a portable media player, games saved on a games console or
files stored on a USB memory stick) during the process of repair, some or all of your
stored data may be lost. We recommend you save this data elsewhere prior to sending
the product for repair.
You should also be aware that rather than repairing goods, we may replace them with
refurbished goods of the same type or use refurbished parts in the repair process.
Please be assured though, refurbished parts or replacements are only used where they
meet ALDI’s stringent quality specifications.
If at any time you feel your repair is being handled unsatisfactorily, you may escalate
your complaint. Please telephone us on 1 300 884 987 or write to us at:
