Safety information
Use only the AC/DC adapter model:
AD891M21010ALF&AD891M21210ALF
• Before setting up the box, carefully read all the documentation that
came with the package.
• To prevent fire or shock hazard, never expose the zero client to rain or
moisture.
• Never try to open the zero client cabinet. The dangerous high voltages
inside the zero client may result in serious physical injury.
• If the power supply is broken, do not try to fix it by yourself. Contact a
qualified service technician or your retailer.
• Before using the product, make sure all cables are correctly connected
and the power cables are not damaged. If you detect any damage,
contact your dealer immediately.
• Slots and openings on the back or top of the cabinet are provided for
ventilation. Do not block these slots. Never place this product near or
over a radiator or heat source unless proper ventilation is provided.
• The zero client should be operated only from the type of power source
indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to
your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
• Use the appropriate power plug which complies with your local power
standard.
• Do not overload power strips and extension cords. Overloading can
result in fire or electric shock.
• Avoid dust, humidity, and temperature extremes. Do not place the zero
client in any area where it may become wet. Place the zero client on
a stable surface.
• Unplug the unit during a lightning storm or if it will not be used for a
long period of time. This will protect the zero client from damage due
to power surges.
• Never push objects or spill liquid of any kind into the slots on the zero
client cabinet.
• The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be
easily accessible.
• If you encounter technical problems with the zero client , contact a
qualified service technician or your retailer.
vi
Care and cleaning
• Before you lift or reposition your zero client , it is better to disconnect
the cables and power cord. Follow the correct lifting techniques when
positioning the zero client . When lifting or carrying the zero client ,
grasp the edges of the zero client . Do not lift the zero client by the
stand or the cord.
• Cleaning. Turn your zero client off and unplug the power cord. Clean
the zero client surface with a lint-free, non-abrasive cloth. Stubborn
stains may be removed with a cloth dampened with mild cleaner.
• Avoid using a cleaner containing alcohol or acetone. Use a cleaner
intended for use with the screen. Never spray cleaner directly on the
screen, as it may drip inside the zero client and cause an electric
shock.
The following symptoms are normal with the zero client :
• The screen may flicker during the initial use due to the nature of the
fluorescent light. Turn off the power switch and turn it on again to make
sure that the flicker disappears.
• You may find slightly uneven brightness on the screen depending on
the desktop pattern you use.
• When the same image is displayed for hours, an afterimage of the
previous screen may remain after switching the image. The screen will
recover slowly or you can turn off the power switch for hours.
• When the screen becomes black or flashes, or cannot work anymore,
contact your dealer or service center to fix it. Do not try to repair the
zero client by yourself!
