SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE

Safety

Important information regarding the proper setup and maintenance of your touchcomputer:

• To reduce the risk of electric shock, follow all safety notices and never open the touchcomputer case.
• Turn off the product before cleaning (refer to “Care and Handling” for proper cleaning methods).
• Your touchcomputer is equipped with a 3-wire, grounding power cord. The power cord plug only fits into a grounded outlet. Do not attempt to fit the plug into an outlet that has not been configured for this purpose. Do not use a damaged power cord. Only use the power cord that comes with your Elo Touch Solutions touchcomputer. Use of an unauthorized power cord might invalidate your warranty.
• The slots located on the sides and top of the touchcomputer case are for ventilation. Do not block or insert anything inside the ventilation slots.
• It is important that your touchcomputer remains dry. Do not pour liquid into or onto your touchcomputer. If your touchcomputer becomes wet, do not attempt to repair it yourself. Contact Elo Customer Service for instructions.

Care and Handling

The following tips help keep your touchcomputer functioning at the optimal level.

To avoid risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the power adapter or display unit cabinet. The unit is not user serviceable. Remember to unplug the display unit from the power outlet before cleaning.

Do not use alcohol (methyl, ethyl, or isopropyl) or any strong solvent. Do not use thinner or benzene, abrasive cleaners, or compressed air.

To clean the display unit cabinet, use a cloth lightly dampened with a mild detergent.

Avoid getting liquids inside your touchcomputer. If liquid does get inside, have a qualified service technician check it before you power it on again.

Do not wipe the screen with a cloth or sponge that could scratch the surface.

To clean the touchscreen, use window or glass cleaner. Put the cleaner on the rag and wipe the touchscreen. Never apply the cleaner directly on the touchscreen.

REGULATORY INFORMATION

I. Electrical Safety Information

A) Compliance is required with respect to the voltage, frequency, and current requirements indicated on the manufacturer's label. Connection to a different power source than those specified herein may result in improper operation, damage to the equipment, invalidation of warranty, or a fire hazard if the requirements are not followed.
B) There are no operator-serviceable parts inside this equipment. There are hazardous voltages generated by this equipment which constitute a safety hazard. Service should be provided only by a qualified service technician.
C) This equipment is provided with a detachable power cord which has an integral safety ground wire intended for connection to a grounded safety outlet.

1) Do not substitute the cord with other than the provided approved type. Under no circumstances use an adapter plug to connect to a 2-wire outlet as this defeats the continuity of the grounding wire.
2) The equipment requires the use of the ground wire as a part of the safety certification. Modification or misuse can provide a shock hazard that can result in serious injury or death.
3) Contact a qualified electrician or the manufacturer if there are questions about the installation prior to connecting the equipment to main power.

II. Emissions and Immunity Information

A) Notice to Users in the United States: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential or commercial installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can

radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

B) Notice to Users in Canada: This equipment complies with the Class B limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus as established by the Radio Interference Regulations of Industry Canada.
C) Notice to Users in the European Union: Use only the provided power cords and interconnecting cabling provided with the equipment. Substitution of provided cords and cabling may compromise electrical safety or CE Mark Certification for emissions or immunity as required by the following standards: This Information Technology Equipment (ITE) is required to have a CE Mark on the manufacturer's label which means that the equipment has been tested to the following Directives and Standards:

This equipment has been tested to the requirements for the CE Mark as required by EMC Directive 2004/108/EC indicated in European Standard EN 55022 Class B and the Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC as indicated in European Standard EN 60950-1.

D) General Information to all Users: This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not installed and used according to this manual, the equipment may cause interference with radio and television communications. There is, however, no guarantee that interference will not occur in any particular installation due to site-specific factors.

1) In order to meet emission and immunity requirements, the user must observe the following:

a) Use only the provided cables to connect the Elo touchcomputer.
b) To ensure compliance, use only the provided manufacturer's approved power cord.
c) The user is cautioned that changes or modifications to the equipment not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

2) If this equipment appears to cause interference with radio or television reception, or any other device:

a) Verify as an emission source by turning the equipment off and on.
b) If you determine that this equipment is causing the interference, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

i) Move the digital device away from the affected receiver.
ii) Reposition (turn) the digital device with respect to the affected receiver.
iii) Reorient the affected receiver's antenna.
iv) Plug the digital device into a different AC outlet so the digital device and the receiver are on different branch circuits.

v) Disconnect and remove any I/O cables that the digital device does not use. (Unterminated I/O cables are a potential source of high RF emission levels.) vi) Plug the digital device into only a grounded outlet receptacle. Do not use AC adapter plugs. (Removing or cutting the line cord ground may increase RF emission levels and may also present a lethal shock hazard to the user.) vii) If you need additional help, consult your dealer, manufacturer, or an experienced radio or television technician.
