2.9. Cabling
• Position the cables so that they cannot be stepped on or tripped
over.
• To avoid damaging the cables, do not place any objects on them.
• Do not connect peripheral devices – such as keyboards, mouse
and monitor, etc. – when the Notebook is switched on to avoid
damage to the Notebook or the devices. Some devices may also
be connected while the computer is running. This is generally the
case for devices with a USB connection. In all cases, observe the
relevant operating instructions.
• Maintain a distance of at least one metre from sources of high-
frequency and magnetic interference (TV sets, loudspeakers,
mobile phones, DECT telephones, etc.) in order to avoid
malfunctions and data loss.
• Please note that only shielded cables that are shorter than 3
metres may be connected to the external interfaces of this
Notebook. Please only use double-shielded cables for printer cable
connections.
• Do not exchange the supplied cable for another one. Use only
the supplied cable as this cable has been extensively tested in our
laboratory.
• In addition, when connecting your peripherals only use the
connecting cables supplied with those devices.
• Ensure that all connection cables are connected to their
corresponding peripheral device to avoid any interference
radiation. Disconnect any cables that are not required.
• The only devices which may be connected to the Notebook are
those that meet the requirements set out in the EN60950 standard
“Information Technology Equipment – Safety” or devices that
meet the EN60065 standard “Audio, video and similar electronic
apparatus – Safety requirements”.
