About Your Electronic User’s Guide
The illustrations, colours and pictures shown are for descriptive purposes. They may vary
slightly from country to country and the unit you purchase. Please refer to the finished product
for final configurations. Specifications and model names are subject to change without notice.
Text Setup
To make this document as easy to use as possible, additional texts will appear throughout. The
following details the layout and meaning of these additional texts.
Note
Notes give particularly important information about an item being described.
CAUTION
Cautions indicate situations that can damage the computer hardware or software.
WARNING
Warnings alert you to situations that could result in serious personal injury or even
loss of life.
* *For specific models only
Items marked with an asterisk (*) denotes optional items only supplied for specific
models. If the items are not found in the packaging box, it means that they are not
applicable to the system you have just purchased, hence they are not included for
you in the system.
Electronic User’s Guide
To help you familiarise yourself with your new system, we have preinstalled an “Electronic
User’s Guide” for you inside the system (for specific models only, and only applicable to the
Windows®operating system). This guide will contain more information on your system and
Windows®.
Visit our website at www.nec-computers-ap.com regularly to download the most up-to-date
Electronic User’s Guide and print it for your reference.
We recommend that you print this documentation; it will then be easily accessible even
when your computer is shut down.
Print
• To print the Electronic User’s Guide, click “File” on the top menubar, and then click “Print”
from the dropdown menu. You must have a printer installed and connected to be able to
print.
Print in small booklets using recycled paper. Make two-sided prints and copies using the
“duplex” function, print multiple images/page per page, and print only the quantity you need
at the time you need it. This gives you a handy way to store the booklet nearby and saves
paper.

Basic Care and Handling Tips
Protect the computer from extremely low or high temperatures.
Let the computer warm (or cool) to room temperature before
using it.
Keep the computer away from magnetised areas (some airline
tray tables are magnetic; do not set your computer on top of
them). Doing so may damage the data on your hard drive.
Keep the computer dry.
Do not wipe the computer with a wet cloth or pour fluid onto it.
Protect the computer from strong physical contact, such as
being bumped or dropped.
Check the computer for condensation.
If condensation is present, allow it to evaporate before
switching on the computer.
Keep the computer away from dust, sand and dirt.
CAUTION
Immediately turn off and unplug the computer under the following conditions:
• The power cord has been damaged or frayed.
• Liquid has spilled on or into the computer.
• The computer has been dropped or its casing has been damaged.
- 5-
Storage Requirements
Store the computer and AC adaptor in an environment that meets the following
conditions:
Should the temperature of the computer suddenly rise or fall (for example, when you move
the computer from a cold place to a warm place), vapour may condense inside the computer.
Turning on the computer under such conditions can damage the internal computer
components.
Before turning on the computer, wait until the computer's internal temperature stabilises with
the new environment and any internal moisture has evaporated.
•Operate and store your computer within the recommended temperatures and humidity
levels (refer to the section on “Product Storage Environment Guidelines” for more
information).
•Keep the storage area free from vibration and magnetic fields.
•Keep the computer and its components away from organic solvents or corrosive gases.
•Avoid leaving the computer and its components under direct sunlight or near heat
sources.

Starting Up Your Computer for the First Time
Packing List
Before you begin using your computer, please remove all the items inside the packaging box
and make sure that you have all the items in the packing list, illustrated below.
Note
The illustrations, colours and pictures shown are for descriptive purposes. They
may vary slightly from country to country and the unit you purchase.
1. System Unit
The system unit is the main part of the computer which houses many important parts such
as the processor, memory and motherboard. This is the most important item; it is usually
box-shaped.
2. Power Cable*
This cable connects your system directly to an Alternating Current (AC) power outlet,
supplying power for it to run.
3. Wired Keyboard & Wired Mouse*
These are your main input devices, which you will use to operate and navigate around your
system.
4. USB Receiver, Wireless Keyboard & Wireless Mouse*
These come with certain models, and work just as a wired keyboard and mouse do, but via
a wireless connection.
5. Quick Reference*
A printed documentation that contains details about the installation, operation and
maintenance of your computer.

Note
For information on the specification of your computer, please refer to the System
Configuration Label on the packaging box that comes with your system.
Setting Up and Booting Your Computer
The first thing you need to do is to set your system up correctly, making sure that all the
essential devices and cables are properly connected. In addition to the items listed in the
packing list, you will also need:
1. A suitable monitor as a display device. The monitor you use should depend on what type of
video interface your system’s graphic card uses. Ask your vendor what video interface your
system is using; either analog (VGA) or digital (DVI/HDMI). Make sure the monitor you use
supports your graphic card.
2. A video signal cable. This cable will connect your system to the monitor. The type of cable
depends on your monitor.
Step 1
For system units with a graphic card
If you are using a monitor that supports DVI, connect one end of the DVI cable to the graphic
card’s DVI port and the other end to the monitor’s DVI port.
- 8-
If you are using a monitor that only supports VGA, connect one end of the VGA cable to the
graphic card’s VGA port and the other end to the monitor’s VGA port.
Note
Major monitors that support DVI also support VGA, but you must connect it
to the graphic card’s VGA port for it to work.
For system units without a graphic card
Connect one end of the VGA cable to the system unit’s VGA port and the other end to the
monitor’s VGA port.
- 9-
Step 2
Connect the USB connectors of the keyboard and mouse into any USB ports on the system
unit. In this example we will be using the USB ports located on the back of the system unit.
Note
If you are using a wireless keyboard and wireless mouse, ignore Step 2 and
proceed to Step 3.
Step 3
Place the system unit in its proper position.
(i) Now, connect the power cable to the system unit
(ii) Connect its plug to an AC power outlet.
CAUTION
Before you connect or disconnect the power cord at the AC Port of your computer,
please ensure that the power plug is disconnected from the wall outlet.
- 10 -
Step 4
Switch on the AC power outlet. Then, press the “Power” button on the system unit to boot or
start up your computer for the first time.
And that’s all!
Note
If you are using a wireless keyboard and wireless mouse, proceed to “Using a Wireless
Keyboard and Wireless Mouse”. Then, proceed to the section on “Setting up Your
Operating System”.
You’ve successfully booted your computer for the first time. Now, proceed to the section on
“Setting up Your Operating System” to learn how to set up your computer’s operating system.
WARNING
Do not place this computer on your lap and/or allow it to be in contact with any
part of your body while operating.
Using a wireless keyboard and wireless mouse
Once you have switched on the power to your computer, follow these steps to install your
wireless keyboard and wireless mouse.
Step 1
1a: Remove the battery compartment cover on the back of the wireless keyboard by
sliding off the cover. Take care not to break the cover.
