Appendix B

Safety, Maintenance, and Ergonomics

To prevent accidents and damage to your computer or display, be sure that
you always follow these instructions:

Keep your computer and display away from sources of liquids and moisture.

Don’t set anything on top of the computer or display.

Keep the computer and display vents free from obstruction.

Never remove the case from the display or open your computer when it’s running.
You could come in contact with hazardous voltage.

During lightning storms, disconnect your modem from the phone jack to prevent
damaging the modem with a destructive voltage overload.

Be careful when lifting or moving your computer or display. Be sure to use correct
lifting procedures, lifting with your legs. When carrying the display, make sure the
display is facing you. Don’t carry the display by its stand.

Liquid Cooling System

Some Power Mac G5 models use a liquid cooling system to manage the temperature in
the computer. The liquid cooling system is sealed and is designed to be opened only
by an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP).

Warning:

Your Macintosh is equipped with a three-wire grounding plug—a plug that

has a third grounding pin. This is a safety feature. Don’t modify the plug to fit into an
ungrounded outlet. Contact a licensed electrician to replace the outlet with a
properly grounded one. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding plug!

Warning:

Electrical equipment may be hazardous if misused. Operation of this

product by children must always be supervised by an adult. Do not allow children
access to the interior of any electrical product and do not permit them to handle any
cables.

Warning:

Do not attempt to open or service the liquid cooling system. Opening the

liquid cooling system may damage your equipment, and such damage may not be
covered by the limited warranty on your computer.
