3. Environmental conditions. It's important to keep your com-
puter shielded from extremes in temperature, humidity, dust,
and smoke. You'd be amazed at how smoke of any kind-
cigarette, cigar, pipe, or even woodstove-can affect the in-
tegrity of your diskettes. Like dust, smoke particles adhere
to the magnetic surfaces of your diskettes and can damage
the reading ability of the heads in the diskette drives.
In addition, avoid direct sunlight, heater ducts, and other hot
areas. Also, don't use the QX-10 in damp areas- excessive
humidity can hinder operation.
4. A double 3-prong l20-volt grounded outlet. You'll need one
outlet for the main unit and another for an Epson printer (or
other additional equipment). Using this type of outlet helps
prevent static charges. Most importantly, be sure the socket
is grounded!
5.
Clearance from other electrical appliances. Keep your QX-10
away from anything that generates magnetic fields. This may
come as a surprise, but everything that plugs into an elec-
trical outlet can generate a magnetic field that could cause
problems. Even your telephone can upset things if it's kept
too close to your equipment or diskettes.
Once you're sure you have the ideal place to set up your QX-10,
carefully open the other three cartons. Use a small, sharp tool such
as a pocketknife to cut the tape-carefully. Your QX-10 is well
packaged, but there's no reason to risk scratching its case. You'll
find the QX-10 monitor (also known as the video display),
keyboard, and main unit wrapped in clear plastic and snugly fitted
in its packing. With each unit you'll also find a cable and a registra-
tion card.
Fill out the registration cards when you purchase your QX-10
and mail them to Epson. With your registration cards on file, Epson
can provide continuing hardware and software support to help
you in using your QX-10.
Be sure to keep the cartons (and the packing materials) in case
you should ever need to ship your QX-10. After you've removed
the QX-10 components from their cartons, inspect the components
before assembly and, if anything looks damaged or otherwise
wrong, return it to the dealer.
