Before reading this manual

For your safety

This manual contains important information for safely and correctly using this

product.

Carefully read the manual before using this product. Pay particular attention to

the accompanying manual "Safety Notes and Regulations" and ensure these

safety notes are understood before using the product. Keep this manual and the

Radio interference

This product is a "Class A" ITE (Information Technology Equipment). In a

the user may be required to take appropriate measures. VCCI-A

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors

The aluminum electrolytic capacitors used in the product's printed circuit board

assemblies and in the mouse and keyboard are limited-life components. Use of

these components beyond their operating life may result in electrolyte leakage

or depletion, potentially causing emission of foul odor or smoke.

As a guideline, in a normal office environment (25°C) operating life is not

expected to be reached within the maintenance support period (5 years).

However, operating life may be reached more quickly if, for example, the product

is used in a hot environment. The customer shall bear the cost of replacing

replaceable components which have exceeded their operating life. Note that

these are only guidelines, and do not constitute a guarantee of trouble-free

operation during the maintenance support period.

High safety use

This product has been designed and manufactured for general uses such as

general office use, personal use, domestic use and normal industrial use. It has

not been designed or manufactured for uses which demand an extremely high

level of safety and carry a direct and serious risk to life or body if such safety

cannot be ensured.

Operating Manual TX100 S2 Core Edition

These uses include control of nuclear reactions in nuclear power plants,

automatic airplane flight control, air traffic control, traffic control in mass

transport systems, medical devices for life support, and missile guidance control

in weapons systems (hereafter, "high safety use"). Customers should not use

this product for high safety use unless measures are in place for ensuring the

level of safety demanded of such use. Please consult the sales staff of Fujitsu if

intending to use this product for high safety use.

Measures against momentary voltage drop
