Precautions
Read this first!
- Before playing video games
- Do not play when you are tired or short of sleep. Make sure that the room is well-illuminated and lighting is adjusted to the brightness of the monitor. Keep a suitable distance from the display monitor. Take a break of 10 to 15 minutes every hour while playing. Extremely pronounced lighting effects such as fast image changes, repetitions of simple geometric shapes, and flashes of light may induce epileptic fits or blackouts in some persons. Even persons with no previous known tendency to epilepsy may be in danger. If you or a member of your family has been diagnosed as prone to epilepsy, please consult your physician before playing the video game. Parents should monitor their children carefully when they play video games. Stop playing immediately if the following symptoms are detected: nausea, vision disturbance, muscle tension or cramps, orientation problems, involuntary movements or brief loss of consciousness.
- Static electricity precautions
- Do not take the graphics card out from the original static electricity protection package until you are ready to install it. Before installing, wear a grounded wrist strap if possible, or discharge static electricity by touching the bare metal surface of the system chassis. Carefully hold the graphics card by its rear bracket, and avoid touching the “gold finger” PCB edge connector unless it is necessary.
- Turn off system power before installing the graphics card
- Turn off the AC main power to the system, by the AC main power switch or by detaching the AC power cord. Damage to the graphics card or the system components, or injury to you may result if power is turned on during the installation. Please consult a qualified technician if necessary. The manufacturer assumes no liability for any damage, caused directly or indirectly, by improper installation by unauthorized service personnel.
- Operation Safety
- Do not touch the card while in operation, and allow 5 minutes to pass before removing the card after shutdown.
