Care and Handling of Your Touchcomputer
The following tips will help keep your Elo touchcomputer functioning at the optimal
level.
• To avoid risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the power adapter or display
unit cabinet. The unit is not user serviceable. Remember to unplug the display unit
from the power outlet before cleaning.
• Do not use alcohol (methyl, ethyl or isopropyl) or any strong dissolvent. Do not
use thinner or benzene, abrasive cleaners or compressed air.
• To clean the display unit cabinet, use a cloth lightly dampened with a mild deter-
gent.
• Avoid getting liquids inside your touchcomputer. If liquid does get inside, have a
qualified service technician check it before you power it on again.
• Do not wipe the screen with a cloth or sponge that could scratch the surface.
• To clean the touchscreen, use window or glass cleaner. Put the cleaner on the rag
and wipe the touchscreen. Never apply the cleaner directly on the touchscreen.

Servicing the Hard Disk Drive
When removing or installing a hard disk drive, first turn the touchcomputer off and
remove the power supply connection.
To Install Hard Disk Drive
1. Take off the back cover insert, and remove the four screws connecting the stand to
the chassis. Once these screws are removed, the stand will come off. Then remove the
screws on the chassis. If you have an existing hard drive, please pull on the metal
handle. After pulling on this handle, the hard drive will easily slide out.
2. Grasp the handle of the new hard drive and slide the hard drive into the slot with the
,
manufacturer s label faced down and the connector facing the top of the touchcomputer.
Slide the hard drive to the right until it stops. Then push the hard drive up into the SATA
connector and make sure that it locks into place.
3. Secure the Hard Drive to the touchcomputer using 2 screws. Reinstall the screws
to close the chassis.
Elo TouchSystems 15A1 User Guide 29
4. Reinstall the stand by using 4 screws and replace the back cover insert.
Recovering the Operating System
If for any reason the touchcomputer’s operating system and software needs to be
recovered, insert the included recovery disk into an external DVD-ROM drive or
internal DVD drive (if available) and reboot the touchcomputer. Follow the on-screen
instructions to complete recovery.

Regulatory Information
I. Electrical Safety Information:
A) Compliance is required with respect to the voltage, frequency, and current
requirements indicated on the manufacturer’s label. Connection to a different power
source than those specified herein will likely result in improper operation, damage to
the equipment or pose a fire hazard if the limitations are not followed.
B) There are no operator serviceable parts inside this equipment. There are hazardous
voltages generated by this equipment which constitute a safety hazard. Service should
be provided only by a qualified service technician.
C) This equipment is provided with a detachable power cord which has an integral safety
ground wire intended for connection to a grounded safety outlet.
1) Do not substitute the cord with other than the provided approved type. Under
no circumstances use an adapter plug to connect to a 2-wire outlet as this will
defeat the continuity of the grounding wire.
2) The equipment requires the use of the ground wire as a part of the safety
certification, modification or misuse can provide a shock hazard that can result
in serious injury or death.
3) Contact a qualified electrician or the manufacturer if there are questions about
the installation prior to connecting the equipment to mains power.
II. Emissions and Immunity Information
A) Notice to Users in the United States: This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
B) Notice to Users in Canada: This equipment complies with the Class A limits for
radio noise emissions from digital apparatus as established by the Radio Interference
Regulations of Industry Canada.
C) Notice to Users in the European Union: Use only the provided power cords and
interconnecting cabling provided with the equipment. Substitution of provided cords
and cabling may compromise electrical safety or CE Mark Certification for emissions or
immunity as required by the following standards:
Elo TouchSystems 15A1 User Guide 45
This Information Technology Equipment (ITE) is required to have a CE Mark on
the manufacturer’s label which means that the equipment has been tested to the
following Directives and Standards:
This equipment has been tested to the requirements for the CE Mark as required
by EMC Directive 89/336/EEC indicated in European Standard EN 55 022 Class
Aand the Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC as indicated in European Standard
EN 60 950.
D) General Information to all Users: This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy. If not installed and used according to this manual the equipment
may cause interference with radio and television communications. There is, however, no
guarantee that interference will not occur in any particular installation due to
site-specific factors.
1) In order to meet emission and immunity requirements, the user must observe the
following:
a) Use only the provided I/O cables to connect this digital device with any
computer.
b) To ensure compliance, use only the provided manufacturer’s approved
line cord.
c) The user is cautioned that changes or modifications to the equipment
not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
2) If this equipment appears to cause interference with radio or television reception, or
any other device:
a) Verify as an emission source by turning the equipment off and on.
b) If you determine that this equipment is causing the interference, try to
correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:
i) Move the digital device away from the affected receiver.
ii) Reposition (turn) the digital device with respect to the affected
receiver.
iii) Reorient the affected receiver’s antenna.
iv) Plug the digital device into a different AC outlet so the digital
device and the receiver are on different branch circuits.
v) Disconnect and remove any I/O cables that the digital device
does not use. (Unterminated I/O cables are a potential source of
high RF emission levels.)
vi) Plug the digital device into only a grounded outlet receptacle.
Do not use AC adapter plugs. (Removing or cutting the line cord
ground may increase RF emission levels and may also present a
lethal shock hazard to the user.)
vii) If you need additional help, consult your dealer, manufacturer, or an
experienced radio or television technician.
