Setting Up Your HP Firebird 5

Using surge protection

Help protect the monitor, computer, and accessories by connecting all power cords for the

computer and peripheral devices (such as a monitor, printer, or scanner) to a surge protection

device, such as a power strip with surge protection or an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).

Many surge protection devices have surge protection inputs and outputs for modem or

telephone lines. Telephone lines are a common path for lightning spikes to get into the system.

Some surge protection devices have surge protection for television cable connections as well.

Use those if the computer has a television tuner installed.

Not all power strips provide surge protection; the power strip must be specifically labeled as

having this capability. Use a power strip whose manufacturer offers a damage replacement

policy that replaces the equipment if surge protection fails.

Opening the HP Firebird

Press the latch on the bottom of the computer and pull the left side cover open by holding the

upper right corner.

Closing the HP Firebird

Place both hands over the latches on the left side cover and press to close.
