Be sure to turn off your Home Server and 

disconnect the power cord before cleaning.



Use a dry cloth to wipe off dust.



Be sure to use a dry, soft cloth to clean your 

Home Server. If you find it difficult to clean, 

blow on the spot and rub with a dry cloth; or 

wipe with a slightly moistened cloth and then 

use a dry cloth to wipe away the moisture.



Do not use any solvents, such as benzene, 

acetone, alcohol, or thinner, as it will damage 

the finish on your Home Server.



Be sure to read the instructions before using a 

chemical cloth.

Moving your Home Server with the power cord 

and other cables connected may damage the 

cables, resulting in a fire or an electric shock. It 

may also cause personal injuries by knocking 

down devices connected to your computer. Take 

extra care not to drop your computer.



  Do not drop metal debris into a receptacle, as it 

may cause a short circuit, resulting in a fire.



  Plug a connector straight into a receptacle to 

avoid a short circuit and a possible fire.



  If the connector is equipped with tabs or screws 

for securing, be sure to tighten them to avoid 

loose connection.

Before disposing of your Home Server, be sure to 

erase your valuable data.

The Home Server Settings Page provides a way to 

restore the state of the Home Server at the time of 

delivery. You can click “Restore system” on the 

Reset page to restore the system settings and 

delete all the data you previously stored. This 

process, however, only changes the management 

data on the hard disk drive to make the stored 

data disabled for access from the operating 

system, Linux for example, and does not really 

erase the data. If you dispose of your Home Server 

in this state, therefore, a third person could access 

and restore your data with special software; and 

then use it for unethical purposes.

It is crucial that you completely erase your data on 

the hard disk drive at your own risk before 

disposing of your Home Server to avoid 

information leaks. 

To completely erase your data, expose the hard 

disk drive to magnetic fields to destroy the data on 

the drive and then physically destroy the drive.
