3. Ukusebenza
3.1 Iphaneli ye-I/O yangaphambili
Iphaneli ye-I/O yangaphambili inikeza ukufinyelela okulula kumachweba nezilawuli ezibalulekile:
- Inkinobho yamandla: To turn the system on/off.
- Setha kabusha Inkinobho: Ukuze uqale kabusha uhlelo.
- Izimbobo ze-USB 3.0 (x2): For high-speed data transfer (up to 300MB/s).
- Uhlobo lwe-C-Port: For high-speed data transfer (up to 1280MB/s).
- Ama-Jacks Omsindo we-HD: For headphones and microphone.

4. Isondlo
4.1 Ukuhlanza Isihlungi Sothuli
The case includes a pull-out dust filter at the bottom to prevent dust accumulation. Regularly clean this filter to maintain optimal airflow and component longevity.
- Gently pull out the dust filter from the bottom of the case.
- Clean the filter using compressed air or a soft brush.
- Reinsert the clean filter into its slot.

4.2 Ukuhlanza Okujwayelekile
For general cleaning of the case exterior and interior:
- Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down exterior surfaces.
- For glass panels, use a glass cleaner applied to a cloth (not directly to the glass) to avoid streaks.
- Use compressed air to remove dust from internal components and fan blades.
- Gwema ukusebenzisa amakhemikhali anokhahlo noma izinto ezilumayo ezingalimaza isiphetho.
5. Ukuxazulula izinkinga
Lesi sigaba sikhuluma ngezinkinga ezivamile ongase uhlangane nazo ngesikhathi sokuhlanganiswa noma ukusebenza.
