Important handling information for your Mac
Operating environment. Operating your Mac Pro outside these ranges may affect performance:
Operating temperature: 50° to 95° F (10° to 35° C)
Storage temperature: -40° to 116° F (-40° to 47° C)
Relative humidity: 5% to 95% (noncondensing)
Operating altitude: Tested up to 16,400 feet (0 to 5000 meters)
Do not operate your Mac Pro in areas with significant amounts of airborne dust, or smoke from cigarettes, cigars, ashtrays, stoves, or fireplaces, or near an ultrasonic humidifier using unfiltered tap water. Tiny airborne particles produced by smoking, cooking, burning, or using an ultrasonic humidifier with unfiltered water may, in rare instances, enter the ventilation openings of your Mac Pro.
Carrying your Mac Pro. Before you lift or reposition your Mac Pro, shut it down and disconnect all cables and cords. To lift your Mac Pro, do one of the following:
For Mac Pro (Tower): Hold it by the top handles; do not use the top latch. If your configured Mac Pro weighs more than 50 pounds, remove its cover to reduce the computer’s weight or have a someone assist you.
For Mac Pro (Rack): Use two people to lift your Mac Pro; one person should lift Mac Pro by its handles, while the other person supports it from the bottom.
CAUTION: Keep hands and fingers away from the moving parts to avoid pinching.
Using connectors and ports. Never force a connector into a port. Before you plug the power cord into the power port, make sure the power port is completely free of debris. When connecting a device to a port, make sure the port is completely free of debris, that the connector matches the port, and that you have positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.
Important: Use only the original cables that came with your computer or accessory, or cables sold at an Apple retail store or online at apple.com.
Storing your Mac Pro. If you are going to store your Mac Pro for an extended period of time, keep it in a cool location (ideally, 71° F or 22° C).
Cleaning your Mac Pro. When cleaning the outside of your Mac Pro and its components, first shut down your Mac Pro, then unplug all cords and cables. Then dampen a clean, soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the Mac Pro exterior. Avoid getting moisture in any openings. Don’t spray liquid directly on the computer. Don’t use alcohol, aerosol sprays, solvents, abrasives, or cleaners containing hydrogen peroxide that might damage the exterior finish.
WARNING: Don’t use iKlear cleaning solution on your Mac Pro as it may damage the housing’s finish.
Cleaning the Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Numeric Keypad, Magic Mouse, or Magic Trackpad. Turn off the device, then unplug the cable (if necessary). To clean the outside of your mouse, keyboard, or trackpad, use a clean, soft, lint-free cloth that’s been lightly moistened with water. Don’t get moisture in any openings or use aerosol sprays, solvents, or abrasives.
