Safety Precautions
General
•
Follow all cautions and instructions, which may be marked, on the computer.
•
Except as described elsewhere in this manual, refer all servicing to qualified
personnel. Immediately shut off the computer and seek servicing under the
following conditions:
• when the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed
• when liquid has been spilled on the computer
• when the computer has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged
Location
•
Do not expose the computer to direct sunlight.
•
Try to avoid dusty environments.
•
Keep the computer away from any magnetic devices and TVs.
•
Keep the computer away from excessive humidity or fluids such as rain, snow,
water spray, juice, coffee, steam, etc.
•
Do not move the computer from an extremely cold place to an extremely warm
place. A temperature difference of more than 10
°C (18°F) will cause condensation
inside the unit, which may cause damage.
•
Do not block or cover slots or openings on the cabinet. These protect the computer
from overheating.
•
Do not place the computer on unstable or uneven work surfaces.
•
Do not use the computer on your lap or any part of your body for an extended
period during operation or charging to avoid injury from heat exposure.
Usage
•
Never push any objects of any kind into cabinet openings. They may touch
dangerous voltage points or short parts that could result in fire or electrical shock.
•
Turn off the computer before installing or removing peripheral devices (except
when connecting USB devices and PC cards, etc.).
•
Check the AC power cord and power connectors periodically for damage. Replace
the power cord immediately if damage is found.
•
Never subject your computer to sudden shocks or extreme vibration.
