 To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose your computer to rain or moisture.
 To avoid electrical shock, do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
 Turning off your computer with the  (power) button does not disconnect the computer
completely from mains voltage. To disconnect it completely, unplug the AC adapter or the
power cable from mains. The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be
easily accessible.
 Do not use your computer directly on your lap. The temperature of the base of the unit will
rise during normal operation and over time could result in discomfort or burns.
 Do not place the AC adapter in contact with your skin. Remove the AC adapter away from
your body if it becomes warm and causes discomfort.
 Do not block the air exhaust or intake vents while the computer is in operation.
 Blocking the air vents leads to restriction on air circulation, which can cause internal
overheating, resulting in deformation of the computer, a malfunction, or a fire hazard.
 Observe the following precautions to provide adequate air circulation and to ensure normal
reliable operation:
 Do not use the computer on any cloth covered surfaces such as rugs, cushion or
blankets, near draperies, or on dusty surfaces that may block its air vents. Always use
the computer on flat surfaces.
 Do not use the computer and/or the AC adapter while covered or wrapped in cloth.
Ensure the AC adapter operates in a clear environment.
