Operating

environment

The

optimal

environment

in

which

to

use

your

computer

is

10°C-35°C

(50°F-95°F)

with

humidity

ranging

between

35%

and

80%.

If

your

computer

is

stored

or

transported

in

temperatures

less

than

10°C

(50°F),

allow

the

cold

computer

to

rise

slowly

to

an

optimal

operating

temperature

of

10°C-35°C

(50°F-95°F)

before

This

process

could

take

two

hours

in

extreme

conditions.

Failure

to

allow

your

computer

to

rise

to

an

optimal

operating

temperature

before

use

could

result

in

irreparable

damage

to

your

computer.

If

possible,

place

your

computer

in

a

well-ventilated

and

dry

area

direct

exposure

to

sunshine.

electrical

appliances

such

as

an

electric

fan,

radio,

high-powered

speakers,

air

conditioner,

and

microwave

oven

away

from

your

computer

because

the

strong

magnetic

fields

generated

by

these

appliances

can

damage

the

monitor

and

data

on

the

hard

disk

drive.

Do

not

place

any

beverages

on

top

of

or

beside

the

computer

or

other

attached

devices.

If

liquid

is

spilled

on

or

in

the

computer

or

an

attached

device,

a

short

circuit

or

other

damage

might

occur.

Do

not

eat

or

smoke
