Using the Computer
1-6
Never pick up or carry your unit by the
display.
Never use the computer in harsh
environments where it could be subjected to
rapid temperature changes and excessive
dust.
Never expose the computer to excessive
vibration.
Never expose the hard disk or floppies to
strong magnetic fields, such as those
generated by audio system speakers or
telephone handsets.
Be sure the wall outlet supplies the voltage
required by the AC adapter. Check the
labels on the bottom of the computer case
and on the AC adapter.
Avoid leaving your computer in storage for
more than two weeks without a charged
battery if the computer is not connected to
the AC adapter. The battery that maintains
the configuration, time, and date will
discharge.
To avoid overheating the computer, never
place anything on top of the computer when
it is recharging or operating.
Before moving an active computer, press the
Suspend to Disk
button to put the
computer into sleep mode and close the
display (see
Suspend
in the next section).
