Caring for Your Notebook
S
Did you know...
Your Notebook computer is cooled by air that is
drawn in through the vents on the chassis and blown out through
the exhaust fan. It is important to keep the vents on the chassis
free of dust and debris. Brush any dust away from the vents with a
damp cloth but do not attempt to dismantle the Notebook to clean
dust from the inside of the Notebook. If you dismantle your
Notebook, you may permanently damage the components on your
Notebook.
The computer is designed to run demanding applications that
require PC Cards, CD-ROM drives, and large amounts of RAM
while maintaining full processor performance.
As a result of increased power consumption, it is normal for the
computer to feel warm to hot when being used for extended
periods.
This computer complies with international safety standards for
temperatures of user-accessible surfaces.
Your Notebook computer is designed as a durable product.
However, when you transport it, Compaq recommends that you
put it in a portable notebook carrying case. To enhance the life of
your system, follow these Do’s and Don’ts.
Do’s
■
Carry and store your Notebook in a portable notebook
carrying case.
■
Keep floppy disks and modular disk drives away from

floppy disks and on your hard drives.
