Vent and Security Cable Slot
Component Description
1
Exhaust vent* Provides airflow to cool internal
components.
Ä
To prevent overheating, do not
obstruct vents. Use the
computer only on a hard, flat
surface. Do not allow another
hard surface, such as a printer,
or a soft surface, such as pillows
or thick rugs or clothing, to block
the airflow.
✎
The computer fan starts up
automatically to cool internal
components and prevent
overheating. It is normal for the
internal fan to cycle on and off
during routine operation.
2
Security cable slot Attaches an optional security cable to
the computer.
✎
The security cable is designed
to act as a deterrent, but may
not prevent the computer from
being mishandled or stolen.
*The computer has 4 vents. This and all other vents are visible on the
bottom of the computer. One vent is also visible on the rear of the computer.
