Safety Precautions
General
Follow all cautions and instructions which may be marked on the computer.
Except as described elsewhere in this manual, refer all servicing to qualified
personnel. Immediately shut off the computer and request servicing under the
following conditions:
The power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
Liquid has been spilled on the computer.
The computer has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
Location
Do not expose the computer to direct sunlight.

Keep the computer away from any magnetic devices and TVs.
Keep the computer away from excessive humidity or fluids such as rain, snow,
water spray, juice, coffee, steam, etc.
Do not move the computer from a cold place to a warm place. A temperature
difference of more than 10°C (18°F) will cause condensation inside the unit,
which may damage the data.
Do not block or cover slots or openings on the cabinet to protect the computer
from overheating.
Do not smoke near your computer.
Usage
Never push any objects of any kind into cabinet openings. They may touch
dangerous voltage points or short parts that could result in fire or electrical
shock.

when connecting USB devices and PC cards).
Check the AC power cord and power connectors periodically for damage.
Replace the power cord immediately if damage is found.
Never subject your computer to sudden shocks or extreme vibration.
