Be careful about where and how you work
Store packing materials safely out of the reach of children to prevent the risk of suffocation from plastic
bags.
Keep your computer away from magnets, activated cellular phones, electrical appliances, or speakers
(within 13 cm or 5 inches).
Avoid subjecting your computer to extreme temperatures (below 5°C/41°F or above 35°C/95°F).
Some appliances, such as certain portable desktop fans or air puriers, can produce negative ions. If a
computer is close to such an appliance, and is exposed for an extended time to air containing negative
ions, it might become electrostatically charged. Such a charge might be discharged through your hands
when you touch the keyboard or other parts of the computer, or through connectors on I/O devices
connected to it. Even though this kind of electrostatic discharge (ESD) is the opposite of a discharge from
your body or clothing to the computer, it poses the same risk of a computer malfunction.
Your computer is designed and manufactured to minimize any effects of electrostatic charge. An electrostatic
charge above a certain limit, however, can increase the risk of ESD. Therefore, when using the computer
close to an appliance that can produce negative ions, give special attention to the following:
Avoid directly exposing your computer to the air from an appliance that can produce negative ions.
Keep your computer and peripherals as far as possible from such an appliance.
Wherever possible, ground your computer to facilitate safe electrostatic discharge.
Note: Not all such appliances cause a signicant electrostatic charge.
Be gentle with your computer
Avoid placing any objects (including paper) between the display and the keyboard or the palm rest.
Your computer display is designed to be opened and used at an angle slightly greater than 90 degrees.
Do not open the display beyond 180 degrees, as this might damage the computer hinge.
Do not turn your computer over while the ac power adapter is plugged in. This could break the adapter
plug.
Carry your computer properly
Before moving your computer, be sure to remove any media, turn off attached devices, and disconnect
cords and cables.
When picking up your open computer, hold it by the bottom. Do not pick up or hold your computer by
the display.
Handle storage media and drives properly
Store your external hard disk drive in the appropriate containers or packaging when they are not being
used.
Before you install a memory card such as an SD card, SDHC card, SDXC card, and a MultiMediaCard,
touch a metal table or a grounded metal object. This action reduces any static electricity from your body.
The static electricity could damage the device.
When transferring data to or from a ash media card, such as an SD card, do not put your computer in
sleep or hibernation mode before the data transfer is complete; otherwise, your data could become
damaged.
Take care in setting passwords
Remember your passwords. If you forget a supervisor or hard disk password, Lenovo will not reset it, and
you might have to replace your system board or solid-state drive.
