Usage Environment
Handling
This computer has been designed so as to minimize shock to the LCD and hard disk drive, the
leakage of liquid (e.g., water) on to the keyboard, etc., but no warranty is provided against
such trouble. Therefore, as a precision instrument, be extremely careful in the handling.
Do not drop or hit your computer against solid objects.
Do not carry your computer when it is on.
Remove all external devices, cables, and PC Cards sticking out of the computer (see the
figure on the left) before transporting the computer.
We recommend preparing a fully charged battery (and optional charger, if possible).
When transporting spare batteries inside a package, briefcase, etc., it is recommended that
the batteries be stored in a plastic bag.
Do not place the computer upright or allow it to tip over. When the computer receives extremely
strong shock after falling, the hard disk or floppy disk drive, etc., may become inoperable.
Do not carry the computer while the display is open, or carry it by gripping the display.
Do not put anything (e.g., a piece of paper) between the display and keyboard.
Always carry your computer with you when traveling. Never check it in with luggage. For
use of the computer inside an aircraft, we recommend asking the airlines regarding their
policy on this issue.
It is a good idea to make backup copies on disks and carry them with you.
Do not leave a disk in the drive while transporting your computer.
Maintenance
Touch Pad
page 17
Do not use benzene, thinner, or rubbing alcohol. Doing so may adversely affect the surface, e.g., discoloration. In addition, do
not use commercially-available household cleaners and cosmetics, as they may contain components harmful to the surface.
Do not directly add or spray water or detergent. If liquid enters the inside of the computer, it may cause it to work improp-
erly or be damaged.
Display
<Models with touchscreen>
Use the soft cloth included with the computer. (For more information, refer to “Suggestions
About Cleaning the LCD Surface” that come with the soft cloth.)
If the Protective Film becomes dirty or damaged, it may be time to replace your Protective
Film. The Protective Film is a disposable item. To find out the model number of your Protec-
tive Film, contact Panasonic Technical Support. (For more information, refer to the “Operating
Instructions” that come with the Protective Film.)
<Models without touchscreen>
Avoid using water when cleaning the panel. Ingredients included in water may leave residue
and reduce readability of the screen.
<When cleaning dust/dirt>
Avoid rubbing off dust/dirt with cloth since it may leave scratch on the screen.
Sweep dust/dirt with fine brush, then wipe it with “dry” soft cloth used for cleaning glasses.
<When cleaning oily surface>
Apply camera lens cleaner on a soft gauze and clean it with gentle force. Then, wipe with dry
soft cloth used for cleaning glasses.
CAUTION
Areas excluding the display
Wipe these areas with a soft cloth,
after applying water or detergent
diluted with water to the soft cloth
and firmly wringing out excess
water.
Do not touch or use a touchscreen before you re-attach a Protective Film, as you may leave
a mark or a scratch on the touchscreen.
