Avoiding Low-temperature Burns
*1
Avoid more than casual contact with any
heat producing area of the notebook
computer, AC adaptor, and any option or
accessory you use with it. Even low heat,
if warmer than body temperature, can
cause a burn, if the skin is exposed to the
heat source for a long period of time.
Do not touch the computer and cable
when it starts thundering
Keep SD memory cards (sold sepa-
rately) away from infants and small
children

network cable other than the one
specified, into the LAN port
If the LAN port is connected to a network
such as the ones listed below, a fire or
electric shock may result.
• Networks other than 100BASE-TX or
10BASE-T
