Although the hard disk has the safety device in itself to prevent losing data due to mechanical vibration,
shock or dust, you should be careful when handling your computer.
To avoid damaging your hard disk:
❑ Do not give a shock to your computer.
❑ Keep away from magnets.
❑ Do not place your computer in a location subject to mechanical vibration or in unstable situation.
❑ Do not move your computer while the power is on.
❑ Do not turn off the power or restart the computer while reading or writing data.
❑ Do not use your computer in a place subject to extreme change of temperature.
✍ If the hard disk is damaged, the data cannot be restored.
On handling the LCD screen
❑ Do not leave the LCD facing the sun as it can damage the LCD. Be careful when using the computer near
a window.
❑ Do not scratch the LCD or exert pressure on it. This could cause malfunction.
❑ Using the computer in low temperature conditions may produce a residual image on the screen. This is
not a malfunction. When the computer returns to normal temperature, the screen returns to normal.
❑ A residual image may appear on the screen if the same image is displayed for a lengthy period of time.
The residual image disappears in a while. You can use a screensaver to prevent residual images.
❑ The screen becomes warm during operation. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
❑ The LCD is manufactured using high-precision technology. You may, however, see tiny black points and/
or bright points (red, blue, or green) that continuously appear on the LCD. This is a normal result of the
manufacturing process and does not indicate a malfunction.
❑ Avoid rubbing the LCD screen, as this can damage the screen. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the LCD screen.
