xxxviii User’s Manual
Heat injury
Avoid prolonged physical contact with the computer. If the computer is used
for long periods, its surface can become very warm. While the temperature
will not feel hot to the touch, if you maintain physical contact with the com-
puter for a long time, for example if you rest the computer on your lap or if
you keep your hands on the palm rest, your skin might suffer low-heat

If the computer has been used for a long time, avoid direct contact with the
metal plate supporting the various interface ports as this can become hot.

Do not lay the AC adaptor on a material that is sensitive to heat as the mate-
