Some PC Cards can become hot with prolonged use. If two
cards are installed, both can become hot even if only one is
used extensively. Overheating of a PC Card can result in errors
or instability in the PC Card operation.
Be careful when you remove a PC Card that has been used for
lengthy periods of time.
❖ Avoid spilling liquids into the computer’s keyboard.
If you do spill a liquid that gets into the keyboard, turn
off the computer immediately. Leave the computer turned
off overnight to let it dry out before you use it again.
❖ Never turn off the computer if a drive light indicates a
drive is active.
Turning off the computer while it is reading from or
writing to a disk may damage the disk, the drive, or both.
❖ Keep the computer and disks away from objects that
generate strong magnetic fields, such as large stereo
speakers.
Information on disks is stored magnetically. Placing a
magnet too close to a disk can erase important files.
❖ Scan all new files for viruses.
This precaution is especially important for files you
receive via email or download from the Internet.
Occasionally, even new programs you buy from a
supplier may contain a computer virus. You will need a
special program to check for viruses. Ask your dealer to
help you.
