Always make sure your PC and AC adaptor have adequate
ventilation and are protected from overheating when the power
is turned on or when an AC adaptor is connected to a power
outlet (even if your PC is in Standby mode). In this condition,
observe the following:
❖ Never cover your PC or AC adaptor with any object.
❖ Never place your PC or AC adaptor near a heat
source, such as an electric blanket or heater.
❖ Never block the air vents.
❖ Always operate your PC on a hard surface. Using
your PC on a carpet or other soft material can block
the vents.
Overheating your PC or AC adaptor could cause system
failure, PC or AC adaptor damage, or a fire, possibly resulting
in serious injury.
The cooling fan location will vary depending on the computer.
