10 System Information Guide
Observe the following safe-handling guidelines to prevent damage to
your device:
• When setting up the device for work, place it on a level surface.
• You can put your device through an X-ray security machine, but
never put your device through a metal detector. If you have the
device checked by hand, be sure to have a charged battery
available in case you are asked to turn on the device.
• Protect your device, battery, and hard drive from environmental
hazards such as dirt, dust, food, liquids, temperature extremes,
and overexposure to sunlight.
• When you move your device between environments with very
different temperature and/or humidity ranges, condensation may
form on or within the device. To avoid damaging the device,
allow sufficient time for the moisture to evaporate before using
the device.
NOTICE: When taking the device from low-temperature conditions into
a warmer environment or from high-temperature conditions into a cooler
environment, allow the device to acclimate to room temperature before
turning on power.
• When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its
strain-relief loop, not on the cable itself. As you pull out the
connector, keep it evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector
pins. Also, before you connect a cable make sure both connectors
are correctly oriented and aligned.
• Handle components with care.
