Care and Maintenance

If you use your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook carefully, you will increase its life and reliability. This section provides

some tips for looking after the notebook and its devices.

The system contains components that can be severely damaged by electro- static discharge (ESD). To minimize risk to the components, observe the following precautions:

Before docking or undocking your LifeBook notebook (when using a port replicator), it is a good practice to always touch a grounded metal object to discharge static electricity built up in your body.

Be sure to power down your system before adding or removing system components. Even if the system is in hibernate or standby states, data could be lost or memory could be damaged if power is still available to the system.

When installing or removing a memory module, hold it by the edge so as not to touch any contacts or chips. Be careful not to touch any internal computer terminals or compo- nents; the oil from your fingers could cause a short to the components.

Electrical equipment may be hazardous if misused. Operations of this product or similar products, must always be super- vised by an adult. Do not allow children access to the interior of any electrical products and do not permit them to handle any cables.

Caring for your LifeBook notebook

Your LifeBook notebook is a durable but sensitive elec- tronic device. Treat it with respect and care.

Make a habit of transporting it in a suitable carrying case.

Do not attempt to service the computer yourself.

Always follow installation instructions closely.

Keep it away from food and beverages.

To protect your notebook from damage and to opti- mize system performance, be sure to keep all air all vents unobstructed, clean, and clear of debris. This may require periodic cleaning, depending upon the environment in which the system is used.

Do not operate the notebook in areas where the air vents can be obstructed, such as in tight enclosures or on soft surfaces like a bed or cushion.

C a r e a n d M a i n t e n a n c e

If you accidentally spill liquid on your LifeBook note- book:

1.Turn it off.

2.Position it so that the liquid can run out.

3.Let it dry out for 24 hours, or longer if needed.

4.If your notebook will not boot after it has dried out, call your support representative.

Do not use your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook in a wet environment (near a bathtub, swimming pool).

Always use the AC adapter and batteries that are approved for your notebook.

Avoid exposure to sand, dust and other environmental hazards.

Do not expose your notebook to direct sunlight for long periods of time as temperatures above 140° F (60° C) may damage your notebook.

Keep the covers closed on the connectors and slots when they are not in use.

Do not put heavy or sharp objects on the computer.

If you are carrying your LifeBook notebook in a brief- case, or any other carrying case, make sure that there are no objects in the case pressing on the lid.

Never position your notebook such that the optical drive is supporting the weight of the notebook.

Do not drop your notebook.

Do not touch the screen with any sharp objects.

CLEANING YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK

Always disconnect the power plug. (Pull the plug, not the cord.)

Clean your LifeBook notebook with a damp, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasives or solvents.

Use a soft cloth to remove dust from the screen. Never use glass cleaners.

Always shut down the computer, unplug the power adapter, and remove the battery when cleaning or disin- fecting the computer exterior, keyboard or LCD display.

NOTE: Avoid wetting the thermal suede in all cases.
