USING YOUR NOTEBOOK COMPUTER

Placement of your notebook PC

It is important that you choose a good location to set up your notebook so that both you and your new computer are safe. Make sure your working position is comfortable and that it encourages good posture while you are at your notebook. Proper placement of your notebook is essential to avoid repetitive stress-related injuries. Use the computer on a flat surface so that you can comfortably view the display and use the keyboard and trackpad without slouching. While typing try to hold your hands slightly above the keyboard and keep your wrists parallel with the floor. Take regular breaks from using your notebook to rest your eyes and stretch your muscles.

There are ventilation holes on the rear and left side of your notebook that should be kept clear at all times. Your notebook contains a fan that will operate if the computer reaches a preset temperature, and the vents are an important part of this cooling system. The fan may turn on under normal usage conditions and does not indicate a problem with your notebook.

Whenever possible, use a surge protector to

prevent power surges from

 

damaging your notebook and accessories, and

a grounded 3-hole outlet to

5

prevent electrical shorts or fires.
