Take note of the following when selecting a location for your computer:

•Do not put your computer near any equipment that might cause electromagnetic or radio frequency interference, such as radio transmitters, televisions, copy machines or heating and air-conditioning equipment.

•Avoid dusty areas and extremes of temperature and humidity.

•You may place your computer beside your desk or under your table, as long as it does not block the space you need for working and moving.

Warning: Do not cover the top mesh to prevent overheating.

•Your computer comes with a stand that can be easily installed or removed with a coin. Use the stand if you want to place your computer vertically.
