Caution

mIf you have a problem with your computer and nothing in the computer manuals solves the problem, take the computer to your Apple-authorized dealer or service provider. Attempting to repair the computer yourself may void the limited warranty.

mDo not move the computer when you can hear its hard disk spinning. When you put the computer to sleep, wait until the screen is blank before moving the computer.

mUse only the power adapter supplied with your computer, or an identical model. Adapters designed for other electronic devices may look similar, but they may not work with your computer and may damage it.

mNever force a connector into a port. Make sure that the connector matches the port and that it’s right-side up. If the connector and port do not join easily, they do not match.

mDo not use the computer in wet or dusty environments.

mKeep dirt and liquids away from the ports on the back panel, the keyboard, and the trackball. If you spill any food or liquid onto the computer, shut it down immediately and unplug it before cleaning up the spill. Depending on what you spilled and how much got into the computer, you may have to bring the computer to an Apple-authorized service provider for cleaning.

mDo not touch the screen with any sharp or pointed objects.

mUse only the battery supplied with your computer. Batteries designed for other portable computers may look similar, but they may not work with your computer and may damage it.

mWhen recharging the battery, use only the power adapter supplied with your computer, or an identical model. Adapters designed for other electronic devices may not work with your equipment and may damage the computer or the recharger.

mDo not leave batteries in hot locations (such as the trunk of a car).
