General Precautions

TOSHIBA computers are designed to optimize safety, minimize strain and withstand the rigours of portability. However, certain precautions should be observed to further reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the computer.

Be certain to read the general precautions below and to note the cautions included in the text of the manual.

Stress injury

Carefully read the Safety Instruction Manual. It contains information on prevention of stress injuries to your hands and wrists that can be caused by extensive keyboard use.

Heat injury

Avoid prolonged physical contact with the bottom of the computer. If the computer is used for long periods, its surface can become very warm. While the temperature will not feel hot to the touch, if you maintain physical contact with the computer for a long time (if you rest the computer on your lap, for example) your skin might suffer low-heat injury.

If the computer has been used for a long time, avoid direct contact with the metal plate supporting the I/O ports. It can become hot.

The surface of the AC adapter can become hot when in use. This condition does not indicate a malfunction. If you need to transport the AC adapter, disconnect it and let it cool before moving it.

Do not lay the AC adapter on a material that is sensitive to heat. The material could be damaged.

Pressure or impact damage

Do not apply heavy pressure to the computer or subject it to strong impact.

Excessive pressure or impact can damage computer components or otherwise cause malfunctions.
