Information on Safety, Cleaning, and Battery Maintenance

Safety

When setting up or operating Joybook, please pay special attention to the follow- ing:

1.Keep this manual in a safe place for easy reference when needed.

2.Make sure to follow all instructions and warnings related to the system.

3.Place Joybook on stable, level surface, and ensure that the ventilation holes are not obstructed.

4.Do not expose Joybook to rain or excess humidity, and keep it away from liq- uids (such as beverages, faucets, and so on).

5.Do not expose Joybook to direct sunlight, and keep it away from sources of heat (such as radiators, space heaters, stoves, and so on).

6.Do not expose Joybook to heavy impacts or strong vibrations. When closing the computer, do not use excessive force.

7.Do not place Joybook in environments where the temperature is below 0°C or above 50°C .

8.Do not place the computer in the area of strong magnetic fields.

9.Use an appropriate electrical outlet, and make sure that no heavy objects are placed on the AC adapter or power cord.

10.The AC adapter is a high-voltage component. Do not attempt to repair it on your own. If it becomes damaged, please contact an authorized BenQ distribu- tor or service center.

11.Make sure that the modem port is used only with a regular analog phone line. Do not connect a digital phone line to the modem port, as this will cause dam- age to the modem.

6.Do not expose the battery to moisture or rain.

7.Keep battery away from fire or other sources of extreme heat. Do not incinerate. Exposure of battery to extreme heat may result in an explosion.

8.Do not use AC adapters other than the one provided with the computer.

9.After an extended period of usage, the battery's ability to retain charge will gradually deteriorate-this is entirely normal. To replace an old battery, turn off the computer, and be sure to use a new battery from the same manufacturer.

10.Do not place the battery within reach of children, and keep well away from sources of fire.

11.Follow the local laws governing the disposal of batteries. As far as possible, submit used batteries to be recycled.

12.Use of improper batteries, or attempting to disassemble a battery, may result in explosions. Follow vendor recommendations in using batteries of the identical or equivalent type as replacements for worn-out batteries.

Cleaning Your Joybook

When cleaning Joybook, follow these steps:

1.Turn off Joybook, disconnect the AC adapter, and remove the battery.

2.Use a damp cloth to wipe the outer surface of the computer. Do not apply liquid or spray cleaners directly on the Joybook.

3.Do not use cleaners containing alcohol or acetone. Instead, use cleaning fluids specially formulated for LCD screens.

Battery Maintenance

1.Fully charge/discharge battery up to 4 cycles before achieving full capacity of a new battery.

2.Fully discharge and then fully charge the battery every two to three weeks for battery conditions.

3.Remove from the device and stored in a cool, dry, clean place if the battery will not be in use for a month or longer and recharge the battery after a storage period.

4.Do not short-circuit. A short-circuit may cause severe damage to the battery.

5.Do not drop, hit or otherwise abuse the battery as this may result in the expo- sure of the cell contents, which are corrosive.
