Temperature Problems

✎Use the notebook only within the temperature ranges provided in the specifications section of your model-specific documentation.

Notebook feels abnormally hot

■Allow the notebook to cool down, then resume your work. Whenever you use the notebook, make sure that all vents are clear of obstructions. Soft surfaces (such as bedding, upholstery, carpeting, or thick clothing) or hard surfaces (such as an adjoining printer) may block the vents and cause overheating.

■Close all games and applications that you are not using.

Battery pack is warm after charging

No action is required. Warming occurs naturally during charging.
