mDo not put anything (for instance, a cup) on top of the tray when it is open.

mDo not force the tray open by hand.

mKeep your computer equipment away from any source of liquid (such as wash basins, bathtubs, and shower stalls). If you drink coffee or other beverages while you’re at your computer, take care not to spill.

mAvoid exposing your equipment to damp or wet weather. If your system is near a window, be sure the window is closed in rainy weather.
