Maintaining Your Hardware
Your notebook is designed as a durable product. To maintain its performance and promote longevity, follow these guidelines:
■Carry and store your notebook in a portable carrying case.
ÄCAUTION: To prevent possible damage to the display, do not place anything on top of the notebook even when it is in the carrying case.
■Keep Zip disks, diskettes and modular disk drives away from magnetic fields, which can erase your data.
■Keep liquids and excessive moisture away from your notebook and keyboard to prevent costly repairs.
ÅWARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to internal components, do not allow liquids to drip into the notebook keyboard.
■Avoid exposing your notebook to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, or ultraviolet light for extended periods of time.
■Use your notebook only on a solid, flat surface. Make sure that vents, which cool internal components, are unobstructed.
ÄCAUTION: To prevent overheating, do not obstruct the vents. Do not allow a hard surface, such as an adjoining optional printer, or a soft surface, such as fabric or carpet, to block the airflow.
