„Other Important Tips

ƒYour computer modem might use only an analog telephone network, or public-switched telephone network (PSTN). Do not connect the modem to a PBX (private branch exchange) or any other digital telephone extension line because this could damage your modem. Analog phone lines are often used in homes, while digital phone lines are often used in hotels or office buildings. If you are not sure which kind of phone line you are using, contact your telephone company.

ƒYour computer might have both an Ethernet connector and a modem connector. If so, be sure to connect your communication cable to the correct one, so your connector is not damaged.

ƒRegister your Lenovo products with Lenovo (refer to the Web page: http://consumersupport.lenovo.com). This can help authorities return your computer to you if it is lost or stolen. Registering your computer also enables Lenovo to notify you about possible technical information and upgrades.

ƒOnly an authorized Lenovo repair technician should disassemble and repair your computer.

ƒDo not modify or tape the latches to keep the display open or closed.

ƒTake care not to turn your computer over while the AC adapter is plugged in. This could break the adapter plug.
