Other important tips

vYour 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.

vYour 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. See your on-board help system for information on the location of these connectors (press the Access IBM button to open ThinkVantage Productivity Center).

vRegister your ThinkPad products with Lenovo (refer to the Web page: www.lenovo.com/register/). 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.

vOnly an authorized ThinkPad repair technician should disassemble and repair your computer.

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

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

vTurn off your computer if you are replacing a device in a device bay, or else verify that the device is warm-or hot-swappable.

vIf you exchange drives in your computer, reinstall the plastic bezel faces (if supplied).

vStore your external and removable hard disk, diskette, CD, DVD, and CD-RW/DVD drives in the appropriate containers or packaging when they are not being used.

vBefore you install any of the following devices, touch a metal table or a grounded metal object. This action reduces any static electricity from your body. The static electricity could damage the device.
