General Precautions

TOSHIBA computers are designed to optimize safety, minimize strain and with- stand the rigors of portability. However, certain precautions should be observed to further reduce the risk of personal injury, damage to the computer or impared performance.

Be certain to read the general precautions below and to note the cautions included in the text of the manual.

Stress injury

Carefully read the Instruction Manual for Safety & Comfort. It contains informa- tion on prevention of stress injuries to your hands and wrists than can be caused by extensive keyboard use. Chapter 3, Getting Started, also includes information on work space design, posture and lighting that can help reduce physical stress.

Heat injury

◆Avoid prolonged physical contact with the computer. If the computer is used for long periods, its surface can become very warm. While the temperature will not feel hot to the touch, if you maintain physical contact with the com- puter for a long time (if you rest the computer on your lap, or if you keep your hands on the palm rest, for example) your skin might suffer low-heat injury.

◆If the computer has been used for a long time, avoid direct contact with the metal plate supporting the I/O ports. It can become hot.

◆The surface of the AC adaptor can become hot when in use. This condition does not indicate a malfunction. If you need to transport the AC adaptor, dis- connect it and let it cool before moving it.

◆Do not lay the AC adaptor on a material that is sensitive to heat. The mate- rial could be damaged.

Pressure or impact damage

Do not apply heavy pressure to the computer or subject it to strong impact. Excessive pressure or impact can cause damage to computer components or oth- erwise cause malfunctions.
