Important information on your computer’s cooling fan

Your computer may have a CPU cooling fan that cools the CPU by drawing outside air into the computer.

Always make sure your computer and AC adaptor have adequate ventilation and are protected from overheating when the power is turned on or when an AC adaptor is connected to a power outlet (even if your computer is in Sleep mode). In this condition, observe the following:

❖Never cover your computer or AC adaptor with any object.

❖Never place your computer or AC adaptor near a heat source, such as an electric blanket or heater.

❖Never cover or block the air vents including those located at the underside of the computer.

❖Always operate your computer on a hard flat surface. Using your computer on a carpet or other soft material can block the vents located at the underside of the computer.

Overheating your computer or AC adaptor could cause system failure, computer or AC adaptor damage or a fire, possibly resulting in serious injury.

Read the “Provide adequate ventilation” section in the “Instruction Manual for Safety and Comfort” that is shipped with your computer.

NOTE The cooling fan location will vary depending on the computer.
