Precautions
Your computer is designed to provide optimum safety and
ease of use. You should observe certain precautions to
further reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the
computer.
Never allow any liquids to spill into any part of your
computer, and never expose the computer to rain, water,
seawater or moisture. Exposure to liquid or moisture can
cause electric shock or fire, resulting in damage or
serious injury. If any of these eventualities should
accidentally occur, immediately:
1. Turn off the computer.
2. Disconnect the AC adaptor from the power plug
socket and computer.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious
injury or permanent damage to the computer.
Do not turn on the power again until you have taken the
computer to an authorized service center.
❖Never turn off the computer if a drive light indicates a
drive is active.
Turning off the computer while it is reading from or
writing to a disk/disc or flash media may damage the
disk/disc or flash media, the drive, or both.
❖Keep the computer and disks away from objects that
generate strong magnetic fields, such as large stereo
speakers.
Information on some disks is stored magnetically.
Placing a magnet too close to a disk can erase important
files.
