TOSHIBA WT200
General Precautions
TOSHIBA tablets are designed to optimize safety, minimize strain and withstand the rigors of portability. However, certain precautions should be observed to further reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the computer.
Be certain to read the general precautions below and to note the cautions included in the text of the manual.
Provide adequate ventilation
Always make sure your tablet 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 tablet is in Sleep Mode). In this condition, observe the following:
Never cover your tablet or AC adaptor with any object.
Never place your tablet or AC adaptor near a heat source, such as an electric blanket or heater.
Never cover or block the air vents.
Always operate your tablet on a hard flat surface. Using your computer on a carpet or other soft material can block the vents.
Always provide sufficient space around the tablet.
Overheating your tablet or AC adaptor could cause system failure, tablet or AC adaptor damage or a fire, possibly resulting in serious injury.
Creating a computer-friendly environment
To keep your computer in prime operating condition, protect your work area from:
Dust, moisture, and direct sunlight.
Equipment that generates a strong electromagnetic field, such as stereo speakers (other than speakers that are connected to the tablet) or speakerphones.
Rapid changes in temperature or humidity and sources of temperature change such as air conditioner vents or heaters.
Extreme heat, cold, or humidity. Liquids and corrosive chemicals.
Stress injury
Carefully read the Instruction Manual for Safety and Comfort. It contains information on the prevention of stress injuries to your hands and wrists that can be caused by extensive tablet use. It also includes information on work space design, posture and lighting that can help reduce physical stress.
