Basic Care and Handling Tips
Basic Care and Handling TipsBasic Care and Handling Tips
Basic Care and Handling Tips
Protect the computer from extremely low or high temperatures. Let the
computer warm (or cool) to room temperature before using it.
Keep the computer away from magnetic forces (some airline tray tables
are magnetic, do not set your notebook on top of them. Doing so can
destroy the data on your hard drive).
Keep the computer dry.
Do not wipe the computer with a wet cloth or pour fluid onto it.
Protect the computer from being bumped or dropped.
Check the computer for condensation.
If condensation is present, allow it to evaporate before switching on the
computer.
Keep the computer away from dust, sand and dirt.
Note
For information on the specification of your notebook, please refer to the System Configuration Label on the
packaging box that comes with your system.
Note
The illustrations, colours and pictures shown are for illustration purposes. They may vary slightly from
country to country and the unit you purchase.
Caution
Before you connect or disconnect the power cord at the AC Port of your computer, please ensure that the
power plug is disconnected from the wall outlet.
WARNING
Do not place this notebook on your lap and / or allow it to be in contact with any part of your body while
operating.

System Care
System CareSystem Care
System Care
Follow these guidelines to maintain the condition and performance of your computer.
Caution
Immediately turn off and unplug the notebook under the following conditions:
• The power cord is damaged or frayed.
• Liquid spills on or into the notebook.
• Someone drops the notebook or damages the casing.
Precautions for Notebook Use
Take these precautions when using your notebook and AC adapter.
•Be aware that your notebook may radiate heat when used for an extended period of time.
•Avoid dropping or bumping the computer or the AC adapter.
•Do not stack heavy objects on the computer, the AC adapter, or the battery packs.
•Do not place items near the notebook that could block air vents and cause overheating.
•Avoid moving the notebook during notebook operation, especially while the hard disk, floppy disk, or
optical disc drive is being accessed.
•When using the AC adapter, make sure the power source falls within the notebook's compatibility
range. Never use the AC adapter if the voltage falls outside this range. (Watch for this when
travelling to other countries.)
•Turn computer power off before attaching or removing non-plug and play devices.
•Disconnect the notebook from the electrical outlet if it is not going to be used for a long time. This
will avoid damage by transient over-voltage.
•Do not attempt to disassemble the computer.
•Do not push any foreign objects into the notebook bays, connectors or slots.
•Do not set the computer on top of a magnetised area. Doing so can destroy the data on your hard
disk drive. (Some airline tray tables are magnetic.)
•Avoid using the computer or AC adapter for extended periods in direct sunlight.
•Do not use the notebook in humid or dusty environments.
•Keep liquids and food away from the notebook.
•Turn computer power off before cleaning it.
•Avoid exposing the notebook or AC adapter to extreme changes in temperature or humidity. If it is
unavoidable, allow your notebook to adjust to room temperature before use.
•When cleaning the notebook, use a soft, clean, dry cloth. Avoid wiping the display surface with
abrasive material, including rough fabric. Do not use a cleaning solution; this may damage the
notebook's plastic surface.
•If the AC adapter becomes extremely hot, unplug the adapter and let it cool.
•Be sure to follow these power cord safety tips:
o Unplug by gripping the plug only; do not pull on the cable.
o Place the power cord such that it cannot be tripped or stepped on, and do not place items
directly on the power cord.
o Use an electrical outlet that is as close as possible to the computer.

- 8 -
Storage Requirements
Store the computer and AC adapter in an environment that meets the following conditions:
If the temperature of the notebook suddenly rises or falls (for example, when you move the notebook from a
cold place to a warm place), vapour condenses inside the notebook. Turning on the notebook under such
conditions can damage the internal notebook components.
Before turning on the notebook, wait until the notebook's internal temperature stablises with the new
environment and any internal moisture has evaporated.
• Operate and store your notebook within the recommended temperatures and humidity levels (refer
to the “System Components” section for more information).
•
Keep the storage area free from vibration and magnetic fields.
•
Keep the notebook and its components away from organic solvents or corrosive gases.
•
Avoid leaving the notebook and its components in direct sunlight or near heat sources.
Routine Cleaning
Clean or dust your notebook as follows:
Caution
Never use harsh solutions, household cleaners, or spray cleaners that contain caustic materials on the
notebook computer. These cleaners are usually high in alkalinity which is measured in pH. Using these
cleaners can cause the plastic surface to crack or discolour.
•
LCD screen - carefully wipe the LCD screen with a soft cloth or a screen wipe designed for that
purpose. Special screen wipes are available from your local computer dealer.
•
Notebook case - we recommend you carefully wipe the case with a slightly damp, dry cloth.
