About Handling the Computer
Your computer uses high-frequency radio signals and may cause interference to radio or TV reception. If this occurs,
relocate the computer a suitable distance away from the TV or radio equipment.
Do not place your Sony computer in a location subject to:
Heat sources, such as radiators or air ducts
Direct sunlight
Excessive dust
Mechanical vibration or shock
Strong magnets or speakers that are not magnetically shielded
Ambient temperature of more than 95ºF (35ºC) or less than 50ºF (10ºC)
High humidity, moisture, or rain
Do not place electronic equipment near your computer. The computer's electromagnetic field may cause a
malfunction.
Provide adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up. Do not place your computer on loose surfaces
(such as rugs or blankets) or near materials (such as curtains or draperies) that may block its ventilation slots.
Leave a space of at least 8 inches from the back panel of your computer.
Clean the cabinet with a soft, dry cloth or a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use
any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent such as alcohol or benzine, as it may damage the finish of
your Sony computer.
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, keyboard, or mouse, shut down your computer and then
unplug it. You may want to have the computer checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.
Use only specified peripheral equipment and interface cables; otherwise, problems may result.
Do not use cut or damaged connection cables.
Always switch the power off before connecting your computer to peripheral equipment; otherwise, damage may
occur to the integrated circuits in your computer.
Your computer, keyboard, and mouse consist of high-precision electronic parts. Do not drop them or bump them
against other objects.
Your Sony computer does not work with party lines, cannot be connected to a coin-operated telephone, and may
not work with multiple telephone lines or a private branch exchange (PBX).
If the telephone company makes a service call to your home or office and determines that your computer is
responsible for the problem, the telephone company may bill you for the service call. If you do not disconnect your
computer when it is adversely affecting the telephone line, the telephone company has the right to disconnect your
service until you correct the problem.
Moisture condensation
If your computer is brought directly from a cold location to a warm one, moisture may condense inside your computer. In
this case, allow at least an hour before turning on your computer. If any problem occurs, unplug your computer, and contact
your Sony Service Center.
Wireless devices
Wireless devices, such as a wireless keyboard or mouse, requires unobstructed communication with your computer for
proper operation.
Do not exceed a maximum distance of 2 feet between your VAIO
®
computer and your wireless device.
Verify that any infrared receiver(s) on the computer or wireless device is free of obstructions that may prevent
proper operation.
Confirm that the supplied AA batteries are properly installed in the wireless device.
