Safety Instructions
Use the following safety guidelines to help protect yourself and your notebook.
General Warnings
• Do not operate your portable computer for an extended period of time with the base
resting directly on your body. With extended operation, heat can potentially build up in the
base. Allowing sustained contact with the skin could cause discomfort or, eventually, a
burn.
• Excessive sound pressure from earphones or headphones can cause hearing damage or
loss. Please adjustment of the volume control as well as the equalizer to settings other
than the center position may increase the earphones or headphones output voltage, and
therefore the sound pressure level.
• Do not attempt to service the computer yourself. Always follow installation instructions
closely.
• To avoid personal injury from electric shock or fire:
- Completely power down the computer when replacing memory modules, WLAN, BT,
cleaning the computer, its components, or chassis, or performing operations requiring
similar steps. To do this, first turn the power off at the power switch, remove the
battery, and then disconnect the AC adapter from the electrical outlet or from any
other type of external power source, such as an external battery.
- Do not operate the computer near water, for example, near a bathtub, kitchen sink or
laundry tub, in a wet basement, by a swimming pool, or in the rain.
- Do not connect or disconnect any cables or perform maintenance or reconfiguration of
this product during an electrical storm.
- Avoid using the wired modem or LAN during an electrical storm, as a remote risk of
electric shock from lightning exists.
- Do not push objects into the air vents or openings of your notebook or accessories.
Doing so can short out interior components and may cause fire or electric shock.
- When installing memory modules, ground you by touching a grounded conductive
surface, such as a device with a grounded plug. Avoid touching the pins and leads on
the memory module or internal circuitry of the computer.
• When setting up the computer for work, place it on a level surface.
• Handle components with care. Hold a component such as a memory module by its edges,
not its pins.
