NOTICE:

The network connector is slightly larger than the modem connector. Do not plug a telephone cable into the network connector.

HINT:

The computer turns on the fans only when the computer gets hot. They may run most of the time or very seldom, depending on your use of the

computer. Because the fans spin at a high rate of speed, they may make a noise. This noise is normal and does not indicate a problem with the fans or
the computer.

CAUTION:

Do not block, push objects into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air vents. Doing so can damage the computer or cause a fire.

NOTICE:

To avoid damaging the computer, wait 5 seconds after turning off the computer before you disconnect an external device.
