Notes on Use
This sectìon describes safety guidelines and precautions to help protect
your computer from potential damage.
On Handling the LCD Screen
□ Do not leave the LCD facing the sun as it can damage the LCD. Be
careful when using the computer near a window.
□ Do not scratch the LCD or exert pressure on it. This could cause
malfunction.
J Using the computer in low temperature conditions may produce a
residual image on the screen. This is not a malfunction. When the
computer returns to normal temperature, the screen returns to
normal.
J A residual image may appear on the screen if the same image is
displayed for a lengthy period of time. The residual image disappears
in a while. You can use a screen saver to prevent residual images.
□ The screen becomes warm during operation. This is normal and does
not indicate a malfunction.
wl The LCD is manufactured using high-precision technology. You may,
however, see tiny black points and/or bright points (red, blue, or
green) that continuously appear on the LCD. This is a normal result
of the manufacturing process and does not indicate a malfunction.
On the Power Source
J Your computer operates on 100V-240V AC 50/60 Hz.
_) Do not share the AC outlet with other power-consuming equipment,
such as a copying machine or shredder.
J You can purchase a power strip with a surge protector. This device
prevents damage to your computer caused by sudden power surges
such as those that may occur during an electrical storm.
-I Do not place heavy objects on the power cord.
