Using the Computer Safely

When setting up or operating the computer, please pay special atten-
tion to the following:

1.

Keep this manual in a safe place for easy reference when needed.             

2.

Make sure you follow all instructions and warnings related to the system.

3.

Place the computer on a stable, level surface, and ensure that the 
ventilation holes are not obstructed.

4.

Do not expose the computer to rain or excess humidity, and keep it 
away from liquids (such as beverages, taps, etc.)

5.

Do not expose the computer to direct sunlight, and keep it away from 
sources of heat (such as radiators, space heaters, stoves, etc.)

6.

Do not expose the computer to heavy impacts or strong vibrations. 
When closing the computer, do not use excessive force.

7.

Do not place the computer in environments where the temperature is 
below 0°C or above 50

°

C.

8.

Do not place the computer within a strong magnetic field.

9.

Use an appropriate electrical outlet, and make sure that no heavy objects 
are placed on the AC adapter or power cord.

10.

The AC adapter is a high-voltage component. Do not attempt to repair 
it on your own. If it becomes damaged, please contact an authorised 
BenQ distributor or service centre.

11.

Make sure that the modem port is used only with a regular analogue 
phone line. Do not connect a digital phone line to the modem port, as 
this will cause damage to the modem.

Battery Maintenance

1.

Do not use AC adapters other than the one provided with the 
computer.

2.

After an extended period of usage, the battery's ability to retain charge 
will gradually deteriorate—this is entirely normal. To replace an old 
battery, turn off the computer, and be sure to use a new battery from 
the same manufacturer.

3.

Do not place the battery within reach of children, and keep well away 
from sources of fire.

4.

Follow the local laws governing the disposal of batteries. As far as 
possible, submit used batteries to be recycled.

5.

Use of improper batteries, or attempting to disassemble a battery, may 
result in explosions. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations in 
using batteries of an identical or equivalent type as replacements for 
worn-out batteries.

Cleaning Your Computer

When cleaning the computer, follow these steps:

1.

Turn off the computer, disconnect the AC adapter, and remove the 
battery. 

2.

Use a damp cloth to wipe the outer surface of the computer. Do not 
apply liquid or spray cleaners directly on the computer.

3.

Do not use cleaners containing alcohol or acetone. Instead, use cleaning 
fluids specially formulated for LCD screens.
