• To help protect your computer from sudden, transient increases and decreases in electrical power,
use a surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
• Ensure that nothing rests on your computer’s cables and that the cables are not located where they
can be stepped on or tripped over.
• Do not push any objects into the openings of your computer. Doing so can cause fire or electric
shock by shorting out interior components.
• Keep your computer away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling vents. Avoid
placing loose papers underneath your computer; do not place your computer in a closed-in wall unit
or on a bed, sofa, or rug.
• Do not spill food or liquids on your computer.
• Do not use your computer during an electrical storm unless the AC adapter cable has been
disconnected from the electrical outlet.
• When you use the AC adapter to run the computer, place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, such
as a desk top or on the floor.
• The AC adapter may become hot during normal operation of your computer. Use care when
handling the adapter during or immediately after operation.
