Maintaining and Caring for Your Notebook
EN-78
Do not cover or block any ventilation openings on the notebook. For
example, do not place the notebook on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar
surface. Overheating may occur, which could result in damage to your
notebook.
Keep your notebook away from objects that are vulnerable to heat damage,
as the device can become very hot during operation.
Keep your notebook at least 13 cm (5 inches) away from electrical
appliances that can generate a strong magnetic field such as a TV,
refrigerator, motor, or a large audio speaker.
Avoid moving your notebook abruptly from a cold to a warm place. A
temperature difference of more than 10°C (18°F) may cause condensation
inside the unit, which may damage storage media.
Display and Touchscreen Guidelines
Use your finger or the included stylus on the touchscreen surface. Using a
sharp or metallic object, such as a pen or pencil, may scratch and damage
the display, thereby causing errors.
Use a soft cloth to remove dirt on the display. The touchscreen surface has a
special protective coating that prevents dirt from sticking to it. Not using a
soft cloth may cause damage to the special protective coating on the
touchscreen surface.
Turn off the notebook power when cleaning the display. Cleaning the display
with the power on may cause improper operation.
Do not use excessive force on the display. Avoid placing objects on top of
the display as this may cause the glass to break, thereby damaging the
device.
Expect a slower response time when using the touchscreen at lower
temperatures (less than 5°C or 41°F). A normal response time may be
restored upon returning to room temperature.
Refer to Windows online support for instructions on recalibrating the
touchscreen display when there is a noticeable problem with the
touchscreen function (e.g., improper display resolution or unresponsive
touchscreen).
LCD image sticking occurs when a fixed pattern is displayed on the screen
for a prolonged period of time. You can avoid the problem by limiting the
amount of static content on the display. It is recommended that you either
use a screen saver or turn off the display when it is not in use.
To maximize the life of the backlight display, allow the backlight to
automatically turn off as a result of power management.
