Troubleshooting

7 - 8 Power

7

The computer feels too 
hot.

Make sure the computer is properly ventilated and the vents/fan intakes are not blocked. If 
this doesn’t cool it down, put the system into 

Hibernate

 mode or turn it off for an hour. 

Make sure the computer isn’t sitting on a thermal surface (see 

“Overheating” on page 1 - 

16

). Make sure you’re using the correct adapter. 

Make sure that your notebook is completely powered off before putting it into a travel bag 
(or any such container). Putting a notebook which is powered on in a travel bag may cause 
the vents/intakes to be blocked.
