Caring for your LifeBook
■
Your notebook/Tablet PC is a durable but sensitive
electronic device. Treat it with care.
■
Make a habit of transporting it in a suitable carrying
case.
■
To protect your notebook/Tablet PC from damage and
to optimize system performance, be sure to
keep all air
all vents unobstructed
,
clean, and clear of debris
. This
may require periodic cleaning, depending upon the
environment in which the system is used.
■
Do not operate the system in areas where the air vents
can be obstructed, such as in tight enclosures or on
soft surfaces like a bed or cushion.
■
Do not attempt to service the computer yourself. Any
unauthorized service performed on the computer will
void the warranty.
■
Always follow installation instructions closely.
■
Keep it away from food and beverages.
■
If you accidentally spill liquid on your notebook/
Tablet PC:
1. Turn it off.
2. Position it so that the liquid can run out.
3. Let it dry out for 24 hours, or longer if needed.
4. If your system will not boot after it has dried out,
call your support representative.
■
Do not use your notebook/Tablet PC in a wet environ-
ment (near a bathtub, swimming pool).
■
Always use the AC adapter and batteries that are
approved for your system.

Avoid exposure to sand, dust and other environmental
hazards.
