If you use your Fujitsu LifeBook carefully, you will
increase its life and reliability. This section provides
some tips for looking after the LifeBook and its devices.
FUJITSU LIFEBOOK
Caring for your Fujitsu LifeBook
■
Your Fujitsu LifeBook is a durable but sensitive elec-
tronic device. Treat it with respect and care.
■
Make a habit of transporting it in a suitable carrying
case.
■
Do not attempt to service the computer yourself.
Always follow installation instructions closely.
■
Keep it away from food and beverages.
■
If you accidentally spill liquid on your LifeBook:
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 LifeBook will not boot after it has dried
out, call your support representative.
■
Do not use your Fujitsu LifeBook in a wet environ-
ment (near a bathtub, swimming pool).
■
Always use the AC adapter and batteries that are
approved for your LifeBook.
■
Avoid exposure to sand, dust and other
environmental hazards.
■
Do not expose your Fujitsu LifeBook to direct sunlight
for long periods of time as temperatures above 140° F
(60° C) may damage your LifeBook.
■
Keep the covers closed on the connectors and slots
when they are not in use.
■
Do not put heavy or sharp objects on the computer.
■
If you are carrying your Fujitsu LifeBook in a brief-
case, or any other carrying case, make sure that there
are no objects in the case pressing on the lid.
■
Never position your LifeBook such that the DVD drive
is supporting the weight of the LifeBook.

■
Do not touch the screen with any sharp objects.
Cleaning your Fujitsu LifeBook
■
Always disconnect the power plug. (Pull the plug, not
the cord.)

Clean your Fujitsu LifeBook with a damp, lint-free
cloth. Do not use abrasives or solvents.

Never use glass cleaners.
Storing your Fujitsu LifeBook
■
If storing your LifeBook for a month or longer, turn
your Fujitsu LifeBook off and remove all Lithium ion
batteries.
■
Store your Fujitsu LifeBook and batteries separately. If
you store your LifeBook with a battery installed, the
battery will discharge, and battery life will be reduced.

experience system software problems while

detector. Have your LifeBook hand-inspected by secu-
rity personnel. You can however, put your Fujitsu Life-
Book through a properly tuned X-ray machine. To
avoid problems, place your LifeBook close to the
entrance of the machine and remove it as soon as possi-
ble or have your LifeBook hand-inspected by security
personnel. Security officials may require you to turn
your LifeBook On. Make sure you have a charged bat-
tery on hand.
■
When traveling with the hard drive removed, wrap the
drive in a non-conducting materials (cloth or paper). If
you have the drive checked by hand, be ready to install
the drive if needed. Never put your hard drive through a
metal detector. Have your hard drive hand-inspected by
security personnel. You can however, put your hard
drive through a properly tuned X-ray machine.
■
Take the necessary plug adapters if you're traveling
overseas. Check the following diagram to determine
which plug adapter you'll need or ask your travel agent.
