Working with the notebook
Setting up the port replicator
Select a suitable location for the Port Replicator before setting it up.
Follow the instructions below when doing so:
•
Never place the port replicator on a soft surface (e.g. carpeting, upholstered furniture, bed).
This can block the air vents of the notebook and cause overheating and damage.
•
Place the port replicator on a stable,
fl
at and non-slip surface. Please note that the
port replicator’s rubber feet may mark certain types of surface.
•
Never place the port replicator and the mains adapter on a heat-sensitive surface.
•
Do not expose the port replicator to extreme environmental conditions.
Protect the port replicator from dust, humidity and heat.

When the notebook is connected to a Port Replicator, the operating system creates
a hardware pro

le for the "Docked" mode. In this pro
fi
le, for example, the setting is
saved as to which monitor was last used for output. This pro
fi
le will be loaded, as
soon as the notebook is connected to a Port Replicator of the same type.
