Things you must remember before working on your computer
Let your computer acclimate itself
Your notebook can easily stand temperature extremes but it doesn’t like rapid changes
in temperature, like going from the cold outdoors to a warm office. Rapid changes in
temperature can cause water droplets to condense inside your case, threatening to
damage the electronic parts inside.
After receiving your notebook when it’s hot or cold outside, try not to power up the
computer immediately, let the computer adjust to the room temperature gradually at
least for three to four hours.
If your system arrives in cold weather, do not apply power to the
computer or monitor until they have been allowed to come to room
temperature.
Heat, Cold, Humidity, and Glare
Find a suitable place for your computer that’s not too hot, too cold, too dark, or too
bright. Glare can make it hard to read the screen.

Try to avoid the computer components from being destroyed if it is over heated, so
try to allow plenty of room for air to circulate around the case.
Do not block the ventilation opening.
Do not place your computer in direct sunlight.
