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.
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.

Suitable Place To Work
Your computer will run well wherever you’re comfortable but extremes
of temperature and humidity can be challenging to your system’s
parts. There are some things you can tolerate that the computer can’t
– things like static electricity, dust, water, steam and oil. In case you
decide to pull over for roadside computing, try to choose a clean,
comfortable work area for your system. If you are running your system
for the first time on battery power, remove the battery from the
package, install it into the system and recharge the battery to fully
prepare for service.
