Safety warning notice

WARNING!

To reduce the possibility of heat-related injuries or of overheating the computer, do not place the 

computer directly on your lap or obstruct the computer air vents. Use the computer only on a hard, flat surface. 
Do not allow another hard surface, such as an adjoining optional printer, or a soft surface, such as pillows or rugs 
or clothing, to block airflow. Also, do not allow the AC adapter to come into contact with the skin or a soft 
surface, such as pillows or rugs or clothing, during operation. The computer and the AC adapter comply with the 
user-accessible surface temperature limits defined by the International Standard for Safety of Information 
Technology Equipment (IEC 60950).
