Appendix B. Handling Tips
Handling Tips
By using common sense and by following these handling tips, you
will get the most use and enjoyment out of your computer for a long
time to come.
This appendix provides tips for handling notebook computers in
general. Some descriptions might not suit your situation. Check
your shipping checklist to confirm the items you get with your
computer.
Notebook computers are precision machines that require a bit of
careful handling. Though your computer is designed and tested to
be a durable notebook computer that functions reliably in normal
work environments, you need to use some common sense in
handling it.
ThinkPad Don'ts
Do not subject your computer to physical punishment, such as
dropping or bumping.
Do not place heavy objects on your computer.
Do not spill liquids into your computer.
Do not use your computer in or near water (to avoid the danger
of electrical shock).
Do not pack your computer in a tightly packed suitcase or bag.
Your LCD might be damaged.
A scratchlike marking on your LCD might be a stain transferred from the keyboard (including from the TrackPoint
stick) when the cover was pressed from the outside. Wipe such a stain gently with a dry soft cloth. If the stain
remains, moisten the cloth with LCD cleaner and wipe the stain again. Be sure to dry the LCD before closing it.
Do not disassemble your computer. Only an authorized IBM
ThinkPad repair technician should disassemble and repair your
computer.
Do not scratch, twist, hit, or push the surface of your computer
display.
Do not place any objects between the display and keyboard.
Do not pick up or hold your computer by the display. When
picking up your open computer, hold it by the bottom (keyboard)
half.
