Do not leave the base of your computer in contact with your lap
or any part of your body for an extended period when the
computer is functioning or when the battery is charging. Your
computer dissipates some heat during normal operation. This
heat is a function of the level of system activity and battery
charge level.
ThinkPad do's
Store your CD-ROM drive in the CD carrying case and the
diskette drive in its enclosure.
When installing your hard disk, diskette, or CD-ROM drive, follow
the instructions in this online book and apply pressure only
where needed on the device.
Treat your computer like a precision piece of electronic
machinery.
Retain and store packing materials safely out of reach of children
to prevent the risk of suffocation from plastic bags.

it is lost or stolen. Registering your computer also enables IBM
to notify you about possible upgrades.

current information about your computer.
