Precautions
You can use your computer under a wide range of environmental conditions. However, to ensure long
use and continued high performance, consider the following factors when setting up your computer:
z
Follow all warnings and instructions noted in this documentation and in Windows Help and
Support, found on the Start Menu.
z
The first time you use your computer, we recommend that you carefully read the section on
Power
Management
to familiarize yourself with some basic battery information and to ensure optimum
performance
z
There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or
equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
z
Do not open the RAM door by yourself.
z
Unplug the computer from the power outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Do
not use aerosols, solvents, or strong detergents
z
Slots and openings in the computer case are for ventilation purposes. Do not block or cover these
openings or the system could overheat
z
On the bottom of the GoBook III, there is a label with information on the power requirements of
this system. These requirements must be followed. If you are unsure of your local power supply,
consult your dealer or local Power Company
z
Do not step on or place anything on the power cord
z
If you use the computer with an extension cord, ensure that the total ampere ratings of all the
devices sharing the extension do not exceed the rating of the extension cord or the rating of the
wall outlet
z
Unless instructed, never push foreign objects into the computer through any of the slots or
openings. Dangerous voltages are present, which could cause electric shock, fire, or damage
sensitive components
z
For best results, use a power strip with a built-in surge protector. Do not use inferior extension
cords as this may result in damage to your computer
