Cables
The EMC performance of the system is guaranteed only if the cable and interface use efficient shielding.
The use of shielded interface cable is required for USB, IEEE1394, serial, printer, game, analogue or digital
audio/video, Ethernet LAN, PS2, TV or FM antennas, and generally all high speed cable’ interfaces.
Only Ethernet LAN or RTC modem cables can have lengths exceeding 3 meters.
For Ethernet LAN cable, use FTP shielded cables only (cat
≥
5).
Heat build-up
The AC adapter and the underside of the computer can become heated after prolonged use. Sustained
physical contact with either should be avoided. Contact with either should be avoided.
Battery
• Replacing batteries
A lithium battery in some computers maintains system configuration information. In the event that the
battery fails to maintain system configuration information, we recommend that you replace the battery.
• Battery Disposal
Ultimate disposal of the batteries should be handled according to all national laws and regulations. Do not
place used batteries in your regular waste: the incineration, landfilling or mixing of batteries with the
municipal solid waste stream is prohibited by law in most countries. Contact your local waste management
officials for other information regarding the environmentally sound collection, recycling, and disposal of the
batteries.
There is a danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or
equivalent type recommended by the
manufacturer.
