 Getting to Know Your NEC Versa 2200C   1-13

SYSTEM CARE

 The NEC Versa 2200C is a durable, dependable system
built for extensive use and travel. Follow these guidelines to
maintain the condition and performance of your computer.

Precautions

 Follow these precautions when using your NEC Versa
2200C and the AC adapter.

■  

Avoid dropping or bumping the computer or the AC
adapter.

■  

Do not stack heavy objects on the computer.

■  

Avoid moving the NEC Versa 2200C during system
operation, especially while the hard disk or diskette drive
is being accessed.

■  

When using the AC adapter, make sure the power source
falls within the system’s compatible range of 100–240
volts AC. Never use the AC adapter if the voltage falls
outside of this range. (Watch for this when traveling to
foreign countries.)

■  

Turn computer power off before attaching or removing
non-plug and play devices.

■  

Avoid using the computer or AC adapter for extended
periods in direct sunlight.

■  

Do not use the system in humid or dusty environments.

■  

Avoid exposing the NEC Versa 2200C or AC adapter to
extreme changes in temperature or humidity. If it is un-
avoidable, allow your NEC Versa to adjust to room
temperature before using.

■  

When cleaning the system, use a soft, clean, dry cloth.
Avoid wiping the display surface with abrasive material,
including a rough cloth.
