the.computer.upright.or.turn.it.over..If.the.computer.is.exposed.to.an.extremely.strong.impact,.it.may.become.dam-
aged.

. As.the.computer.can.become.hot.during.operation,.keep.it.away.from.items.that.are.sensitive.to.heat.
Handling cautions
This.computer.is.designed.to.minimize.shock.to.parts.such.as.the.LCD.and.the.hard.disk.drive,.but.no.warranty.is.pro-
vided.against.any.trouble.caused.by.shock...Be.extremely.careful.when.handling.the.computer.
l
. When.carrying.the.computer:
.Turn.off.the.computer.
.Remove.all.external.devices,.cables,.Express.Cards.and.other.protruding.objects.
.Do.not.drop.or.hit.the.computer.against.solid.objects.
.Do.not.grip.the.display.part.
l
. When.you.board.an.airplane,.take.the.computer.with.you.and.never.put.it.in.your.checked.luggage..When.using.the.
computer.on.airplane,.follow.the.airline’s.instructions.
l
. When.carrying.a.spare.battery,.put.it.in.a.plastic.bag.to.protect.its.terminals.
l
. Use.only.the.included.stylus.to.touch.the.touchscreen..Do.not.place.any.object.on.its.surface.and.do.not.press.
down.strongly.with.sharp-pointed.or.hard.objects.that.may.leave.marks.(e.g.,.nails,.pencils.and.ball.point.pens).
l
. Do.not.use.the.touchscreen.when.dust.or.dirt.(e.g.,.oil).is.on.the.screen..Otherwise.foreign.particles.on.the.screen/
stylus.can.scratch.the.screen.surface.or.obstruct.the.stylus.operation.
l
. Use.the.stylus.only.for.touching.the.screen..Using.it.for.any.other.purpose.may.damage.the.stylus.and.result.in.
scratches.on.the.screen.
n
When using peripheral devices
Follow.these.instructions.and.the.Reference.Manual.to.avoid.any.damage.to.the.devices..Carefully.read.the.instruction.
manuals.of.the.peripheral.devices.
l
. Use.the.peripheral.devices.conforming.to.the.computer’s.specifications.
l
. Connect.to.the.connectors.in.the.correct.direction.
l
. If.it.is.hard.to.insert,.do.not.try.forcibly.but.check.the.connector’s.shape,.direction,.alignment.of.pins,.etc.
l
. If.screws.are.included,.fasten.them.securely.
l
. Remove.the.cables.when.you.carry.the.computer..Do.not.pull.the.cables.forcibly.
n
Preventing your computer from unauthorized use via wireless LAN/Bluetooth/wireless WAN
<Only.for.model.with.wireless.LAN/Bluetooth/wireless.WAN>
l
. Before.using.wireless.LAN/Bluetooth/wireless.WAN,.make.the.appropriate.security.settings.such.as.data.encryp-
tion.

Battery Recalibration
l
. The.battery.recalibration.may.take.a.long.time.due.to.the.large.battery.capacity..This.is.not.a.malfunction.
