Precautions
The CF-18 was developed based on thorough research into the
real-world portable computing environments. Exhaustive pursuit
of usability and reliability under harsh conditions led to innova-
tions such has the magnesium alloy exterior, vibration damped
hard disk drive and floppy disk drive, flexible internal connec-
tions. The CF-18’s outstanding engineering has been tested us-
ing the strict MIL-STD- 810F (for vibration and shock) and IP
(for dust and water) based procedures.
As with any portable computer device precautions should be taken
to avoid any damage. The following usage and handling proce-
dures are recommended.
Before putting the computer away, be sure to wipe off any moisture.
