- Care and Maintenance
•
Never put your notebook through a metal detector. Have your notebook hand-inspected by security
personnel. You can however, put your notebook through a properly tuned X-ray machine. To avoid
problems, place your notebook close to the entrance of the machine and remove it as soon as
possible or have your notebook hand-inspected by security personnel. Security officials may
require you to turn your notebook on, so make sure you have a charged battery on hand.
•
Take the necessary plug adapters if you're traveling overseas. Check the following diagram to
determine which plug adapter you'll need or ask your travel agent.

Caring for your Batteries
•
Always handle batteries carefully.
•
Do not short-circuit the battery terminals (that is, do not touch both terminals with a metal object).
Do not carry lose batteries in a pocket or purse where they may mix with coins, keys, or other metal
objects. Doing so may cause an explosion or fire.
•
Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, mutilate or incinerate the battery.
•
Recharge batteries only as described in this manual and only in ventilated areas.
