Care and Maintenance
If you use your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook carefully, you
will increase its life and reliability. This section provides
some tips for looking after the notebook and its devices.
Caring for your LifeBook notebook
■
Your LifeBook notebook is a durable but sensitive
electronic device. Treat it with respect and care.
■
Make a habit of transporting it in a suitable carrying
case. To protect your notebook from damage and to
optimize system performance, be sure to
keep all air
all vents unobstructed , clean, and clear of debris . This
may require periodic cleaning, depending upon the
environment in which the system is used.
■
Do not operate the notebook in areas where the air
vents can be obstructed, such as in tight enclosures or
on soft surfaces like a bed or cushion.
■
Do not attempt to service the computer yourself.
Always follow installation instructions closely.
■
Keep it away from food and beverages.
■
If you accidentally spill liquid on your LifeBook note-
book:
1. Turn it off.
2. Position it so that the liquid can run out.
3. Let it dry out for 24 hours, or longer if needed.
4. If your notebook will not boot after it has dried
out, call your support representative.
■
Do not use your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook in a wet
environment (near a bathtub, swimming pool).
■
Always use the AC adapter and batteries that are
approved for your notebook.
■
Avoid exposure to sand, dust and other environmental
hazards.
■
Do not expose your notebook to direct sunlight for long
periods of time as temperatures above 140° F (60° C)
may damage your notebook.
■
Keep the covers closed on the connectors and slots when
they are not in use.
■
Do not put heavy or sharp objects on the computer.
■
If you are carrying your LifeBook notebook in a brief-
case, or any other carrying case, make sure that there are
no objects in the case pressing on the lid.
■
Never position your notebook such that the optical
drive is supporting the weight of the notebook.
■
Do not drop your notebook.
■
Do not touch the screen with any sharp objects.
Cleaning your LifeBook notebook
■
Always disconnect the power plug. (Pull the plug, not
the cord.)
■
Clean your LifeBook notebook with a damp, lint-free
cloth. Do not use abrasives or solvents.
■
Use a soft cloth to remove dust from the screen. Never
use glass cleaners.
Storing your LifeBook notebook
■
If storing your notebook for a month or longer, turn
your LifeBook notebook off, fully charge the battery(s),
then remove and store all Lithium ion batteries.
■
Store your notebook and batteries separately. If you
store your LifeBook with a battery installed, the battery
will discharge, and battery life will be reduced. In addi-
tion, a faulty battery might damage your LifeBook.

Traveling with your LifeBook notebook
■
Do not transport your notebook while it is turned on.

It is recommended that you carry your notebook with
you while traveling, rather than checking it in as bag-
gage.
■
Always bring your System Recovery CD that came with
your notebook when you travel. If you experience sys-
tem software problems while traveling, you may need it
to correct any problems.
■
Never put your notebook through a metal detector.
Have your notebook hand-inspected by security per-
sonnel. 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. Secu-
rity officials may require you to turn your notebook
On. Make sure you have a charged battery on hand.
■
When traveling with the hard drive removed, wrap the
drive in a non-conducting materials (cloth or paper). If
you have the drive checked by hand, be ready to install
the drive if needed. Never put your hard drive through a
metal detector. Have your hard drive hand-inspected by
Electrical equipment may be hazardous if
