■
The bottom of your notebook can become warm with use.
■
Do not apply heavy pressure to your notebook or subject it to strong
impact. Excessive pressure or impact can cause damage to notebook
components or otherwise cause malfunctions.
■
Some PC Cards can become hot with prolonged use. Overheating of a
PC Card can result in errors or instability in the card’s operation. Be careful
when you remove a PC Card that has been used for extended periods.
Using the battery
■
Do not carry a battery in your pocket, purse, or other container where
metal objects (such as car keys) could short-circuit the battery terminals.
The resulting excessive current flow can cause extremely high temperatures
and may result in heat damage.
■
Protect your notebook, battery, and hard drive from environmental
hazards such as dirt, dust, food, liquids, temperature extremes, and
overexposure to sunlight.
■
Replace only with a Gateway M505 battery to avoid risk of fire or
explosion. For more information, see
“Changing batteries” on page 147
.
■
Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Do
not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode. For more information,
see
“Changing batteries” on page 147
Using the AC adapter
■
Place the adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desktop or on the floor,
when you use it to run your notebook or to charge the battery. Do not
cover the adapter with papers or other items that will reduce cooling, and
do not use the adapter while it is inside a carrying case.
■
Make sure that nothing rests on your adapter's power cable and that the
cable is not located where it can be tripped over or stepped on.
■
Use only the adapter and power cord approved for use with this notebook.
Use of another type of adapter may create a risk of fire or explosion.
■
If you use an extension cable with your adapter, ensure that the total
ampere rating of the products plugged in to the extension cable does not
exceed the ampere rating of the extension cable.
