CHAPTER 12: Maintaining Your Notebook

Caring for your notebook
To extend the life of your notebook:
■
Be careful not to bump or drop your
notebook, and do not put any objects on
top of it. The case, although strong, is not
made to support extra weight.
■
When transporting your notebook, we
recommend that you put it in a carrying
case.
■
Keep your notebook away from magnetic
fields. Magnetic fields can erase data on
hard drives.
■
Never turn off your notebook when the
drive indicator is on because data on the
hard drive could be lost or corrupted.
■
Avoid subjecting your notebook to
extreme temperature changes. The case
(and LCD panel) can become brittle and
easy to break in cold temperatures and can
melt or warp in high temperatures.
Damage due to either extreme is not
covered by your warranty. As a general
rule, your notebook is safest at
temperatures that are comfortable for you.
■
Keep all liquids away from your notebook.
When spilled onto notebook components,
almost any liquid can result in expensive
repairs that are not covered under your
warranty.
■
Avoid dusty or dirty work environments.
Dust and dirt can clog the internal
mechanisms and can lead to permanent
damage to the notebook.
■
Do not block the ventilation fan slots. If
these slots are blocked, your notebook
may overheat resulting in unexpected
shutdown or permanent damage to the
notebook.
