Taking Care of Your Notebook
Use the following recommendations to maintain your notebook during everyday use and
prevent potential physical damage or data loss.
To protect your hard disk drive
Hard disk drives, as well as other internal components, are not indestructible and can be
damaged by inappropriate handling and operation.
•
Avoid bumps or jolts.
•
Do not operate the notebook while traveling over bumpy terrain.
•
Turn off the notebook or put it on standby or into hibernation before transporting it.
This turns off the hard drive. A drop of a few inches onto a rigid surface while the
hard drive is operating could destroy data or damage the drive.
•
Carry the notebook in a padded case to protect against bumps and jolts.
•
Set down the notebook gently.
To maintain your notebook
•
Provide adequate ventilation around the notebook. Always set the notebook on a flat
surface, so that air can flow freely around and underneath it.
•
Always turn off the notebook or put it into hibernation before putting it in a carrying
case or other enclosed space.
•
Do not pick up or carry the notebook by its display.
•
Observe the temperature limits and other specifications listed in “Hardware
Specifications” on page 136. Do not use the notebook outside in the rain or snow
(inclement weather). If the notebook is cold, warm it gradually to avoid condensation.
