v
Use a quality carrying case that provides adequate cushion and protection.
Do not pack your computer in a tightly packed suitcase or bag.
Handle storage media and drives properly
v
If your computer comes with a diskette drive, avoid inserting diskettes at
an angle and attaching multiple or loose diskette labels, as these can lodge
in the drive.
v
If your computer comes with a CD or DVD drive, do not touch the surface
of a CD or the lens on the CD or DVD tray.
v
Wait until you hear the CD or DVD click into the center pivot of the CD or
DVD drive before closing the CD or DVD tray
v
When installing your hard disk, diskette, CD, or DVD drive, follow the
instructions shipped with your hardware, and apply pressure only where
needed on the device. See Access ThinkPad, your on-board help system, for
information on replacing your hard disk drive (open Access ThinkPad by
pressing the ThinkPad button).
Take care in setting passwords
v
Remember your passwords. If you forget a supervisor or hard disk
password, IBM will not reset it, and you may have to replace your system
board or hard disk drive.
v
If you are an administrator, remember that setting a supervisor password
can prevent unauthorized initialization.
Other important tips
v
Your computer modem may use only an analog telephone network, or
public-switched telephone network (PSTN). Do not connect the modem to a
PBX (private branch exchange) or any other digital telephone extension line
because this could damage your modem. Analog phone lines are often used
in homes, while digital phone lines are often used in hotels or office
buildings. If you are not sure which kind of phone line you are using,
contact your telephone company.
v
Your computer might have both an Ethernet connector and a modem
connector. If so, be sure to connect your communication cable to the correct
one, so your connector is not damaged. See Access ThinkPad, your
on-board help system, for information on the location of these connectors
(press the ThinkPad button to open Access ThinkPad).
v
Register your ThinkPad products with IBM (refer to the Web page:
www.pc.ibm.com/register
). This can help authorities return your computer
to you if it is lost or stolen. Registering your computer also enables IBM to
notify you about possible technical information and upgrades.
v
Only an authorized IBM ThinkPad repair technician should disassemble
and repair your computer.
