Chapter 6. Safety, Use, and Care Information

Be gentle with your computer
Avoid placing any objects (including paper) between the display and the
keyboard or under the keyboard.
Do not drop, bump, scratch, twist, hit, vibrate, push, or place heavy
objects on your computer, display, or external devices.
Avoid turning the display beyond 127°.
Carry your computer properly
Before moving your computer, be sure to remove any media, turn off
attached devices, and disconnect cords and cables.
Be sure your computer is in sleep or hibernation mode, or turned off,
before moving it. This will prevent damage to the hard disk drive and
data loss.
When picking up your open computer, hold it by the bottom. Do not
pick up or hold your computer by the display.
Use a quality carrying case that provides adequate cushion and
protection. Do not pack your computer in a tightly packed suitcase or
bag.
For outdoor use
Backup your critical data before you take your computer outdoors.
Ensure that the battery is full.
Be sure to turn off the power and close the LCD well.
Do not leave anything between the closed LCD and the keyboard.
