inside your computer. In this case, allow at least an hour before turning on your computer. If any
problem occurs, unplug your computer, and contact your Sony Service Center.
On Upgrading the System

The procedures described in the Upgrading and Maintaining Your VAIO Digital Studio Computer
chapter of the online manual assume familiarity with the general terminology associated with
personal computers and with the safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using and
modifying electronic equipment.

Disconnect the system from its power source and from any telecommunications links, networks,
or modems before you open the system or do any of the procedures described in the
Upgrading
and Maintaining Your VAIO Digital Studio Computer chapter of the online manual. Failure to do so
may result in personal injury or equipment damage.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage disk drives, add-in cards, and other components. Do the
procedures described in the
Upgrading and Maintaining Your VAIO Digital Studio Computer chapter
of the online manual only at an ESD workstation. If such a station is not available, do not work in a
carpeted area, and do not handle materials that produce or hold static electricity (cellophane
wrappers, for example). Ground yourself by maintaining contact with an unpainted metal portion
of the chassis while performing the procedure.

When removing a slot cover, be careful not to damage components on the system board or
add-in cards. You may need to temporarily remove add-in cards that are next to the slot cover
you want to remove.
On Using the Hard Disk Drive

Do not place the computer in a location that is subject to vibration or shock.

Do not move the computer during operation.

Do not subject the computer to sudden changes in temperature.

Do not turn off the power while the computer is accessing the hard disk drive.
On Handling Diskettes

Do not open the shutter manually and touch the surface of the diskette.

Keep diskettes away from magnets.

Keep diskettes away from direct sunlight and other heat sources.
On Handling CD-ROMs and DVD-ROMs

Do not touch the surface of the disc.

Do not drop or bend the disc.
On Cleaning CD-ROMs and DVD-ROMs

Fingerprints and dust on the surface of a disc may cause read errors. Proper care of the disc is
essential to maintain its reliability. Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially
available cleaners or anti-static spray, as they may cause damage to the disc.

For normal cleaning, hold the disc by its edge and use a soft cloth to wipe the surface from the
center out.

If the disc is badly soiled, moisten a soft cloth with water, wring it out well, and use it to wipe the
surface of the disc from the center out. Wipe off any remaining moisture with a dry soft cloth.
