Do not leave the LCD screen facing the sun. This could damage the LCD screen. Be sure to block direct
sunlight when using your VAIO computer near a window.
Do not exert pressure on the LCD screen or its edges. The LCD screen may be sensitive to pressure or
added stress, and exerting pressure may damage the screen or cause it to malfunction.
Using your VAIO computer in low temperature conditions may produce a residual image on the LCD screen.
This does not indicate a malfunction. When the computer returns to normal temperature, the screen returns
to normal.
A residual image may appear on the LCD screen if the same image is displayed for an extended period of
time. The residual image disappears after a while. You can use a screen saver to prevent residual images.
