v Avoid subjecting your computer to extreme temperatures (below 5°C/41°F

or above 35°C/95°F).

v Some appliances, such as certain portable desktop fans or air purifiers, can

produce negative ions. If a computer is close to such an appliance, and is

exposed for an extended time to air containing negative ions, it may

become electrostatically charged. Such a charge may be discharged through

your hands when you touch the keyboard or other parts of the computer,

or through connectors on I/O devices connected to it. Even though this

kind of electrostatic discharge (ESD) is the opposite of a discharge from

your body or clothing to the computer, it poses the same risk of a computer

malfunction.

Your computer is designed and manufactured to minimize any effects of

electrostatic charge. An electrostatic charge above a certain limit, however,

can increase the risk of ESD. Therefore, when using the computer close to

an appliance that can produce negative ions, give special attention to the

following:

– Avoid directly exposing your computer to the air from an appliance that

can produce negative ions.

– Keep your computer and peripherals as far as possible from such an

appliance.

– Wherever possible, ground your computer to facilitate safe electrostatic

discharge.

Note: Not all such appliances cause a significant electrostatic charge.

Be gentle with your computer

v Avoid placing any objects (including paper) between the display and the

keyboard or under the keyboard.

v Do not drop, bump, scratch, twist, hit, vibrate, push, or place heavy objects

on your computer, display, or external devices.

v Your computer display is designed to be opened and used at an angle

slightly greater than 90 degrees. Do not open the display beyond 140

degrees, as this might damage the computer.

v Do not move or carry your computer by holding or grasping the edges of

the leather cover. Doing so may cause the leather cover to tear or to come

loose from the computer.

Carry your computer properly

v Before moving your computer, be sure to remove any media, turn off

attached devices, and disconnect cords and cables.

v Be sure your computer is in sleep (standby in Windows XP and Windows

2000) or hibernation mode, or turned off, before moving it. This will

prevent damage to the hard disk drive and data loss.

v When picking up your open computer, hold it by the bottom. Do not pick

up or hold your computer by the display.
