Hardware and Software Setup
WARNING: This notebook is designed to run demanding
applications at full power. As a result of increased power
consumption, it is normal for the notebook to feel warm or
hot when used continuously. To avoid potential discomfort
or burns, do not block the air vents or use the notebook on
your lap for extended periods. The notebook complies with
the user-accessible surface temperature limits defined by
the International Standard for Safety of Information
Technology Equipment (IEC 60950).
NOTE: Because of limitations in current TFT manufacturing
technology, TFT displays may show imperfections as bright,
dim, or dark spots. HP does not guarantee that TFT displays
are free from such imperfections.
NOTE: For governmental agency and safety information, refer
on the Documentation Library CD to the Regulatory and Safety
Notices.
