Heat Problems

Your notebook normally gets warm during routine operation.
If the Notebook Gets Abnormally Hot
■
Always set the notebook on a flat surface, so that air can flow
freely around and underneath it.
■
Make sure the air vents on the bottom and sides of the
notebook are clear.
■
Keep in mind that games and other programs that drive CPU
usage toward 100 percent can increase the notebook
temperature.
