Cooling
1. Clean any dust accumulated on the computer's cooling vents.
The cooling vents are located on the back and underside of the
computer.
When you use your computer in a dusty area, dirt and debris may
accumulate on the cooling vents at the under side of your unit. If this
occurs, the accumulated dust can cause insufficient heat dissipation which
may result in the computer shutting down during use. Carefully clean the
dust from the vents using a vacuum cleaner.
2. Cooling vents on the underside and back side of the computer.
To prevent possible overheating of the CPU, make sure the cooling fan's
air intake is not blocked. The fan draws in air by creating a vacuum. If the
fan is blocked, it could cause the CPU to run at a lower performance level
or cause the computer to shut down. Loose items such as notebook and
tissue paper, plastic wrappers, or other similar materials can block the air
intake, preventing air from reaching the CPU. Do not use the computer on
surfaces with objects that can be drawn in by the cooling fan.
