Pay strict attention to the following points to avoid damage to the computer, peripheral devices,
cables, etc. Also, in addition to following this manual and the Reference Manual, carefully read
the instruction manuals for the peripheral devices being used.
Use only peripheral devices that conform to the computer's specifications.
Connect the devices properly, paying close attention to the condition and position of the
connectors.
If a connection cannot be made easily, do not apply undue force; check once more to confirm
the condition and position of the connector (alignment of pins, etc.).
If the connector has holding screws, fasten the screws firmly.
Do not carry the computer with cables attached, and do not pull on the cables forcefully.
When using the hard disk backup function, divide the hard disk into partitions when a backup
area is created. ( page 43) If you divide the hard disk into partitions before creating the
backup area, the backup area cannot be created.
When disposing of or transferring ownership of this device, erase all data on the hard disk in order
to prevent the theft of hard disk data. Even if you delete data or initialize the hard disk through
normal Windows commands, data can still be read using special software. In order to erase all data,
either have the data erased by a specialist (at a charge) or use the hard disk data erase utility
(included) ( page 47). (Note that this hard disk data erase utility does not guarantee that data
will be completely erased.)
Also, note that if you transfer ownership of this device without deleting commercial software
that you have installed to the hard disk, you may be in violation of the licensing agreement for
that software.
To prevent theft of data or unauthorized access to the hard disk
via a wireless LAN
If you plan to use wireless LAN functions, we recommend that you do so only after making
the appropriate security settings, such as for data encryption.
