CAUTION:
Do not block, push objects into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air

briefcase, while it is running. Restricting the airflow can damage the computer or
cause a fire.

which prevents the computer from overheating. The computer turns the fan on when
the computer gets hot. Fan noise is normal and does not indicate a problem with the
fan or the computer.
H A R D D R I V E — Stores software and data.
