Important information on your computer's
cooling fan
Your computer may have a CPU cooling fan that cools the
CPU by drawing outside air into the computer.
NOTE
Setting up your computer
Your computer contains a rechargeable main battery that
needs to be charged before you can use it.
Always make sure your computer and AC adaptor have
adequate ventilation and are protected from
overheating when the power is turned on or when an
AC adaptor is connected to a power outlet (even if your
computer is in Sleep mode). In this condition, observe
the following:
❖
Never cover your computer or AC adaptor with
any object.
❖
Never place your computer or AC adaptor near a
heat source, such as an electric blanket or heater.
❖
Never cover or block the air vents including those
located at the underside of the computer.
❖
Always operate your computer on a hard flat
surface. Using your computer on a carpet or other
soft material can block the vents located at the
underside of the computer.
Overheating your computer or AC adaptor could cause
system failure, computer or AC adaptor damage or a fire,
possibly resulting in serious injury.
The cooling fan location will vary depending on the
computer.
TECHNICAL NOTE: You must complete all setup steps
up to and including
adding external or internal components to your
computer. These components include, but are not limited
to, a mouse, keyboard, and printer.
