!
purchased your notebook. Make sure that the power cable is approved for use in the

100 mm clear of the notebook and its power adapter.

Selecting a location

Select a suitable location for the notebook before setting it up. Consider the following points when
looking for a location.
•
We recommend that you place your notebook on a surface with good anti-slip qualities. In view
of the multitude of different finishes and varnishes used on furniture, it is possible that the
rubber feet will mark the surface they stand on.
•
Do not expose the notebook to extreme environmental conditions. Protect it from dust, humidity
and heat.
•
Keep other objects 100 mm away from the notebook and its power adapter to ensure adequate
ventilation. The space between the notebook's feet must be clear. Do not place it on a soft
surface (e.g., a carpet or soft furnishings). Do not cover the ventilation slots in the notebook or
the power adapter.
•
The power adapter must be at least 200 mm away from the notebook. It must be free-standing
and must not be covered. Do not place the power adapter on heat-sensitive material.
•
For infrared data transfer you must align the notebook's infrared interface with that of the
partner device (e.g. PC). The devices must not be more than one metre apart.
