Do not use benzene or thinner, or rubbing alcohol. Doing so may adversely affect the surface, e.g., discoloration. In addition,
do not use commercially-available cleaners and cosmetics, as they may contain components harmful to the surface.
Do not directly add or spray water or detergent. If liquid enters the inside of the computer, it may cause it to work
improperly or be damaged.

Places not to use your computer
Such areas may result in damage to the computer.
Areas with electronic equipment
These areas may interfere with your display or cause your computer to
produce strange sounds.
Areas with extremely high/low temperatures
Do not leave things near the computer that are sensitive to heat. During opera-
tion, the computer may become warm.
This computer has been designed so as to minimize shock to the LCD and hard disk drive, the
leakage of liquid (e.g., water) from the keyboard, etc., but no warranty is provided against such
trouble. Therefore, as a precision instrument, please be extremely careful in the handling.
Do not drop or hit your computer against solid objects.
Do not stand the computer on its side or allow it to tip over. When the computer receives ex-
tremely strong shock after falling, the hard disk or floppy disk drive, etc., may become inoperable.
Do not carry your computer when it is ON.
Remove all cables before transporting your computer.
We recommend preparing a fully charged battery (and optional charger, if possible).
When transporting spare batteries inside a package, briefcase, etc., it is recommended
that the batteries be stored in a plastic bag.
Do not place the computer upright. When the computer receives extremely strong shock
after falling, the hard disk or floppy disk drive, etc., may become inoperable.
Do not carry the computer while the display is open, or carry it by gripping the display.
Do not put anything (e.g., a piece of paper) between the display and keyboard.
Always carry your computer with you. Never check it in with luggage. For use of the computer
inside an aircraft, we recommend asking the airlines regarding their policy on this issue.
<When using the SuperDisk drive>
It is a good idea to make backup copies on disks and carry them with you.
Do not leave a disk in the drive while transporting your computer.
Display
Avoid using water when cleaning the panel. Ingredients included in water may leave
residue and reduce readability of the screen.
<When cleaning dust/dirt>
Avoid rubbing off dust/dirt with cloth since it may leave scratch on the screen.
Sweep dust/dirt with fine brush, then wipe it with "dry" soft cloth used for cleaning glasses.
<When cleaning oily surface>
Apply camera lens cleaner on a soft gauze and clean it with gentle force. Then, wipe
with dry soft cloth used for cleaning glasses.
Areas excluding the display
Wipe these areas with a soft cloth, after applying water or detergent diluted with water
to the soft cloth and firmly wringing out excess water.
