Using the Cable Lock
You can use a Kensington-type cable lock to protect your computer against theft. The cable lock is available in most
computer stores.
To use the lock, loop the lock cable around a stationary object such as a table. Insert the lock to the Kensington lock hole
and turn the key to secure the lock. Store the key in a safe place.
Using an Anti-Virus Strategy
New viruses are always being developed nowadays and they are attacking computers even more easily with emails so
commonly used worldwide. You can install a virus-detecting program to monitor potential viruses that could damage
your files.
Taking Care of the Computer
Location Guidelines
* Use the computer where the temperature is between 10
o
C (50
o
F) and 35
o
C (95
o
F).
* Avoid placing the computer in a location subject to high humidity, extreme temperatures, mechanical vibration, direct
sunlight, or heavy dust.
* Do not cover or block any ventilation openings on the computer. For example, do not place the computer on a bed,
sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Otherwise, overheating may occur that results in damage to the computer.
* Keep the computer at least 13 cm (5 inches) away from electrical appliances that can generate a strong magnetic field
such as a TV, refrigerator, motor, or a large audio speaker.
o
* Do not move the computer abruptly from a cold to a warm place. A temperature difference of more than 10
C (18
o
F) will cause condensation inside the unit, which may damage the storage media.
* Do not place the computer on an unsteady surface.
General Guidelines
* Do not place heavy objects on top of the computer when it is closed as this may damage the display.
* The screen surface is easily scratched. Do not use paper towels to clean the display. Avoid touching it with your fingers,
pen, or pencil.
* To maximize the life of the backlight in the display, allow the backlight to automatically turn off as a result of power
management. Avoid using a screen saver or other software that prevents the power management from working.
