After transporting the Notebook, wait until the device has reached room tem-
perature before switching it on. Large changes in temperature or fluctuations in
humidity can cause moisture build-up within the Notebook due to condensa-
tion. This can cause an electrical short circuit.

Keep the original packaging in the event the device needs to be sent in the post.

PLEASE NOTE!
Avoid dazzle, reflections and strong bright-dark contrast in order to protect
your eyes.
The Notebook should never be placed next to a window because this is the bright-
est part of the room in daylight. This brightness can make it more difficult for the
eyes to adjust to the darker display. The Notebook should always be positioned so
that the direction of vision is parallel to the window front.
Setting up the Notebook with your back to the window is incorrect as reflections
from the bright window on the screen will then be unavoidable. A position looking
onto the window is also incorrect as the contrast between the dark screen and the
bright daylight can cause problems for the eyes to adjust and result in problems.
The parallel line of vision should also be maintained in relation to artificial lighting
equipment.
In other words, the same criteria and principles apply where the workspace is illu-
minated with artificial light. Where space restrictions make it impossible to set up
the screen as described, then correct positioning (rotating, tilting) of the Notebook/
screen can prevent dazzling, reflections and excessive bright-dark contrast, etc. In
many cases, an improvement can also be achieved by using slats or vertical blinds
on the windows, partition walls or by changing the artificial lighting equipment.
