General safety guidelines

Always observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury and property
damage.

Service

Do not attempt to service any product yourself, unless instructed otherwise by the
Customer Support Center. Allow only an authorized service provider to carry out
repairs.

Heat and product ventilation

Computers, AC power adapters and various accessories generate heat during use, as
do batteries while being charged. Always follow the basic precautions below:
• Do not leave a computer, AC power adapter or accessory in contact with the body
for extended periods of use, or while the battery is charging. Computers, AC power
adapters and accessories generate heat during normal operation; contact with the
body for extended periods can cause discomfort or, potentially, a skin burn.
• Do not charge a battery or operate your computer, AC power adapter or accessories
near flammable materials or in explosive environments.
• This product includes ventilation slots, fans and heat sinks for safe and reliable
operation. These safety features may be compromised if the product is placed on a
bed, sofa, carpet or other soft surface. Never block, cover or disable these safety
features.
