Safety Instructions

Please follow the instructions in this section for the safe operation
of your notebook:
• Do not allow small children to play unattended with electri-
cal equipment. Children are incapable of judging potential
risks properly.
• Keep the packing materials, such as foil away from children.
The danger of suffocation could arise in the case of misuse.
• Do not open the case of the notebook, the battery or the
power adaptor. When the case is open there is a danger of
severe electric shock.
• CD-ROM-/CDRW-/DVD-drives are Laser Class 1 devices.
These lasers must remain in their sealed casing. DO NOT
remove the drive covers, as exposure to the lasers may be
harmful.
• Do not insert objects through the slots and openings of the
notebook. This may lead to electric shock, electrical short-
circuit or fire that will damage your notebook.
• Slots and openings in the notebook serve to ventilate it. Do
not cover up these openings, because the notebook could
overheat otherwise.
• The notebook is not intended to be operated in a heavy
industry company. Operation under extreme environ-
mental conditions can result in damage to your notebook.
• Do not operate the notebook during a thunderstorm, in
order to avoid damage through lightning strike.
• Do not cover the slots and openings of the notebook.
Never place objects on top of the notebook that would exert
any pressure on the display. There is a danger that even
slight pressure may break the TFT display.
• There is a risk of injury if the TFT display breaks. Use pro-
tective gloves to pack up the broken pieces and contact
customer service to arrange for proper disposal. It is impor-
tant to thoroughly wash your hands after handling a broken
TFT display. There is a chance that chemicals may have
been released.
