Taking Care of the Computer

Location Guidelines

For optimal performance, use the computer where the recommended

temperature is between 0°C (32°F) and 55°C (131°F) – actual operating
temperature depending on product specifications.
Avoid placing the computer in a location subject to high humidity,

extreme temperatures, mechanical vibration, direct sunlight, or heavy
dust. Using the computer in extreme environments for long periods can
result in product deterioration and a shortened product life.
Operating in an environment with metallic dust is not allowed.

Place the computer on a flat and steady surface. Do not stand the

computer on its side or store it in an upside-down position. A strong
impact by dropping or hitting may damage the computer.
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.
As the computer can become very hot during operation, keep it away

from objects that are vulnerable to heat.
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.
Avoid moving the computer abruptly from a cold to a warm place. A

temperature difference of more than 10°C (18°F) may cause
condensation inside the unit, which may damage the storage media.
