Safety Instructions

Use the following safety guidelines to help protect yourself and your computer.

When Using Your Computer

CAUTION: Do not operate your portable computer for an extended
period of time with the base resting directly on your body. With extended
operation, heat can potentially build up in the base. Allowing sustained
contact with the skin could cause discomfort or, eventually, a burn.
Do not attempt to service the computer yourself. Always follow installation
instructions closely.
Do not carry a battery in your pocket, purse, or other container where metal
objects (such as car keys) could short-circuit the battery terminals. The
resulting excessive current follow can cause extremely high temperatures
and may result in damage from burns.
Be sure that noting rests on your AC adapter's power cable and that the
cable is not located where it can be tripped over or stepped on.
Place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desk top or on the floor,
when you use it to run the computer or to charge the battery. Do not cover
the AC adapter with papers or other items that will reduce cooling; also, do
not use the AC adapter while it is inside a carrying case.
Use only the AC adapter and batteries that are approved for use with this
computer. Use of another type of battery or AC adapter may risk fire or
explosion.
Before you connect the computer to a power source, ensure that the voltage
rating of the AC adapter matches that of the available power source. 115 V/
60 Hz in most of North and South America and some Far Eastern countries
such as Taiwan. 100 V/50 Hz in eastern Japan and 100 V/60 Hz in western
Japan. 230 V/50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East.
