The computer is unusually warm

It is normal for the computer to feel warm to the touch while it is in use. But if the
computer feels unusually warm, it may be overheating because a vent is blocked.
If you suspect that the computer is overheating, allow the computer to cool to room
temperature. Then be sure to keep all vents free from obstructions while you are
using the computer.
WARNING: To reduce the possibility of heat-related injuries or of overheating the
Å
computer, do not place the computer directly on your lap or obstruct the computer air
vents. Use the computer only on a hard, flat surface. Do not allow another hard
surface, such as an adjoining optional printer, or a soft surface, such as pillows or
rugs or clothing, to block airflow. Also, do not allow the AC adapter to contact the skin
or a soft surface, such as pillows or rugs or clothing, during operation. The computer
and the AC adapter comply with the user-accessible surface temperature limits defined
by the International Standard for Safety of Information Technology Equipment (IEC
60950).
