Finding Information
Important Tips
Be Careful about Where and How You Work
Do not leave the base of your computer, or any other part that becomes
hot during operation, in contact with your lap or any part of your body
for an extended period when the computer is functioning or when the
battery is charging. Your computer dissipates some heat during normal
operation. This heat is a function of the level of system activity and
battery charge level. Extended contact with your body, even through
clothing, could cause discomfort or, eventually, a skin burn.
When the AC adapter is connected to an electrical outlet and your
computer, it generates heat. Do not place the adapter in contact with any
part of your body while using it. Never use the AC adapter to warm
your body. Extended contact with your body, even through clothing,
may cause a skin burn.
Route the cables of an AC adapter, a mouse, a keyboard, a printer, or any
other electronic device, or communication lines, so that they cannot be
walked on, tripped over, pinched by your computer or other objects, or
in any way subjected to treatment that could disturb the operation of
your computer. Applying strong force to the cables may damage or
break them.
Place liquids away from your computer to avoid spills, and keep your
computer away from water (to avoid the danger of electrical shock).
Store packing materials safely out of the reach of children to prevent the
risk of suffocation from plastic bags.
Keep your computer away from magnets, activated cellular phones,
electrical appliances, or speakers (within 13 cm or 5 in).
Avoid subjecting your computer to extreme temperatures (below 5C/
41F or above 35C/95F).
Before you install any of the following devices, touch a metal table or a
grounded metal object. This action reduces any static electricity from
your body. The static electricity could damage the device.
ExpressCard
Memory Card, such as SD Card, Memory Stick, MultiMediaCard,
xD-Picture Card, and Memory Stick Pro card.
Memory module
PCI Express Card
When transferring data to or from a Flash Media Card, such as an SD
card, do not put your computer in sleep or hibernation mode before the
data transfer is complete. To do so might cause damage to your data.
Cleaning the Cover of Your Computer
Occasionally clean your computer as follows:
1. Prepare a mixture of a gentle kitchen-use detergent (one that does not
contain abrasive powder or strong chemicals such as acid or alkaline).
Use 5 parts water to 1 part detergent.
2. Absorb the diluted detergent into a sponge.
3. Squeeze excess liquid from the sponge.
4. Wipe the cover with the sponge, using a circular motion and taking care
not to let any excess liquid drip.
5. Wipe the surface to remove the detergent.
6. Rinse the sponge with clean running water.
7. Wipe the cover with the clean sponge.
8. Wipe the surface again with a dry, soft lint-free cloth.
9. Wait for the surface to dry completely and remove any cloth fibers from
the computer surface.
Cleaning Your Computer Keyboard
1. Absorb some isopropyl rubbing alcohol on a soft, dust-free cloth.
2. Wipe each keytop surface with the cloth. Wipe the keys one by one; if
you wipe several keys at a time, the cloth may hook onto an adjacent
key and possibly damage it. Make sure that no liquid drips onto or
between the keys.
3. Allow to dry.
4. To remove any crumbs and dust from beneath the keys, you can use a
camera blower with a brush or cool air from a hair drier.

Using Passwords
Using passwords helps prevent your computer from being used by others.
Once you set a password and enable it, a prompt appears on the screen each
time you power on the computer. Enter your password at the prompt. You
cannot use the computer unless you type the correct password.
Make sure that only authorized individuals access your computer.
Establishing different kinds of passwords requires that other possible users
know the proper passwords in order to access your computer or your data.
As many as three passwords might be needed for your computer: the
Supervisor password, the User Password, and the hard-disk drive (HDD)
password. When passwords are set, only the Supervisor password entitles
you full control of the computer.
