Notes for This Manual

A few notes and warnings are used throughout this guide, allowing you to complete certain tasks safely and effectively. These notes have different degrees of importance as follows:
WARNING! Important information that must be followed for safe operation.
IMPORTANT! Vital information that must be followed to prevent damage to data, components, or persons.
TIP: Tips for completing tasks.
NOTE: Information for special situations.

Safety Precautions

The following safety precautions will increase the life of the Eee PC. Follow all precautions and instructions. Except as described in this manual, refer all servicing to qualified personnel. Do not use damaged power cords, accessories, or other peripherals. Do not use strong solvents such as thinners, benzene, or other chemicals on or near the surface.
Disconnect the AC power and remove the battery pack(s) before cleaning. Wipe the Eee PC using a clean cellulose sponge or chamois cloth dampened with a solution of nonabrasive detergent and a few drops of warm water and remove any extra moisture with a dry cloth.
Battery safety warning: DO NOT throw the battery in fire. DO NOT short circuit the contacts. DO NOT disassemble the battery.
DO NOT leave the Eee PC on your lap or any part of the body to prevent discomfort or injury from heat exposure.
DO NOT expose to dirty or dusty environments. DO NOT operate during a gas leak.
DO NOT expose to strong magnetic or electrical fields.
DO NOT expose to or use near liquids, rain, or moisture. DO NOT use the modem during electrical storms.
DO NOT press or touch the display panel. Do not place together with small items that may scratch or enter the Eee PC.
DO NOT place on uneven or unstable work surfaces. Seek servicing if the casing has been damaged.
DO NOT place or drop objects on top and do not shove any foreign objects into the Eee PC.
SAFE TEMP: This Eee PC
should only be used
in environments with
ambient temperatures
between 5°C (41°F) and
35°C (95°F)
INPUT RATING: Refer to the rating label on the bottom of the Eee PC and be sure that your power adapter complies with the rating.
DO NOT carry or cover a
Eee PC that is powered
ON with any materials that
will reduce air circulation
such as a carrying bag.
Incorrect installation of battery may cause explosion and damage the Eee PC.
DO NOT throw the Eee PC in municipal waste. This product has
been designed to enable proper reuse of parts and recycling. The
symbol of the crossed out wheeled bin indicates that the product
(electrical, electronic equipment and mercury-containing button
cell battery) should not be placed in municipal waste. Check local
regulations for disposal of electronic products.
DO NOT throw the battery in municipal waste. The symbol of the
crossed out wheeled bin indicates that the battery should not be
placed in municipal waste.
Transportation Precautions
To prepare your Eee PC for transport, you should turn it OFF and
disconnect all external peripherals to prevent damage to the connectors. The hard disk drive’s head retracts when the power is turned OFF to prevent scratching of the hard disk surface during transport. Therefore, you should not transport your Eee PC while the power is still ON. Close the display panel to protect the keyboard and display
panel.
The Eee PC’s surface is easily dulled if not properly cared for. Be careful not to rub or scrape surfaces when transporting your Eee PC. You can put your Eee PC in a carrying case for protection from dirt, water, shock, and scratches.
Charging Your Batteries
If you intend to use battery power, be sure to fully charge your battery pack and any optional battery packs before going on long trips. Remember that the power adapter charges the battery pack as long as it is plugged into the computer and an AC power source. Be aware that it takes much longer to charge the battery pack when the Eee PC is in use.
Remember to fully charge the battery (8 hours or more) before first use and whenever it is depleted to prolong battery life. The battery reaches its maximmum capacity after a few full charging and discharging cycles.
Airplane Precautions
Contact your airline if you want to use the Eee PC on the airplane. Most airlines have restrictions for using electronic devices. Most airlines allow electronic use only between and not during takeoffs and landings.
There are three main types of airport security devices: X-ray machines (used on items placed on conveyor belts), magnetic detectors (used on people walking through security checks), and magnetic wands (hand-held devices used on people or individual items). You can send your Eee PC and diskettes through airport X-ray machines. However, it is recommended that you do not send your Eee PC or diskettes through airport magnetic detectors or expose them to magnetic wands.
