Safety Precautions
The following safety precautions will increase the life of the Disney Netpal. Follow all precautions and instructions. Except as described in this manual, refer all servicing to qualified personnel.
Disconnect the AC power before cleaning. Wipe the Disney Netpal 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.

DO NOT press or touch the display panel. Do not place together with small items that may scratch or enter the Disney Netpal.
DO NOT leave the Disney Netpal on your lap or any part of the body to prevent discomfort or injury from heat exposure.
When replacing or upgrading the battery, hard drive, and memory, always visit an authorized service center or retailer for this Disney Netpal.

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.

Disney Netpal
vii
SAFE TEMP: This Disney Netpal 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 Disney Netpal and be sure that your power adapter complies with the rating.
DO NOT carry or cover a Disney Netpal that is powered ON with any materials that will reduce air circulation such as a carrying bag.
DO NOT use damaged power cords, accessories, or other peripherals.
DO NOT throw the Disney Netpal 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.
CAUTION! ELECTRICALLY OPERATED PRODUCT. THIS IS NOT A TOY. TO AVOID RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE, IT SHOULD NOT BE PLAYED WITHOUT ADULT SUPERVISION OR PLACED WHERE SMALL CHILDREN CAN REACH.
DO NOT use strong solvents such as thinners, benzene, or other chemicals on or near the surface.
Incorrect installation of battery may cause explosion and damage the Disney Netpal.
Transportation Precautions
To prepare the Disney Netpal for transport, you should close the display panel to protect the keyboard and display panel.
For the model that comes with a hard disk drive, you should turn it OFF and disconnect all external peripherals to prevent damage to the connectors when you prepare for transport. The hard disk drive’s head retracts when the power is turned OFF to prevent scratching of the hard disk surface during transport. Never transport it while the power is still ON.
The Disney Netpal’s surface is easily dulled if not properly cared for. Be careful not to rub or scrape surfaces when transporting your Disney Netpal. You can put your Disney Netpal 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 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 Disney Netpal 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 Disney Netpal on the airplane. Most airlines have restrictions for using electronic devices. Most airlines allow electronic use only between and not during takeoffs and landings.
viii
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 Disney Netpal and diskettes through airport X-ray machines. However, it is recommended that you do not send your Disney Netpal or diskettes through airport magnetic detectors or expose them to magnetic wands.
