Safety Instructions
Use the following safety guidelines to help protect yourself and your Booktop.
When Using Your M1022 Booktop 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 build up in the base. Allowing sustained contact with
the skin can cause discomfort or a burn.
• Do not attempt to service the Booktop 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 flow can generate extremely high temperature and
may cause burns to your skin.
• Be sure that nothing rests on your AC adapter's power cable and that the cable is not located where it can be tripped
over or stepped on.
• While you are using the computer or charging the battery, place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, like on a
desktop or on the floor. Do not cover the AC adapter with papers or other items that may prevent ventilation. Also, do
not use the AC adapter while it is inside a carrying case.
• Do not insert objects into the air vent of your Booktop computer. Doing so can cause short-circuiting and may result
in fire or electrical shock.
• Use only the AC adapter and batteries that are supplied by your Booktop manufacturer. Using other types of battery
or AC adapter may heighten the risk of fire or explosion.
• Incorrectly placed batteries may result in an explosion.
• Replace only with the same or compatible battery recommended by the manufacturer.
• Please discard used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Before you connect your Booktop 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 South Korea.
- 100 V/50 Hz in eastern Japan and 100 V/60Hz in western Japan.
- 230 V/50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East.
• If you use an extension cord with your AC adapter, ensure that the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the
extension cord does not exceed its total cap aci ty.
• When removing battery from your Booktop, first turn off the system, disconnect the AC adapter from the electrical
outlet, and then remove the battery.
• To avoid risk of an electrical shock, do not connect or disconnect any cables, or perform maintenance or
reconfiguration of this product during a thunderstorm.
• Do not throw batteries into fire, doing so may cause explosion. Check with local authorities first for battery disposal
instructions.
• When setting up your Booktop for work, place it on a level surface.5
• When traveling, do not check your Booktop as baggage. You can put your Booktop through an X-ray security
machine, but never put your Booktop through a metal detector. If you have your Booktop checked by hand, be sure
to have a charged battery ready in case you are asked to turn on your Booktop.
• When traveling with the hard drive removed from your Booktop, wrap the drive in an insulated material, such as cloth
or paper. If you have the drive checked by hand, you may be asked to install the drive into your Booktop. Your can
have the hard drive checked through an X-ray machine, but never put the drive through a metal detector.
• When traveling, do not place your Booktop in the overhead storage compartment where it could shift around. Do not
drop your Booktop or subject it to other mechanical shocks.
• Protect your Booktop, battery, and hard drive from environmental hazards such as dirt, dust, food, liquids, extreme
temperature, and direct exposure to sunlight.
• When you move your Booktop in environments where there is a substantial difference of temperature or humidity
level, condensation may form on or within your Booktop. To avoid damaging your Booktop, please allow sufficient
time for the moisture to evaporate before continue using.
NOTICE: When taking your Booktop from a colder to a warmer environment or vice versa, allow your Booktop enough time to
adapt to the new environment before turning on power.
• When unplugging the power cord, please make sure that you pull on its connector or on its strain relief loop, and not
on the power cord itself. As you pull out the connector, please ensure that it is pulled out evenly in order not to bend
its connecting pins. Also, before you connect the power cord, make sure that both connectors are correctly oriented
and aligned.
• Before you clean your Booktop, turn it off first, unplug it from its power source, and remove the battery.
• Handle interior components with care. When removing a component, please hold it by the edge and not on the
connecting pins (such as the memory module).
When using your telephone equipments, safety instructions should always be followed in order to prevent fire,
electrical shock or injuries, these instructions include:
• Do not use this product near water, for example, near a bathtub, washing basins, kitchen/laundry sinks, wet
basements or swimming pools.
• Avoid using cordless phones during an electrical storm as lightening may cause electrical shocks.
• Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak within the leakage area.
