DANGER

Do not disassemble, incinerate, or short-circuit the rechargeable battery pack. Do not put it in trash that is disposed of in landfills. Dispose of it as required by local ordinances or regulations. In the United States, call IBM at 1-800-IBM-4333 for information on disposal.

DANGER

The lithium battery (IBM P/N 12J1695 UL-recognized component—File No. MH12210) can be replaced only by your dealer or an IBM service representative. It contains lithium and can explode if not properly used, handled, or disposed of. Do not: (1) throw or immerse into water, (2) heat to more than 100°C (212°F), or (3) repair or disassemble. Dispose of it as required by local ordinances or regulations.

CAUTION: The fluorescent lamp in the liquid crystal display (LCD) contains mercury. Do not put it in trash that is disposed of in landfills. Dispose of it as required by local ordinances or regulations.

The LCD is made of glass, and rough handling or dropping the computer can cause the LCD to break. If the LCD breaks and the internal fluid gets into your eyes or on your hands, immediately wash the affected areas with water for at least 15 minutes; then get medical care if any symptoms are present after washing.

Title: C79FPMST CreationDate: 06/22/98 12:26:52

The TrackPoint consists of a stick on the keyboard and a pair of click buttons below the keyboard. Movement of the cursor on the

screen is controlled by the amount of pressure you apply to the nonslip cap on the stick in any direction parallel to the keyboard; the stick itself does corresponds to the pressure you apply to the stick. The function of the click buttons corresponds to the left and right mouse buttons on a traditional mouse, and depends on the software you are using.

If you are not familiar with using the TrackPoint, these instructions will help you get started:

Place your hands in the typing position and press gently with either index finger on the stick in the direction you want the cursor to move.

Pressing the stick away from you moves the cursor up the screen; pressing it toward you moves the cursor down the screen. You can also move the cursor side to side by pressing sideways.

The cursor might drift. This is not a defect. Do not use the TrackPoint until the cursor stops moving.
