relating to products, service, this Guarantee or otherwise, including - economic or
intangible losses - the price paid for the product - loss of profits, revenue, data,
enjoyment or use of the product or any associated products - indirect, incidental or
consequential loss or damage. This applies whether that loss or damage relates to:

s impaired or non-operation of the product or associated products through defects

or unavailability while with Sony or an ASN member, which caused downtime, loss
of user time or business interruption

VAIO hardware repair services

If you want more information on how this service is provided, go to the VAIO Support
web site (http://www.sony-europe.com/support). While the majority of issues are
resolved via the Internet or over the phone, sometimes resolving the problem might
require intervention or repair.

We would like to draw your attention to the following important remarks before we
pick up your VAIO:

s Since you are responsible for backing up your data, it is essential that you back up

all your files from your hard disk as Sony cannot guarantee the integrity of
programs or data on your computer during the repair process.

s Do not include any accessories in the shipment of the main unit unless advised

otherwise.

s A flat fee will be charged for out-of-warranty repairs if you choose not to go ahead

with the repair.

s An address, telephone number and contact person reachable during office hours

are compulsory to allow our delivery courier and back-office team to operate
successfully.

Priručnik za sigurnost/propise

Podaci o VAIO računalu

Informacije o sigurnosti

Upozorenje: Ovaj uređaj mora biti uzemljen. (Osim proizvoda s utikačem
bez uzemljenja.)

Ako želite držati računalo, pričekajte dok se ne ohladi. Površina oko
otvora za prozračivanje može biti jako vruća.

Preporučuje se ne upotrebljavati računalo izravno u krilu. Temperatura
donje strane računala može se podići tijekom uobičajenog rada te
nakon nekog vremena može izazvati neugodu ili opekline.

Ne postavljajte strujni prilagodnik tako da je u dodiru s kožom. Strujni
prilagodnik odmaknite od tijela ako postane topao i uzrokuje neugodu.

VAIO računala dizajnirana su za rad samo s originalnim baterijama
tvrtke Sony. Stoga, a kako bismo jamčili sigurnu uporabu VAIO računala,
upotrebljavajte samo originalne punjive baterije tvrtke Sony.

Preporučuje se uporaba originalnog strujnog prilagodnika tvrtke Sony
koji je isporučen uz proizvod.

Taj strujni prilagodnik namijenjen je za uporabu samo s IT proizvodima.
Ne upotrebljavajte ga u druge svrhe. Ako kabel strujnog prilagodnika
koji je isporučen s računalom ima utičnicu s uzemljenjem, provjerite je li
spoj s električnom mrežom također uzemljen.

Ovaj strujni prilagodnik namijenjen je samo upotrebi u zatvorenom
prostoru.

HR

s Uz neke se modele isporučuje više kabela za napajanje predviđenih za korištenje

u određenim zemljama. Upotrebljavajte kabel za napajanje predviđen za utičnice
u vašoj zemlji.

s Isključivanje računala gumbom (uklj./isklj.) ne odspaja u potpunosti računalo iz

električne mreže. Želite li ga potpuno odspojiti iz električne mreže, izvucite strujni
prilagodnik ili kabel za napajanje iz električne utičnice. Utičnica se mora nalaziti u
blizini opreme i mora biti lako dostupna.

s Otvaranje ili rastavljanje glavne jedinice ili bilo kojeg pribora, iz bilo kojeg razloga,

može uzrokovati oštećenja koja nisu pokrivena jamstvom.

s Kako biste izbjegli strujni udar, nemojte otvarati kućište. Prepustite servisiranje

stručnjacima.

s Kako biste spriječili opasnost od požara ili električnog udara, ne izlažite računalo ili

njegov pribor kiši ili vlazi.

27

s Kako biste spriječili oštećenje i opasnost od zapaljenja računala tijekom prijevoza,

najprije pričvrstite sve isporučene poklopce utičnica i zaštitne navlake utora na
odgovarajuće mjesto i pričvrstite bateriju u odjeljku za bateriju, ako je odvojiva.

s Neka baterija bude ugrađena dok se računalo koristi.
s Nemojte izazivati kratki spoj na metalnim kontaktima baterije ili ih zaliti tekućinom,

primjerice, vodom, kavom ili sokom.

s Izbjegavajte mjesta izravno izložena sunčevu svjetlu ili grijačim tijelima. Unutarnje

pregrijavanje može uzrokovati požar ili oštećenje jedinice.

s Ne blokirajte otvore za prozračivanje i dotok zraka dok je računalo uključeno.
s Blokiranje otvora za prozračivanje može prekinuti prozračivanje što može dovesti

do unutarnjeg pregrijavanja koje može uzrokovati deformiranje računala,
neispravan rad ili požar.

s Pročitajte sljedeće mjere predostrožnosti i osigurajte prikladno prozračivanje te

ispravan i pouzdan rad uređaja.
s Računalo nemojte upotrebljavati na površinama pokrivenim tekstilnim

materijalima kao što su sagovi, jastuci ili pokrivači, blizu zavjesa ili na
prašnjavim površinama koje mogu blokirati otvore za prozračivanje. Računalo
uvijek upotrebljavajte na ravnim površinama.

s Ne upotrebljavajte računalo i/ili strujni prilagodnik dok su prekriveni ili

umotani u tekstilne materijale. Osigurajte da strujni prilagodnik radi u čistoj
okolini.

s Prije stavljanja računala u torbu provjerite je li isključeno ili u stanju mirovanja

te je li žaruljica pokazivača napajanja ugašena.

s Ovaj je uređaj također namijenjen korisnicima u Norveškoj koji upotrebljavaju IT

sustave napajanja s faznim naponom od 230V.

s Zvučne smetnje i izobličenje slike mogu se javiti ako se oprema postavi u blizini

opreme koja emitira elektromagnetsko zračenje.

s Zračenja s ovog induktivnog uređaja mogu prouzročiti smetnje na prijemnicima

ostalih radio usluga u blizini (za modele s NFC).

s Zaslon koaksijalnog kabla namijenjen je spoju na masu u instalacijama zgrada (za

modele s TV tunerom).

s Ako putujete u ili unutar SAD-a, imajte na umu da je Ministarstvo prometa SAD-a

(DOT) nedavno izdalo nove propise koji se odnose na putnike koji putuju s litij-metal
i litij-ionskim baterijama.
Detaljne informacije potražite na
http://safetravel.dot.gov/whats_new_batteries.html.

s Računalo ne čistite proizvodima u raspršivaču (čistači prašine, raspršivači, itd.) koji

sadrže zapaljivi plin. Na taj bi se način unutrašnjost računala mogla ispuniti plinom i
ako se na motorima, kontaktima prekidača ili drugim unutrašnjim dijelovima
računala pojavi iskra to bi moglo zapaliti plin koji bi mogao prouzročiti eksploziju
ili požar.

28

Provjerite jesu li na snazi ograničenja uporabe bežične veze i poštujte ih.
Ako je uporaba bežične veze zabranjena u zrakoplovu, prije ukrcaja isključite sva
bežična povezivanja.
Na modelima opremljenima baterijom, odaberite ukrasnu oznaku Postavke i ikonu
mreže i zatim uključite Način rada u zrakoplovu. Na modelu koji nije opremljen
baterijom, odaberite Mreža i internet i Centar za mreže i zajedničko korištenje na
Upravljačka ploča, odaberite Promjena postavki prilagodnika u lijevom oknu, a
zatim onemogućite sve bežične mreže.
Ako morate hitno onemogućiti bežičnu funkciju, isključite računalo.
Radiovalovi mogu uzrokovati neispravan rad zrakoplovne opreme što može dovesti
do nesreće.

Na modelu opremljenom baterijom, kontrolno svjetlo WIRELESS na računalu je
uključeno kada je onemogućen Način rada u zrakoplovu. Čak i kada onemogućite
sve bežične veze s onemogućenim Način rada u zrakoplovu, kontrolno svjetlo
WIRELESS ostaje uključen. Na modelu koji nije opremljen baterijom, kontrolno
svjetlo WIRELESS na računalu uključen je kada vaše računalo može slati bežične
signale. Čak i kada onemogućite sve bežične veze, kontrolno svjetlo WIRELESS
može ostati uključeno. Kako biste provjerili jesu li sva povezivanja s mrežom
onemogućena, otvorite Upravljačka ploča, odaberite Mreža i internet i Centar za
mreže i zajedničko korištenje i zatim odaberite Promjena postavki prilagodnika
u lijevom oknu.

O gledanju 3D slika

s Za gledanje 3D slika pratite upute iz priručnika koji je isporučen s 3D zaslonom.
s Neke osobe mogu tijekom gledanja 3D videozapisa i slika ili igranja stereoskopskih

3D igara osjetiti neugodu (kao što je naprezanje očiju, umor ili mučnina). Sony
svim gledateljima preporučuje redovito odmaranje tijekom gledanja 3D videozapisa
i slika ili igranja stereoskopskih 3D igara. Trajanje i učestalost potrebnih odmora
razlikuje se od osobe do osobe. Sami odlučite koliko vam je odmora potrebno.
Ako osjetite neugodu, prekinite gledanje 3D videozapisa i slika ili igranje
stereoskopskih 3D igara dok neugoda ne prođe. Ako mislite da je potrebno,
posavjetujte se s liječnikom.
Pročitajte i priručnik za uporabu svih ostalih uređaja ili softvera koje upotrebljavate
s ovim računalom.
Vid male djece (osobito one mlađe od šest godina) još je uvijek u razvoju.
Posavjetujte se s liječnikom (npr. pedijatrom ili okulistom) prije nego maloj djeci
dopustite gledanje 3D videozapisa i slika ili igranje stereoskopskih 3D igara.
Odrasli trebaju nadgledati malu djecu kako bi bili sigurni da slijede gore navedene
preporuke.
