Safety information
Warning: This apparatus must be earthed. (Except the products with a
2-pin type plug.)
When holding the computer, be sure to wait until it cools down. The
surface around the air exhaust vent may be extremely hot.
It is recommended that you do not use your computer directly on your
lap. The temperature of the base of the unit may rise during normal
operation and over time could result in discomfort or burns.
Do not place the AC adapter in contact with your skin. Remove the AC
adapter away from your body if it becomes warm and causes
discomfort.
VAIO computers are designed to operate only with genuine Sony
batteries. Therefore, and in order to guarantee a safe usage of your
VAIO computer, only a genuine Sony rechargeable battery pack should
be used.
It is highly recommended that you use a genuine Sony AC adapter
supplied by Sony for your product.
This AC adapter is intended for use with IT products only. Please do not
use it for any other purpose. If the power cable of the AC adapter
bundled with your computer comes with a 3-pin plug, please make sure
that the electrical connection will be properly earthed.
This AC adapter is for indoor use only.

Some models have multiple country specific power cords supplied with them.
Please use the power cord suited to the power outlet in your country.
Turning off your computer with the (power) button does not disconnect the
computer completely from mains voltage. To disconnect it completely, unplug the
AC adapter or the power cable from mains. The socket-outlet shall be installed
near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
Opening or dismantling the main unit or any of its accessories, for whatever
reason, could lead to damages that are not covered by the guarantee.
To avoid electrical shock, do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified
personnel only.
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose your computer or any of its
accessories to rain or moisture.
To prevent possible damage and risk of ignition to your computer during
transportation, first attach any supplied connector covers and slot protectors in
their appropriate locations, and secure the battery pack in the battery
compartment if it is removable.
Always keep the battery pack installed while the computer is in use (for models
with the removable battery pack).
Do not short-circuit the metal terminals of the battery pack or wet them with any
liquid, for example water, coffee or juice.
Locations directly exposed to sunlight or heaters should be avoided. Internal
overheating could result in fire or damage of the unit.
Do not block the air exhaust or intake vents while the computer is in operation.
Blocking the air vents leads to restriction on air circulation, which can cause
internal overheating, resulting in deformation of the computer, a malfunction, or a
fire hazard.
Observe the following precautions to provide adequate air circulation and to
ensure normal reliable operation.
Do not use the computer on any cloth-covered surfaces such as rugs, cushion
or blankets, near draperies, or on dusty surfaces that may block its air vents.
Always use the computer on flat surfaces.
Do not use the computer and/or the AC adapter while covered or wrapped in
cloth. Ensure the AC adapter operates in a clear environment.
Before putting your computer in a bag, turn off the computer or place it into
Sleep mode. If the computer is equipped with the power indicator, make sure
the power indicator light is off.
This apparatus is also designed for IT power distribution system with phase to
phase voltage 230V, for customers in Norway.
Audio and picture distortion may occur if this equipment is positioned in close
proximity to any equipment emitting electromagnetic radiation.
Emissions from this inductive device could cause interference to nearby receivers
of other radio services (for models with NFC).
When travelling to and within the United States of America, please be aware that
the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) recently published new regulations
that apply to passengers travelling with lithium metal batteries and lithium ion
batteries.

Do not clean your computer with aerosol products (air dusters, aerosol sprays,
etc.) that contain flammable gas. Doing so may fill the inside of the computer with
gas and if the motors, the switch contacts, or other internal parts of the computer
spark, the gas may ignite and it could cause an explosion or fire.
Keep magnetically sensitive items, such as a magnetic card and ticket, away from
magnetic components of your computer and wireless keyboard (wireless
keyboard supplied models only). Magnetic components may cause data
corruption of magnetically sensitive items.
Keep your computer and wireless keyboard (wireless keyboard supplied models
only) away from an implanted pacemaker. The computer and wireless keyboard
contain magnetic components. Magnetic components may cause a pacemaker to
malfunction.
Check for and respect restrictions on use of wireless capabilities.
If use of the wireless function is prohibited on the airline, disable all wireless
connections before boarding.
For the Windows 8 model, open the charms by pointing to the top right corner of
the screen, then move the pointer down and select the Settings charm. Select the
network icon and then turn on Airplane mode.
For the Windows 7 model, right-click the VAIO Smart Network icon in the desktop
notification area and select the option to disable all wireless connections.
If you urgently need to disable the wireless function, turn off the computer.
For models with a wireless keyboard and/or a wireless mouse, turn off the wireless
devices as well.
Radio waves may cause a malfunction of the aircraft’s equipment, resulting in a
serious accident.
On viewing 3D images
Be sure to follow the instructions in the manuals that came with the 3D display
you use when viewing 3D images.
Some people may experience discomfort (such as eye strain, fatigue, or nausea)
while watching 3D video images or playing stereoscopic 3D games. Sony
recommends that all viewers take regular breaks while watching 3D video images
or playing stereoscopic 3D games. The length and frequency of necessary breaks
will vary from person to person. You must decide what works best. If you
experience any discomfort, you should stop watching the 3D video images or
playing stereoscopic 3D games until the discomfort ends; consult a doctor if you
believe necessary.
You should also see the instruction manual of any other device or software used
with this computer.
The vision of young children (especially those under six years old) is still under
development. Consult your doctor (such as a pediatrician or eye doctor) before
allowing young children to watch 3D video images or play stereoscopic 3D games.
Adults should supervise young children to ensure they follow the
recommendations listed above.
