Safety Information and Caution
For questions regarding your product or for the Sony Service Center nearest you, visit the Sony online support
Web site at http://esupport.sony.com/EN/VAIO/ for customers in USA or at http://www.sony.ca/support/ for
customers in Canada.
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose your computer to rain or moisture.
To avoid electrical shock, do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
Turning off your computer with the power button or the power switch 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.
Do not use your computer directly on your lap. The temperature of the base of the unit will 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.
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.
Turn off the computer and make sure the power indicator light is unlit before putting the computer
into a bag or a carrying case.
When holding the computer, be sure to wait until it cools down. The surface around the air exhaust vent
may be extremely hot.
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.
Always keep the battery pack installed while the computer is in use.
Do not use or store your computer in a location subject to heat sources, such as radiators or air ducts; direct
sunlight; excessive dust; moisture or rain; mechanical vibration or shock; strong magnets or speakers that
are not magnetically shielded; excessively high and low temperatures; and high humidity.
For information on how to replace the battery pack, refer to the leaflet that came with your VAIO® computer.
Do not charge the battery pack in any way other than as described in the user guide or as designated by
Sony in writing.
For your safety, Sony recommends using the genuine Sony battery pack and AC adapter that are provided
with this product. If either of these items needs to be replaced during the life of the product, be sure to use a
compatible genuine Sony battery pack or AC adapter. Information about compatible models can be found at
http://www.sony.net/.
Sony disclaims and shall assume no responsibility in case of any losses and damages arising from:
the use of non-genuine Sony battery packs or AC adapters with your VAIO® computer.
the disassembly, alteration of, or tampering with any Sony battery pack.
Do not use wireless functionality on hospital premises. Doing so may cause medical devices to malfunction.
Check for and respect airline restrictions on use of wireless capabilities. If use of the wireless function is
prohibited on the airline, turn off the WIRELESS switch on your computer before boarding.

If using wireless functionality near a pacemaker, make sure it is at least 8 inches / 20 cm away from the
pacemaker.
Sony is not responsible for any interference that you may experience or that may be caused when operating
this device.
On viewing 3D images (for 3D-capable models only)
Be sure to follow the instructions in the manuals that came with your VAIO® computer when viewing 3D
images.
Some people may experience discomfort (such as eye strain, fatigue, or nausea) while watching 3D video
images or using stereoscopic 3D-related software. Sony recommends that all viewers take regular breaks
while watching 3D video images or using stereoscopic 3D-related software. 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 using stereoscopic 3D-related software 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
use stereoscopic 3D-related software. Adults should supervise young children to ensure they follow the
recommendations listed above.
