Before You Start

1
This manual will help you get the most from your computer. If you are a less experienced user, you should read through the manual carefully before using your computer.

Important Things to Remember Before Working on Your Computer

Let your Computer acclimatize itself

Rapid changes in temperature such as those from the cold outdoors to a warm office would not be suitable for your system.
Do not power up your system immediately if it has been exposed to hot or cold conditions. Instead, allow the sys tem to adjust gradually to room temperat ure over a three to four hour period.

Placement of your Computer

Choose a suitable place for your system that’s not too hot, too cold, too dark, or too bright. Glare can make it difficult to read the screen.
¾ Allow sufficient air circulation around the computer when you are
working indoors
¾ Try to keep the system components from being destroyed if it is over
heated
¾ Do not block the ventilation opening
2
¾ Do not place your computer in direct sunlight

Suitable place to work

Your computer will run well under most conditions but avoid extreme temperatures and humidity levels.
There are some things you can tolerate that the computer can’t – things like static electricity, dust, water, steam and oil.
A lithium-ion battery pack is included for those who are frequent travelers. When you are running your computer on battery power for the first time, remove the battery from the package, install it into the system and recharge the battery to fully prepare for service.
