Taking Care of the Computer

Location Guidelines

• For optimal performance, use the computer where the recommended temperature is within 0 °C (32 °F) \~ 40 °C (104 °F).
• Avoid placing the computer in a location subject to high humidity, extreme temperatures, mechanical vibration, or heavy dust. Using in extreme environments for long periods can result in product deterioration and a shortened product life.
• Operating in an environment with metallic dust is not allowed.
• Place the computer on a flat and steady surface. Do not stand the computer on its side or store it in an upside-down position. A strong impact by dropping or hitting may damage the computer.

• Do not cover or block any ventilation openings on the computer. For example, do not place the computer on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Otherwise, overheating may occur that results in damage to the computer.

• As the computer can become very hot during operation, keep it away from objects that are vulnerable to heat.

• Keep the computer at least 13 cm (5 inches) away from electrical appliances that can generate a strong magnetic field such as a TV, refrigerator, motor, or a large audio speaker.
• Avoid moving the computer abruptly from a cold to a warm place. A temperature difference of more than 10 °C (18 °F) may cause condensation inside the unit, which may damage the storage media.

General Guidelines

• Do not place heavy objects on top of the computer as this may damage the display.
• Do not move the computer simply by grasping the display screen.
• To avoid damaging the screen, do not touch it with any sharp object.
• LCD image sticking occurs when a fixed pattern is displayed on the screen for a prolonged period of time. You can avoid the problem by limiting the amount of static content on the display. It is recommended that you use a screen saver or turn off the display when it is not in use.
• To maximize the life of the backlight in the display, allow the backlight to automatically turn off as a result of power management.

Cleaning Guidelines

• Never clean the computer with its power on.
• Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the exterior surfaces of the computer.
• Dust or grease on the touchpad can affect its sensitivity. Clean the pad by using adhesive tape to remove the dust and grease on its surface.
• If water or liquid is split onto the computer, wipe it dry and clean when possible. Do not leave the computer wet when you can dry it.
• In case water or liquid is spilt into the keyboard, immediately turn off the computer and unplug the AC adapter. Then turn the keyboard upside down to drain the liquid out of the keyboard. Make sure to clean up any part of the spill you can get to. Though the keyboard of your computer is spill-proof, liquid will remain in the keyboard enclosure if you don't remove it.
• If the computer gets wet where the temperature is 0 °C (32 °F) or below, freeze damage may occur. Make sure to dry the wet computer.

Battery Pack Guidelines

• To charge the battery, connect the AC adapter to the computer and an electrical outlet. The Battery Indicator on the computer glows amber to indicate charging is in progress. When the battery is fully charged, the Battery Indicator glows green.
• Recharge the battery pack when it is nearly discharged. When recharging, make sure that the battery pack is fully charged. Doing so may avoid harm to the battery pack.
• The battery pack is a consumable product and the following conditions will shorten its life:
• when frequently charging the battery
• when using, charging, or storing the battery in high temperature condition
• To avoid hastening the deterioration of the battery pack thereby prolonging its useful life, minimize the number of times you charge it so as not to frequently increase its internal temperature.
• Charge the battery pack between 10°C \~ 30°C (50°F \~ 86°F) temperature range. A higher environment temperature will cause the battery pack's temperature to rise. Avoid charging the battery pack inside a closed vehicle and in hot weather condition. Also, charging will not start if the battery pack is not within the allowed temperature range.
• It is recommended that you do not charge the battery pack more than once a day.
• It is recommended that you charge the battery pack with the computer's power off.
• To maintain the battery pack's operating efficiency when removed from the computer, store it in a cool dark place and with 30% \~ 40% charge remaining.
• Important guidelines When installing or removing the battery pack take note of the following:
• avoid installing or removing the battery pack when the computer is in Sleep mode. Abruptly removing the battery pack may cause loss of data or the computer may become unstable.
• avoid touching the battery pack terminals or damage may occur, causing improper operation to it or the computer.
  The computer's input voltage and surrounding temperature will directly affect the charge and discharge time:
• charging time will be prolonged when the computer is turned on. To shorten the charging time, it is recommended that you place the computer in Sleep or hibernation mode.

- a low temperature will prolong the charging time as well as hasten the discharge time.

• When using battery power in an extremely low temperature environment, you may experience shortened operating time and incorrect battery level reading. This phenomenon comes from the chemical characteristics of batteries. The appropriate operating temperature for the battery is -10 °C \~ 50 °C (14 °F \~ 122 °F).
• Do not leave the battery pack in storage for more than six months without recharging it.

Touchscreen Guidelines (Select Models Only)

• Use the finger or the included stylus on the display. Using a sharp or metallic object may cause scratches and damage the display, thereby causing errors.
• Use a soft cloth to remove dirt on the display. The touchscreen surface has a special protective coating that prevents dirt from sticking to it. Not using a soft cloth may cause damage to the special protective coating on the touchscreen surface.
• Turn off the computer power when cleaning the display. Cleaning with the power on may cause improper operation.
• Do not use excessive force on the display. Avoid placing objects on top of the display as this may cause the glass to break thereby damaging the display.
• In low and high temperatures (below 5 °C / 41 °F and above 60 °C / 140 °F), the touchscreen may have a slower response time or register the touch in the wrong location. It will go back to normal after returning to room temperature.
• When there is a noticeable discrepancy in the placement of the stylus on the screen and the indicated position of the onscreen pointer, use the calibration utility to recalibrate the touchscreen display.
