CARE & SAFETY
When used according to the instructions in this manual, the
netBook should remain in good working order for many years.
However, there are certain precautions you should take to
ensure continued trouble-free use:
• Do keep the netBook at a room temperature of 0°Cto
+40°C (+32°F to +104 °F) and avoid sudden extremes in
temperature, exposure to direct sunlight or rain, heat
sources (electric heaters, etc.), dust, sand, and other fine
particles.
• Do keep the netBook away from strong magnetic fields (e.g.
loudspeakers) and sources of static electricity.
• Use only the Psion-approved mains adaptor.
• If you will not be using the netBook for a while, store it in a
place that is dry, free from damp, dust and extremes of heat
and cold.
• Do back up regularly.You can use PsiWin to back up your
netBook to your PC, or you can make backups on a
Memory disk. See the ‘Security & backups’ chapter for more
information.
• To clean the screen: switch the netBook off and use a soft,
clean, dry cloth to gently wipe the keyboard and screen.
Under no circumstances use water or chemical
solvents that may have a corrosive effect. (If the
netBook is set to turn on automatically when you open the
case or tap the screen, you should turn this preference off
before cleaning the screen; see ‘Turning on & off’ for more
information.)
• Do not tap the screen with any object that has a sharp tip
or you may damage the screen. Don’t use any type of ink
pen, as the ink may be impossible to remove. When not in
use, keep the pen supplied with the netBook in its storage
compartment.
• Do not immerse the netBook in water, or any other liquid,
or spill liquids onto it.
• Do not drop, throw, or try to bend the netBook, or press
the keys with extreme force.
• Do not keep the netBook next to credit cards or transport
tickets; the speaker magnet could corrupt the information
on the magnetic strip.
• Do not attempt to dismantle the netBook. There are no
user-serviceable parts inside and any attempt to do so will
render the warranty void.
• Do not remove the main batteries and backup battery at
the same time when replacing them; you will lose all your
information if you do this.
