A Tour of Your Computer 29
Bottom View
MODEM/MINI PCI CARD COVER — Covers the compartment that contains the modem and
Mini PCI card. See page 102.
B
ATTERY/BATTERY BAY — When a battery is installed, you can use the computer without
connecting the computer to an electrical outlet. See page 41.
A
IR VENTS — The computer uses an internal fan to create airflow through the vents, which
prevents the computer from overheating.
CAUTION: Do not block, push objects into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air
vents. Do not store your computer in a low-airflow environment, such as a closed
briefcase, while it is running. Restricting the airflow can damage the computer
or cause a fire.
NOTE: The fan runs constantly, and fan speed may vary depending on usage. Fan noise is
normal and does not indicate a problem with the fan or the computer.
