Things you must remember before working on your
computer
Let your computer acclimate itself
Your notebook can easily stand temperature extremes but it doesn’t like
rapid changes in temperature, like going from the cold outdoors to a
warm office. Rapid changes in temperature can cause water droplets to
condense inside your case, threatening to damage the electronic parts
inside.
After receiving your notebook when it’s hot or cold outside, try not to
power up the computer immediately, let the computer adjust to the room
temperature gradually at least for three to four hours.
If your system arrives in cold weather, do not apply power to the
computer or monitor until they have been allowed to come to room
temperature.
Heat, Cold, Humidity, and Glare
Find a suitable place for your computer that’s not too hot, too cold, too
dark, or too bright. Glare can make it hard to read the screen.
• Try to avoid the computer components from being destroyed if it is
over heated, so try to allow plenty of room for air to circulate around
the case.
• Do not block the ventilation opening.
• Do not place your computer in direct sunlight.
Suitable place to work
Your computer will run well wherever you’re comfortable but extremes
of temperature and humidity can be challenging to your system’s parts.
There are some things you can tolerate that the computer can’t – things
like static electricity, dust, water, steam and oil. In case you decide to pull
over for roadside computing, try to choose a clean, comfortable work area
for your system.
A lithium-ion battery pack will be available when you are traveling. If
you are running your system for the first time on battery power, remove
the battery from the package, install it into the system and recharge the
battery to fully prepare for service.
