You can use your computer under a wide range of environmental conditions. However, to ensure long
use and continued high performance, consider the following factors when setting up your computer:
 Follow all warnings and instructions noted in this documentation, including the notification
section
 Follow all warnings and instructions noted in Windows Help and Support, found on the Start
Menu
 The first time you use your computer, we recommend that you carefully read the section on
Power Management to familiarize yourself with basic battery information and ensure optimum
performance
 WARNING! There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with
the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries
according to the manufacturer's instructions
 CAUTION Internal components of the Duo-Touch will be damaged if exposed to contaminants.
When dust covers, the PC card door, or the bottom access panel are open on the computer,
shield the unit from all contaminants such as liquids, rain, snow, and dust.
 Unplug the computer from the power outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Do
not use aerosols, solvents, or strong detergents
 Slots and openings in the computer case are for ventilation purposes. Do not block or cover these
openings or the system could overheat

requirements of this system. These requirements must be followed. If you are unsure of your
local power supply, consult your dealer or local power company

devices sharing the extension do not exceed the rating of the extension cord or the rating of the
wall outlet

openings. Dangerous voltages are present, which could cause electric shock, fire, or damage
sensitive components
 For best results, use a power strip with a built-in surge protector. Do not use inferior extension
cords as this may result in damage to your computer
