Component Description
1 Security cable slot Attaches an optional security cable
to the computer.

The security cable is designed
to act as a deterrent, but may
not prevent the computer from
being mishandled or stolen.
2 Vent* Provides airflow to cool internal
components.
Ä
To prevent overheating, do
not obstruct vents. Use the
computer only on a hard, flat
surface. Do not allow another
hard surface, such as an
adjoining optional printer, or a
soft surface, such as pillows or
thick rugs or clothing, to block
airflow.

The computer fan starts up
automatically to cool internal
components and prevent
overheating. It is normal for the
internal fan to cycle on and off
during routine operation
