• Optical drive (CD/CDRW/DVD) constitute class 1 laser equipment providing these devices are contained in a sealed notebook housing. Do not remove the drive cover as invisible laser radiation may escape. • Do not insert anything into the notebook through the slots and openings. This could result in an electric shock or even ignite a fire which will damage your notebook. • The slots and openings on the notebook are for ventilation purposes.
• To avoid damaging the screen, do not touch it with fingers or sharp objects. • Never lift the notebook up by the display as this could break the hinges. • Over time, dust can collect inside the notebook which then blocks the vents. This can lead to an increase in the fan speed and, therefore, also increase the operating volume of your notebook. It can also lead to overheating and malfunctions.
2.4. Data backup PLEASE NOTE! Loss of data! Back up your data to external storage media before each update. We do not accept any liability for claims for compensation arising from loss of data or any consequential loss or damage. 2.5. Setup Location • Keep your notebook and all connected devices away from moisture and avoid dust, heat and direct sunlight. Non-compliance with these instructions can lead to faults or damage to the notebook.
• During a thunderstorm, disconnect the mains plug. For extra safety, we recommend using an overvoltage protection device to prevent the notebook from sustaining damage as a result of power surges or lightning strikes. • After transporting the notebook, wait until the device has reached room temperature before switching it on. Large changes in temperature or fluctuations in humidity can cause moisture build up within the notebook due to condensation. This can cause an electrical short circuit.
screen can prevent dazzling, reflections and excessive brightdark contrast, etc. In many cases, an improvement can also be achieved by using slats or vertical blinds on the windows, partition walls or by changing the artificial lighting equipment. 2.8. Connecting Follow the instructions below to connect your notebook correctly and safely: 2.8.1. Power Supply DANGER! Risk of electrical shock! There are live components inside this mains adapter.
WARNING! Impairment to hearing! Listening through earphones or headphones at excessive volume levels, as well as changes to the basic settings of the equaliser, drivers, software or operating system generates excessive acoustic pressure and can lead to loss of hearing. `` Before pressing play, set the volume to the lowest setting. `` Start playback and increase the volume to a comfortable level. 2.9. Cabling • Position the cables so that they cannot be stepped on or might cause a risk for tripping.
• In addition, when connecting your peripherals only use the connecting cables supplied with those devices. • Ensure that all connection cables are connected to their corresponding peripheral device to avoid any interference radiation. Disconnect any cables that are not required.
To extend your battery’s performance and lifespan and ensure safe operation, you should also observe the guidelines below: • Do not leave the battery pack discharged. The battery pack will discharge over time. If not using a battery pack, it must continue to be charged every three months to extend recovery capacity or else it may fail to charge in future. • Avoid dirt and contact with electrically conductive materials or chemical substances and cleaning agents.
• Do not allow any objects to drop onto the display. • Do not pour any fluids into the notebook, as this could damage it. • Do not scratch the display with your fingernails or hard objects. • Do not clean the display with chemical cleaning products. • Clean the display with a soft, dry and lint-free cloth. PLEASE NOTE! The surfaces of the device are covered in protective film to prevent scratching during production and transport.
