buildings use digital telephone extension lines, so check before
connecting the telephone cable in such places.
Do not leave the base of your computer in contact with your lap
or any part of your body for an extended period when the
computer is functioning or when the battery is charging. Your
computer dissipates some heat during normal operation. This
heat is a function of the level of system activity and battery
charge level. Extended contact with your body, even through
clothing, could cause discomfort or, eventually, a skin burn.
ThinkPad do's
Treat your computer like precision electronic machinery.
When installing your hard disk, diskette, or CD-ROM drive,
follow the instructions in this online book and apply pressure
only where needed on the device.
When installing the CD-ROM or diskette drive into the
UltraslimBay, make sure the AC Adapter is disconnected from
your computer.
If you exchange drives in your computer, reinstall the plastic
bezel faces (if supplied).
Store your external and removable hard disk, diskette, and
CD-ROM drives in the appropriate container or packaging when
they are not being used.
Choose a quality carrying case that will protect your computer.
Store packing materials safely out of reach of children to
prevent the risk of suffocation from plastic bags.
Register your ThinkPad products with IBM (refer to the
Setup
Guide
). This can help authorities return your computer to you if
it is lost or stolen. Registering your computer also enables IBM
to notify you about possible upgrades.
Check the IBM Web pages (http://www.ibm.com/thinkpad/)
periodically to get current information about your computer.
Cleaning your computer
Occasionally clean your computer as follows:
Use a soft cloth moistened with nonalkaline detergent to wipe
the exterior of the computer.
Don't spray cleaner directly on the display or keyboard.
Gently wipe the LCD with a dry, soft cloth.
