■
Use of mobile phones can interfere with the sound system. The tablet
operation is not impaired but we recommend that a distance of 30 cm be
maintained between the tablet and the mobile phone.
■
When you move your tablet between environments with very different
humidity or temperature ranges, condensation may form on or within the
tablet. To avoid damaging the tablet, allow sufficient time for the moisture
to evaporate before using the tablet.
■
When traveling, do not check the tablet as baggage. You can put your tablet
through an X-ray security machine, but never put your tablet through a
metal detector. If you have the tablet checked by hand, be sure to have a
charged battery available in case you are asked to turn on the tablet.
■
When traveling with the hard drive removed from the tablet, wrap the
drive in a non-conducting material, such as cloth or paper.
■
When traveling, do not place the tablet in overhead storage compartments
where it could slide around. Do not drop your tablet or subject it to other
physical shocks.
■
To completely turn off all tablet power, turn the tablet off, remove the
battery, and disconnect the AC adapter from the electrical outlet.
■
Do not apply heavy pressure to the tablet or subject it to strong impact.
Excessive pressure or impact can cause damage to tablet components or
otherwise cause malfunctions.
■
Some PC Cards can become hot with prolonged use. Overheating of a
PC Card can result in errors or instability in the card’s operation. Be careful
when you remove a PC Card that has been used for extended periods.
Warning
The base of the tablet can become very warm. Although
the temperature will not be too hot to the touch, prolonged
physical contact may result in a temporary heat imprint on
the skin. We recommend that prolonged physical contact
be avoided.
If the tablet has been in use for a long time, avoid direct
contact with the metal plate supporting the ports because
it can become hot.
