4.5. 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.
• Do not use the notebook outdoors because external elements,
such as rain, snow, etc., could damage it.
• Set up and operate all components on a stable, level and
vibration-free surface to prevent the notebook from falling
down.
• Do not operate the notebook or power adaptor for long
periods on your lap or any other body part as the heat
dissipation on the underside can result in uncomfortable
overheating.
• This device is not suitable for use with VDU workstations.
4.6. Environmental Requirements
• The notebook is most reliably operated at an ambient
temperature between 5 °C (+41 °F) and 30 °C (+86 °F) and
at a relative humidity between 20% and 80% (without
condensation).
• When powered off, the notebook can be stored at
temperatures between 0 °C and 60 °C (+32 °F and 140 °F).
• During a thunderstorm, unplug the AC adapter from the wall
outlet. 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.
• Keep the original packaging in the event the device needs to
be sent in for repairs.
