Precautions
The CF-M34 was developed based on thorough research into
the real-world portable computing environments. Exhaustive pur-
suit of usability and reliability under harsh conditions led to in-
novations such has the magnesium alloy exterior, vibration
damped hard disk drive and floppy disk drive, flexible internal
connections. The CF-M34’s outstanding engineering has been
tested using the stiff MIL-STD- 810E (for vibration and shock)
and IP (for dust and water) based procedures.
As with any portable computer device precautions should be
taken to avoid any damage. The following usage and handling
procedures are recommended.
Before putting the computer away, be sure to wipe off any
moisture.
Avoid low-temperature burns
Avoid more than casual contact with any heat pro-
ducing area of the notebook computer, power adap-
tor, and any option or accessory you use with it. Even
low heat, if warmer than body temperature, can cause
a burn, if the skin is exposed to the heat source for a
long enough period of time.
