Place the computer on a flat stable surface. Do not place the computer upright. If the computer is exposed to an
extremely strong impact, it may become inoperable.
Temperature:
Operation: 5 °C to 35 °C {41 °F to 95 °F}

Even within the above temperature/humidity ranges, using for a long time in an extreme environment will result in
the product deterioration and will shorten the product life.
