- Keep the computer at least 13 cm (5 inches) away from electrical appliances that can generate a strong magnetic field
such as a TV, refrigerator, motor, or a large audio speaker.
- Do not move the computer abruptly from a cold to a warm place. A temperature difference of more than 10 °C (18 °F)
will cause condensation inside the unit, which may damage the storage media.

General Guidelines
- Do not place heavy objects on top of the computer when it is closed as this may damage the display.
- The screen surface is easily scratched. Do not use paper towels to clean the display. Avoid touching it with your fingers, pen,
