Precautions >
Handling Your Computer
❑
Do not place electronic equipment near your computer. The electromagnetic field of the equipment may cause the
computer to malfunction.
❑
Use your computer on a solid, stable surface.
❑
Provide adequate air circulation to prevent internal overheating. Do not place your computer on porous surfaces such as
rugs, blankets, couches, or beds, or near draperies that may block its air vents.
❑
Do not use your computer directly on your lap. The temperature of the base of the unit will rise during normal operation
and over time could result in discomfort or burns.
❑
Your computer uses high-frequency radio signals and may cause interference to radio or TV reception. If this occurs,
relocate the computer a suitable distance away from the set.
❑
Use only specified peripheral equipment and interface cables. Otherwise, problems may occur.
❑
Do not use cut or damaged connection cables.
❑
If your computer is brought directly from a cold location to a warm one, moisture may condense inside the computer. In
such a case, allow at least one hour before turning on the computer. If any problems occur, unplug the computer and
contact an authorized Sony Service Center. To find the nearest center or agent, see
