Care and Maintenance Care and Maintenance If you use your Tablet PC carefully, you will increase its life and reliability. This section provides some tips for looking after the Tablet PC and its devices. ■ The system contains components that can be severely damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). To minimize risk to the components, observe the following precautions: ■ Before docking or undocking your LifeBook notebook (when using a port replicator), it is a good practice to always touch a grounded metal object to discharge static electricity built up in your body. ■ Be sure to power down your system before adding or removing system components. Even if the system is in hibernate or standby states, data could be lost or memory could be damaged if power is still available to the system. ■ When installing or removing a memory module, hold it by the edge so as not to touch any contacts or chips. Be careful not to touch any internal computer terminals or components; the oil from your fingers could cause a short to the components. ■ Electrical equipment may be hazardous if misused. Operations of this product or similar products, must always be supervised by an adult. Do not allow children access to the interior of any electrical products and do not permit them to handle any cables. LIFEBOOK T4200 SERIES TABLET PC Caring for your Tablet PC ■ Your Tablet PC is a durable but sensitive electronic device. Treat it with care. ■ Make a habit of transporting it in a suitable carrying case. ■ Do not attempt to service the computer yourself. Any unauthorized service performed on the computer will void the warranty. ■ To protect your computer from damage and to optimize system performance, be sure to keep all air all vents unobstructed, clean, and clear of debris. This may require periodic cleaning, depending upon the environment in which the system is used. ■ Do not operate the computer in areas where the air vents can be obstructed, such as in tight enclosures or on soft surfaces like a bed or cushion. ■ Always follow installation instructions closely. ■ Keep it away from food and beverages. ■ If you accidentally spill liquid on your Tablet PC: 1. Turn it off. 2. Position it so that the liquid can run out. 3. Let it dry out for 24 hours, or longer if needed. 4. If your Tablet PC will not boot after it has dried out, call your support representative. ■ Do not use your Tablet PC in a wet environment (near a bathtub, swimming pool). ■ Always use the AC adapter and batteries that are approved for your Tablet PC. ■ Avoid exposure to sand, dust and other environmental hazards. ■ Do not expose your Tablet PC to direct sunlight for long periods of time as temperatures above 140° F (60° C) may damage your Tablet PC. ■ Keep the covers closed on the connectors and slots when they are not in use. ■ If you are carrying your Tablet PC in a briefcase, or any other carrying case, make sure that there are no objects in the case pressing on the lid. ■ Do not drop your Tablet PC. ■ Do not put heavy or sharp objects on the computer. ■ Do not touch the screen with any sharp objects. Cleaning your Tablet PC ■ Always disconnect the power plug. (Pull the plug, not the cord.) ■ Clean your Tablet PC with a damp, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasives or solvents. ■ Use a soft cloth to remove dust from the screen. Never use glass cleaners. Storing your Tablet PC ■ If storing your Tablet PC for a month or longer, turn the Tablet PC off, fully charge the battery, then remove and store all Lithium ion batteries. ■ Store your Tablet PC and batteries separately. If you store your Tablet PC with a battery installed, the battery will discharge, and battery life will be reduced. In addition, a faulty battery might damage the Tablet PC. ■ Store your Tablet PC in a cool, dry location. Temperatures should remain between 13º F (-25º C) and 140º F (60º C). 71
