Precautions To ensure maximum usability of your word processor, please follow these recommendations: WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shocks, do not attempt to disassemble the unit. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Some components inside the unit use high voltages that can be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock. Any servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel. • In case of malfunction, overheating, or other problems, immediately disconnect the AC plug and contact qualified service personnel. • Do not attempt to disassemble the word processor. It has no user-serviceable parts inside. • Do not tug on the power cords or on the signal cable. To disconnect, be sure to always grasp the plug itself. • Avoid dropping the word processor. • Avoid direct exposure to sunlight and other sources of heat. • Avoid spills. If any liquid enters the word processor, immediately disconnect the AC plug and contact qualified service personnel. • Avoid locations subject to excessive moisture or dust. • Do not use sprays in the vicinity of the word processor. Aerosols are extremely harmful to the disk drive. • Disconnect the AC plugs during thunderstorms. • Do not place heavy objects on the keyboard. • Always keep the air vents free from obstruction to avoid overheating the word processor. • Clean with a soft, dry cloth only. Avoid using chemicals, solvents, and detergents. • To avoid interference, do not place the word processor too close to a radio or television. If the word processor is too close to a television set, the disk drive may not work properly. For the same reason, do not place the monitor too close to the word processor. • If you switch the word processor off, wait at least 10 seconds before switching it on again. Failure to wait 10 seconds may disrupt the start-up sequence, resulting in faulty operation and possible hardware damage. • Never touch the rubber or metal parts in the BOOKMAN® card compartment as this could cause damage.
