Safety Information and Caution For questions regarding your product or for the Sony Service Center nearest you, visit the Sony online support web site at http://esupport.sony.com/US/VAIO/ for customers in USA or at http://www.sony.ca/support/ for customers in Canada. For the State of California, USA only Perchlorate Material - special handling may apply, See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate/ Perchlorate Material: Lithium battery contains perchlorate. To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose your computer to rain or moisture. To avoid electrical shock, do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only. Turning off your computer with the (power) button does not disconnect the computer completely from mains voltage. To disconnect it completely, unplug the AC adapter or the power cable from mains. The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible. Do not place the AC adapter in contact with your skin. Remove the AC adapter away from your body if it becomes warm and causes discomfort. Do not block the air exhaust or intake vents while the computer is in operation. Blocking the air vents leads to restriction on air circulation, which can cause internal overheating, resulting in deformation of the computer, a malfunction, or a fire hazard. Observe the following precautions to provide adequate air circulation and to ensure normal reliable operation: Do not use the computer on any cloth covered surfaces such as rugs, cushion or blankets, near draperies, or on dusty surfaces that may block its air vents. Always use the computer on flat surfaces. Do not use the computer and/or the AC adapter while covered or wrapped in cloth. Ensure the AC adapter operates in a clear environment. Before putting your computer in a bag, turn off the computer or place it into Sleep mode. If the computer is equipped with the power indicator, make sure the power indicator light is off. When holding the computer, be sure to wait until it cools down. The surface around the air exhaust vent may be extremely hot. Do not use or store your computer in a location subject to heat sources, such as radiators or air ducts; direct sunlight; excessive dust; moisture or rain; mechanical vibration or shock; strong magnets or speakers that are not magnetically shielded; excessively high and low temperatures; and high humidity. Sony recommends using the genuine Sony AC adapter that is provided with this product. If the item needs to be replaced during the life of the product, be sure to use a compatible genuine Sony AC adapter. Information about compatible models can be found at http://www.sony.net/.
