However, certain precautions should be observed to further reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the computer. Be certain to read the general precautions below and to note the cautions included in the text of the manual. Please also refer to the Safety Instruction Manual. Stress injury Carefully read the Safety Instruction Manual. It contains information on prevention of stress injuries to your hands and wrists that can be caused by extensive keyboard use. Chapter 3, Getting Started, also includes information on work space design, posture and lighting that can help reduce physical stress. Heat Warning ■ Avoid prolonged physical contact with the bottom of the computer. If the computer is used for long periods, its surface can become very warm. While the temperature will not feel hot to the touch, if you maintain physical contact with the computer for a long time (if you rest the computer on your lap, for example) your skin might suffer low-heat injury. ■ If the computer has been used for a long time, avoid direct contact with the metal plate supporting the I/O ports. It can become hot. ■ The surface of the AC adaptor can become hot when in use. This condition does not indicate a malfunction. If you need to transport the AC adaptor, disconnect it and let it cool before moving it. ■ Do not lay the AC adaptor on a material that is sensitive to heat. The material could be damaged. Mobile phones Use of mobile phones can interfere with the PC sound system. The PC operation is not impaired but it is recommended that a distance of 30 cm is maintained between the PC & the mobile phone.
